I like side plates, I seen to many soldiers in Iraq & Afghanistan take shrapnel or a shot in the side. My two greatest fears were always being shot in the face or in the side.

Is it because when you get shot in the face if it doesn’t hit the brain stem you will still be alive to experience the pain and slow death while choking on your blood?

This. Wear your fucking side plates. If you feel lime you need a pc, you need side plates.

Side shots are probably the most deadly body shots you can take. Hunters specifically go for side shots because you can easily get both lungs and sometimes double lung and heart. Getting one lung perforated is one thing but both and it's basically guaranteed to be over.

Using crye avs with spiritus side armour pouches with soft armour packs in it. Decided to buy a pair of 6x6 hard armour plates after this video. Thanks

My plate carrier side AP plates are taller than the side pouches... I just had Korean lady sow in longer Velcro to fit plate...which brings coverage upto under armpit

Good video

Wow cool!

Modified pouch for 8x10 flexible rifle plate would be interesting

Thank you😺

Any plans for a 6x8 version?

Ive always run 6x8 hard in the weak side plate to the front and strong side to the rear. It stops blind spots from the front and back.

I assume you'd use a 6x6 on the strong side? That sorta lines up with a somewhat bladed shooting stance doesn't it? And I guess it's less likely to obstruct a sidearm draw probably?

@@ShepherdOfTheSilkies So a 6x8 on each side isn't too bulky or cumbersome, is it?

I get wearing a side plate for forward on the weak side for rifle presentation. Is there good justifiable reasons for wearing side armor tword the rear on the strong side?

Always put mine a little further back not a big fan of side plates, comfortability is a big part in it but usually still wear them.

Give it like 6 months or so and probably. If you want something similar, get the Blue Force Gear triple mag elastic pouch.

So, if I'm understanding this right this means that if you only have 6x6 then you don't need a cap?
