Ferro Concepts FCPCV5: Gear Breakdown and Sneak Peek of New Upgrades

Рет қаралды 65,286

Жыл бұрын

In this video, the OTG crew pairs up with Ferro Concepts to discuss the FCPCV5, and the new soft armor panels and radio pouch that will be released early next year (2023).
Full disclosure, I (Jared) really did not want to like this armor system. I’ve never been a fan of the skateboarder marketing vibe, and I preferred to go with companies like Mayflower, or Crye for their time tested reliability. But, as soon as I put on the FCPC with the side armor, I was converted. Truly the best low profile Structural stabilization I have found. I gave away my Velocity SCARAB. The FCPC is better even than the Crye AVS, which I also have, as the stabilization comes with 3A protection and far less girth than the AVS.
Also, let the record reflect none of us have been paid to say any of these things, and we have been evaluating the kit in a variety of conditions for a while now. We are simply evaluating the equipment and giving feedback from an end user perspective to help in future improvements.

Yeah been running it like that a long time, tried magnets and other cummerbund mounts but had more issues. This is a Blackhawk “weapons catch”, they still make them.

Overall it’s a cool carrier. Love the side armor taking the weight off the shoulders. Where I’m at we have to run hard plates on the side though. Wish there was a way to have both.

@Masta_E 4 ай бұрын

Another option if you are running hard side plates are the spiritus options. They have a pocket that takes a solid plates and soft 3a behind it that wraps around similarly to Ferro.

@BabaNovac792 6 ай бұрын

Hello guys, a question for you ( the answer could help many others buying over internet) : How did you go about figuring out what size to order for your cummerbunds, seeing that you all have different waist sizes and you all have to take into account the usage of soft body armor (also maybe hard armor) but also inner radio pouches....and that those elements need to be taken into consideration before ordering a (needed) given cummerbund size?

I stuck mine between the back of the plate carrier and the flap that holds the plate in place. It works great. But my biggest concern is Velcro that holds in the insert in place.

@WarSport Жыл бұрын

A little late so I hope you see this! Just an initial guess, Do you think the side plate system would be compatible with my current spiritus lv119? I can’t justify a new plate carrier over what I have but the slide plate system is just what I’ve been looking for from a coverage standpoint.

@oriontraininggroupllc2782 Жыл бұрын

It interfaces directly to the 3AC with corresponding hook and loop panels, so if the LV119 cbund you have allows for that, then perhaps.

No problems getting a new cummerbund if it’s needed to support the side armor. Thanks!

The Spiritus LV-119 and Ferro FCPV5 are nearly identical in price, between the two, which one is more suited to the hot and humid environment of Louisiana?

@MrSwccguy Жыл бұрын

Definitely the V5

@oriontraininggroupllc2782 Жыл бұрын

Identical in price, V5 light years ahead in modularity and function in my opinion (having used both). I abhor the shoulder straps on the LV119. As far as hot and humid weather, that’s more to do with base layer and keeping the plates off your body a bit (like pontoons or the way the soft armor panels on the V5 allow a space to breathe). I wouldn’t say one or the other is necessarily better for that reason alone, unless you’re running some kind of spacer on either one.
