Matrix 600D MOLLE Plate Carrier Tactical Package with Hydration Carrier
(Color: Woodland)

"Pros:
- $40 for a molle plate carrier w/ functional, removable 2L hydration pack (if there is a sale)
- Durable material that can withstand high-FPS bbs, and it can take medium-size plates from the bottom openings to add more protection
- Adjustable side straps to fit my large body size (36" waist and 40" chest)
- Removable mag pouches for M4/AK series magazines and three pistol-size items (can be tourniquet or energy bar). It also has retention cords to keep magazines in place and allows quick-draw reloading
- Comfortable and easy to wear (buckle is redesigned to place on the front!)
- Wide color choice to suit different load-outs

Cons:
- Doesn't come with dummy plates and not the best quality with random threads poking out, but hey, $40
- No side panels for side protection, but this can be fixed by putting two rectangular panels on the side (such as an EMT pouch https://www.evike.com/products/25442/, but it's cheaper on Amazon)
- Not very breathable if tight it up
- Shoulder strap has limited adjustability and no molle webbing
- Hard to attach shoulder protector or lower torso

Small issues:
- The hydration nozzle needs some work to fix at the front through loops on the shoulder strap
- Only one thin strip of velcro on the hydration pack
- Collar can get in the way while ADS
- If using AK mags, it will be hard to add a larger admin pouch on the chest

Verdict:
Comes with functionality, comfort, and affordability, the plate carrier might be the best one for beginner and intermediate players. This carrier can also be a great DIY kit for modifications since it is very cheap and durable. Not the most tacticool plate carrier, but it can get the job done with a much lower price tag.
