My pack is on it's way and I'll attach as well like you have. Defense Mechanisms makes a strap kit that attaches that allows you to pull 2 tabs and then flip the pack off over your head. Will get that later. I have to say though, the Agilite placard and pouches are far superior to anything else out there and are affordable. Use those in conjunction with this kit and love it.

Cool, whatever works for you. I stayed with Tacticon for 2 reasons. First everything has a no questions asked lifetime warranty. 2. I'm working on a small sponsorship with Tacticon Armament. It would not look favorable to Tacticon Armament if my Elite plate carrier is mix matched with other brands. I always tell ppl "you do you". I Cerakote and I make the customer pick out the colors. If its not what they like, they purchase another color and pay twice for the labor.

You should move the pouch that is near your pistol in the front side of you. It will be in your way when you take a knee or go prone. The AR pouches you have on your left hip side you can do of 2 things. 1 don’t use the 30 round mags, use 20 rounders. That will help. Or 2 buy a better pouch that sits lower on your hip.

@christaylor5189 My first videos were very green as I was not into the PC game. I have trained with it extensively. My expertise is in building, tuning, customizing, stippling and Cerakoteing AR'S and Glock, and Glock clones. PC's are not my specialty. You can have too many aspects going on at one time. I ran a collision shop for 19yrs, so I'm well familiar with overloaded weeks. I've trained with all 3 of my PC'. Diritum plates make it much easier, or even polyethylene plates. The PC you see, isn't my Agilite K1, it's a TA knock offfp, but let me not mislead you. It is tough as nails. The 3 of 7 course, B&H course and a Achilles courses are legit. In the video I didn't know how to properly wear a PC. I do now, and that $70 TA knock off has been bullet proof. I can't say a bad thing about it. Even so firearms, AR'S and Glocks are my wheelhouse, not PC's, but I've learned much from, Chadd, Mike, and David. Thanks for watching the video and drop a Sub, like and a share.

TA run sales all the time. I've had 3 PC'S. This is by far the best one I've ever wore. Fit, finish, adaptation and cost. Its legit. Thanks for watching the video!
So, I have a question what plates are you using is they look extremely thin and where did you get them from if you don't mind me asking?
My pack is on it's way and I'll attach as well like you have. Defense Mechanisms makes a strap kit that attaches that allows you to pull 2 tabs and then flip the pack off over your head. Will get that later. I have to say though, the Agilite placard and pouches are far superior to anything else out there and are affordable. Use those in conjunction with this kit and love it.

Cool, whatever works for you. I stayed with Tacticon for 2 reasons. First everything has a no questions asked lifetime warranty. 2. I'm working on a small sponsorship with Tacticon Armament. It would not look favorable to Tacticon Armament if my Elite plate carrier is mix matched with other brands. I always tell ppl "you do you". I Cerakote and I make the customer pick out the colors. If its not what they like, they purchase another color and pay twice for the labor.

Is the seams at the mouth where the plates go coming apart for you? I just got it 😢
You should move the pouch that is near your pistol in the front side of you. It will be in your way when you take a knee or go prone. The AR pouches you have on your left hip side you can do of 2 things. 1 don’t use the 30 round mags, use 20 rounders. That will help. Or 2 buy a better pouch that sits lower on your hip.

@christaylor5189 My first videos were very green as I was not into the PC game. I have trained with it extensively. My expertise is in building, tuning, customizing, stippling and Cerakoteing AR'S and Glock, and Glock clones. PC's are not my specialty. You can have too many aspects going on at one time. I ran a collision shop for 19yrs, so I'm well familiar with overloaded weeks. I've trained with all 3 of my PC'. Diritum plates make it much easier, or even polyethylene plates. The PC you see, isn't my Agilite K1, it's a TA knock offfp, but let me not mislead you. It is tough as nails. The 3 of 7 course, B&H course and a Achilles courses are legit. In the video I didn't know how to properly wear a PC. I do now, and that $70 TA knock off has been bullet proof. I can't say a bad thing about it. Even so firearms, AR'S and Glocks are my wheelhouse, not PC's, but I've learned much from, Chadd, Mike, and David. Thanks for watching the video and drop a Sub, like and a share.
