Premier Body Armor Core Plate Carrier w/ Level IIIA Cummerbund Armor - Ranger Green

THIS IS THE LAST PLATE CARRIER YOU WILL NEED FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

Balancing durability and high-speed performance, the Core Plate Carrier delivers all the duties of a solid plate carrier; lightweight/high speed, extreme durability, modern technology, and compatibility with any type of armor. The Core Plate Carrier is the foundational chassis for every mission.

Seamlessly integrated traditional molle webbing and velcro-covered laser-cut molle sections, make carrying a heavy kit just as natural as going lite. A chest placard can be easily attached to the full-field of velcro on the front of the plate carrier, and medical gear, hydration bladders, and more can be added on the rear. Both the outside and inside of the cummerbund feature traditional molle webbing so you can add gear on either side.

The Core Plate Carrier is meant for those looking for a high-performance, American Made PC to be the foundation of their tactical kit. Read our PBA Blog: A Guide for Your Plate Carrier Setup to learn more!

Sizing
The Core Plate Carrier has laced paracord located at the back of the vest to provide comfort and adjustability. When adding plates to the carrier, it will naturally have a more snug fit. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up.

FAQ

• Is body armor legal?
  Body Armour Control Act
  
  
• What if I'm between sizes? Or on the border for the next size up?
  While the carrier itself fits true to size, inserting plates will cause the carrier to have a tighter fit. Because of this, we recommend sizing up one (1) size if you are between or on the border of two sizes. The laced paracord in the back of the vest can help provide the most comfortable fit.
  
  
• Where do I insert the cummerbund armor?
  If you lift the full-field of velcro on the front, you will find the cummerbund straps. Lift the cummerbund strap from the front of the vest and you will find an entrance point for the level 3a soft armor inserts.
  
  
• Which internal pocket do I place my rifle-rated plate in?
  While there are three internal pockets to the Core Plate Carrier, you will place the rifle rated plate in the middle pocket that has a reinforced velcro strap to ensure your armor plate does not shift. The front pocket can be used for a spall liner if you're operating with ICW plates or Steel Plates. The rear internal pocket gives the option of using a trauma pad.
  
  
• Can I wash my vest?
  The outer carrier is machine washable. Simply remove the ballistic cummerbund panels and any trauma pads or plates, then we recommend washing the carrier on gentle. Lay the carrier flat to dry.
