That would be awesome.

This is pretty damn concealable.

I’ve considered doing this. It would probably work but would still probably have some weird slack but it’s definitely an interesting option.

I intended to give that a shot but never got around to it. I don’t think it would be ideal by a long shot.

I have used it with just the hard armor and it works fine. Definitely much less comfortable but not horrible

@@Rhetticle0821 gettin shot by a rifle isn't that comfortable lol

@@Mindstangle ya don’t say..

It is hotter. Having worn BALCS a good bit though, it isn’t too bad.

I think it’s a wildly different animal.

But yes… $2k carriers are obsolete with respect to current offerings.

It will travel fine without the frame so long as you put two seconds of thought into it.

Exceptionally

I use mine under a suit. It has "pec enhancements" (not sure what else to call it). I think it makes me look better than I actually do but on my friends who have tried it on who have much larger pecs it's a bit strange-looking. You could cover with proper tailoring. It's a great vest for IIIA protection, my favorite and I have tried many. A bit sweaty like all body armor in hot weather or extreme physical activity, it is pretty annoying to conceal a vest and a pistol if your work is at all wrestle-y or involves a lot of getting in and out of vehicles, but this one works better than any other I've tried. You will probably definitely want a canted holster, a smaller framed pistol like a G19 if you're of average size, I push my holster a bit past the 3 o'clock which violates my organization's SOP, but it's also a testament to the vest that you can move so much with it on whereas previous vests haven't had this issue because they severely restricted my movement. I have the patrol cut.

@@Mindstangle I think I was actually looking at a patrol cut version. I appreciate all the input.

Base vest would conceal extremely well. An issue I’ve run into is if you’re also concealing a firearm, holster rash is a bit more unnerving with the base vest vs having a typical soft armor carrier. Covert carrier would provide a sacrificial layer. Also gives you something to actually wash if it sees constant use. Does kinda defeat the idea of the LVS being ‘its own carrier’ though.

It’s hard to beat a sleeper if you are working slick but I like this cut more than balcs.

@@EODFish Thanks bro. I guess Ill give this a go. I dont always run slick, and the ability to run a placard is a definite win. The sleeper was just a bit too low profile for me.

Yes

I mean a pico costs more so…

oh definitely, it's up there with the plate frame

Are you looking for the whole thing? If so, I can part with this.

@@EODFish you still selling it?

@zf436 sold

Medium

@@EODFish thanks!

what is your height sir @@EODFish

This is by far the best soft armor setup I have tried. For BALCS though, the First Spear Sleeper.

i appreciate the response! I have point blank armor..im considering this or velocity systems at this time. @@EODFish

Medium, 5’10”

@@EODFish does the medium vest cover till your bellybutton or goes more down

@@nicoz8796 If anything it just made it to my belly button barely

Ok thank you

Sure

It is
