I spent 3 days looking for ideas on cinching my taps kit tight on my K19 and randomly find this video a year later lol. Ironically, that's exactly, and I mean exactly, what I came up with. I absolutely love mine. After a year of at least weekly use and it's still my favorite kit by far. Personally, I think Agilite is producing the best soft goods and gear on the market right now. Funny how that works when you design something 5 minutes after being in the field and realizing you need it.
I volunteered in the IDF and let me just say these are leaps and bounds better then we had available to us 15 years ago. I aquired some of my gear if youd be interested in doing a retro review
I’ve got a K-19. I like it … don’t love it. Been eyeing a Javlin Concepts AJAC for awhile now. I’d love to see some more reviews on those. I also agree the JPC is a goat.
Great video. Noise Gate too aggressive at parts, but i get it if you have time limits for editing. Video Quality 10/10. Practical experience based review 10/10.
Boils down to personal preference. I don’t think it comes across as heavy as well as the should panels being “too big.” K19 is clearly built for comfort. Full backpack plus mags on and you can tell they put effort into weight distribution. Just my opinion though.
love the (honest review) are you going to do a review of other plate carriers, you mentioned you own JPC 😃i'd be interested seeing a review of that. subbed, liked, comment done, peace !
+1....I had 2 versions of the K19 - I never could get the back plate bag not to sag ...never going back to a K 19 and I heavily distrust plate carriers from Agilite, no matter of the future releases
@@Ammotax I've seen some not glow and others partly glow. Sometimes it depends on color and material sources. And If yhe material is coated in anything. Just like if you wash gear with any optical brightners, even a NIR compliantuniform will glow after most comercial soaps.
I actually like my k19 its the newer gen3 version and i did take the qd buckle out on my right shoulder so i could get a better cheek wield on my stock, i did take some getting used to because of how think it is but it does work and yes it is super comfortable
@Ammotax the problem is common with alot of other pc's as well my coyote brown under non illuminated ir is still dark in color that is until I put my vampire on it and then it's just a glowing beacon. I wonder if a quick spritz of some fde spray paint might help with that
@Ammotax I heard the rustoleum camo line works good, idk if they have a fde or darker brown to somewhat match my coyote brown but if I can get closer to that og color the better. Ik the darker od green works good, I have that on a rifle rn and it's awesome
Liked, subscribed, and now for the comment. Can you link the backpack addon i looked at surplus stores and couldn't find anything that looked like it????
Not sure who taught you how to shoot with plates but you don't put the buttstock into your shoulder. It goes into your right chest right below your chin so you can get an instant cheek weld simply by lowering your head. So the straps shouldn't interfere with anything. Also it keeps your plates always facing the front towards they enemy. 99% of shooters open up their chests because their plates are faced toward the 2 o clock.
I serve in the Taiwanese army and I am very disappointed with the bulletproof vests and anti-ballistic plates issued by my country. I am very interested in the Israeli K19 vest and want to buy it. Do you recommend it?
I wore a buddies for a ruck, i wanted to try it out. Would not reccomend for 113° in Virginia ft Lee. If i was such a sweater and drank a ton of water, i would have heat cated
I’ve never use it so I can give my opinion on it, but I’ll always try to help check out EOD fish ua-cam.com/video/9TjW5rof3Y8/v-deo.htmlsi=3PRYEZR1i2NGh5g4
The interesting thing about Agilite is that we get to see them grow, learn, invent, and improve. I run a K19 3.0 and I like it. I do.also have a JPC 2.0.
Remember guys, tacticon makes a replica of this carrier in 500d for half the price, saw another replica on amazon for $50 and it was 1000d. Also tacticon offers lifetime warranties on all their products. Lower price points puts things in different perspectives. You wont find a better carrier for the money.
@@Ammotax My teenager liked my K19 a lot when I bought it about a year ago and kept hounding me that he wants one. He saved up a few bucks and bought the Tacticon clone. Honest to God, it's a 1 to 1 clone. It's quite padded as well but not quite as thick and might actually solve the moisture retention issue, etc that you mentioned as cons. You might even like it better based on that. I was honestly shocked at how good it is.
I've run several plate carriers in southern Arizona heat. I like the agilite even in the heat.
We all strive to be as cool as you

Send me a email and will work something out
Where can I find your email?
Actually can you hmu on my instagram @ammotax
@@Ammotax Its not a K19 gen 3 or?
Can you replace the broken clip at 7:38 with an other clip?
I WAS about to pull the trigger on the k19, watched this review. Went with jpc 2.0.

I've never seen a guy not eventually upgrade, having slimmer shoulders, and less padding all over the place after that thing feels like heaven.
love the (honest review) are you going to do a review of other plate carriers, you mentioned you own JPC 😃i'd be interested seeing a review of that. subbed, liked, comment done, peace !
Yes I will be but it takes time and money
If you ever upgrade, i highly reccomend defense mechanisms, use cloutac back panel adapters, theyre the same as crye

Yeah, I recently found out that they also reflect under IR it seems criminal to me because they market to military and law-enforcement

You are a genius with the d ring on the taps rig

No
@@TheGruntPerspective boot
You’re saying, the stock goes essentially in f s head hole on your plate carrier?
Honestly it depends on your body type and size
Good solid review thinking bout getting these outselves, what.combat shirt is that mate?
I honestly don’t know 😂
Does this take side plates?
If you got a Molly attachment with side plates, you could add them
@@Ammotax shutup.
I serve in the Taiwanese army and I am very disappointed with the bulletproof vests and anti-ballistic plates issued by my country. I am very interested in the Israeli K19 vest and want to buy it. Do you recommend it?
Not too
@@Ammotax thank you
I like my LBT 6094C BIG AND COMPHY AND NEVER SAYS NO WHEN I WANT ADD MORE ❤
Very odd carrier coming from the Israel where its hot 98% of year. Would make sense it has less bulk and its more tailored to those hot environments.
Didn’t even think of that 😂
I wore a buddies for a ruck, i wanted to try it out. Would not reccomend for 113° in Virginia ft Lee. If i was such a sweater and drank a ton of water, i would have heat cated
Do they come in black?
Don’t buy black body armor trust me it’s pointless
@Ammotax i worked in civilian law enforcement. Black was only color allowed.

What is the back panel?

I have seen that this, espessially for looks, is good for a security guys
the cop that was in my flux video liked it
Making it very short - the K19 is not worth the money
Yes over hyped and over priced
It’s not a bad carrier but is way over priced I’d get the tacticon knockoff version
Do you think a JPC2.0 is better than this? or even an AVS
1 AVS
2 jpc
10th k19
Ya I bought it cause ya know I saw good reviews. Not gonna lie I’m selling it and my 5.11 and going to a LV119
I’ve never used that system, but I’ve heard good things about it
I wonder if the 3.0 is any better
They are, but I’m still not a fan of
The interesting thing about Agilite is that we get to see them grow, learn, invent, and improve. I run a K19 3.0 and I like it. I do.also have a JPC 2.0.

idk haven’t used it
Thick guys = prefer thicker women 😂... Great review coming from someone who served.
Is my grandma really that loose on Valentine’s Day😮
You can call me Abraham Lincoln because I never tell a lie
This is disappointing i wanted to like it.
Yes
It looks nice tho,
Agilite products except for armors are made in Vietnam. For their prices ?? Not worth the money. Defense mechanisms are the way to go😊
💯
Dude 😂
