TMC 0563 Plate Carrier - Tan

"My buddy had one and I tried it on and loved it. I then went on here and got one. I loved it.

"This is an update to my last review. As of March 2020, I still have few complaints, but noticed that I didnt go into some other details. Since I have had it for so long, I reinforced the shoulder straps with foam and padding. The default ones on most plate carriers to be fair are bad. I'm smaller framed, I am 5 foot 8 and 56kg, so I did have to re adjust the cummerbund, but if you're savvy with paracord or able to replicate knots, it should be no bother. I've had other plate carriers over the years but never got rid of this one and always went back. The velcro after now 4 years is still tight, the MOLLE still holds firm, and often times is STILL to this day, painful at times on the finger tips when changing pouches lol. The built in mag pouch is alright, I still use it but I have cut it down and tailored it to be better. Still those are very few complaints for such an affordable rig. It's meant to resemble the LBT 0694 and LBX 0300, but it's still unique. It's well cut, has the ability to carry 5 mags with no external pouches due to the two MBITR pouches built into the cumberbund, which as of feburary 2020 I replaced with a Kryptec Mandrake JPC cumberbund. Overall, you honestly cannot go wrong with this rig. 4 years strong and been across the United States through all sorts of AOs and inclimant weather. Still 5 stars.

"So I have owned this rig for three years as of 2019. I purchased it in 2016 and ran this at 4 milsims and at every pickup games, used and abused the Webbing, put the MOLLE through countless pouches changes and rig setups. Mississippi rain and Alabama mud, Texan temperatures, or Virginia brush, Shelby's MOUNTand Copperheads glass, this plate carrier still feels like I did when I bought it. Totally worth more than its weight in gold. Five stars.
