    I have been running the Spitfire with the D3CRM Micro from Haley Strategic for a couple years now - I have not been able to find a setup that I like more. It handles L4 ceramic 10x12s + a pad perfectly, very comfortable distribution. I have 5 plate carriers and it’s by far my favorite.

    Adaptive Green is probably the best solid color for most situations.

    • @icorfieldtac
      @icorfieldtac  3 роки тому

      Absolutely. I had a lot of situations where the plate carrier was sticking out, due to color or camo of the uniform.
      However Coyote was my favourite colour for one-color camo. With me being in the military now, i had changed my mind and would also prefer olive drab

    I love it. I own both JPC 2.0 (in Multicam) and this (in Pencott Greenzone). I would say that they compete each other really well. However I love the material and cutting shape of the Spitfire more.
    Their magazine well is bad for tactical reload because the inner texture is sticky unlike other pouches.
    I use the clip-on mag pouch instead. I got 2 from UR tactical in Pencott greenzone.
    They also sell comfort set. It is not nesessary but get it if you can.
    Ask me question and I will get back to you.

    • @icorfieldtac

      I once owned a JPC, and eventough it was lightweight, it was extremely uncomfortable for me, and (regardless of temperatures) i was sweaty within few minutes (regardless if i was moving or not). To me the JPC is just two pieces cordura sewed together (which is sometime exactly what a particular person needs).
      Somebody (a hardcore 'know-it-all' MILSIM player) once told me the JPC cannot handle weight very well, that it will sit very loose in comparison to others, is that true?

      Everything held up perfectly. I just dragged this thing through muddy hell 4 weeks ago, during an entire weekend of Airsoft, other peoples gear failed, mine didn't. There is not a single scrath anymore. Amazing quality.

    • @icorfieldtac
      @icorfieldtac  5 років тому

      I don't know for sure, buddy. Since we don't have that type of stuff in Germany. But due to the length of the flap (that closed the plate of into the PC is) is long enough to fit longer/thicker plates aswell. So it should work.

      If zippers on the back really and admin pouch on the front really make a difference for what you do, then go ahead.

      Last i checked, the Crye JPC cost 500 bucks. Seems like i've been misinformed. However i used the JPC for a while and i despise that thing. And 25 bucks for a better PC seems worth it for me. But each their own 👍🏽

    • @icorfieldtac
      @icorfieldtac  5 років тому +2
