Hesco is based in WA? Crazy, I’m up in Snohomish and was gunna order my 4800’s tonight since I finally got my ferro concepts v5 plate carrier after 5 months of trying 😂
@bigtruck guy 10x12 would fit great for you but have you measure you torso from clavicle notch to belly button and nip to nip?? Do that first to see you true plate size. Plus multi curve is more ergonomic which it would fit more natural to the body then the single would.
I live in Puyallup. Pretty crazy seeing they are produced here and took 5 months to get lol Got a set yesterday and another coming from Trex today. Thanks for making such an awesome product.
Sir, I would just like to complement you. This video is very well made. You speak clearly, and concisely. Your efforts to ensure information is correct is commendable. I really appreciate how you carefully went over just the plates in front of you, not trying to make broad statements. Everything about your thinking process surrounding this purchase is sound. Additionally, I greatly appreciate you as a person. Its obvious that you take the same care with everything you do. And I hope and pray we never have to don any of this equipment. The only thing I could recommend is please please please look into 3 more things. 1- BALCS/SPEER cut 3a soft armor that you can wear under your clothing. 79% of battlefield injuries occur because of fragmentation/flying debris. These injuries occurred on the torso where plates dont touch. 2. Helmet. Self explanatory :) 3. Gas mask. I would be happy to go into greater detail , and share some personal experiences. I know for a fact that you will research this and come to simmilar conclusions. God bless you and your family.
Wow thanks man. And I take pride in what I do and to insure that I give out the correct information. Cause I too was one of searching for everything I have and didn’t get any information or little to none. I do thank you and you are correct about the 3 other things to look into with I’ve been doing already. If I run into a problem I will immediately come ask you questions. Prays to you and your family as well and stay safe.
@@MrGilesJr18 Thank you for your kind response. I greatly appreciate that! I have many opinions on the various ways you can see better in low light, but my opinions and experiences are situation specific. I dont want to paint a brush over the topic. There is a lot of very cool gear out there. I dont typically type so much, especially on UA-cam, something just told me to. Im gonna leave an email address. I would be happy to talk to you about the tubes that have been issued to me in the past, the one I own now, and most important, LISTEN to what is important to you. Situations dictate gear choices. God bless
@@ShooterMedic1818 i think hesco's website says 7.5 for the large? non the less when its on a plate carrier and tight against your body its unnoticeable.
Lol you can still get them bro just save up. I’m looking into some 400 series for my next plate carrier. Plus I’m thinking of doing a giveaway when I hit 1000 sub. And it might be with these plates 🤷🏾♂️
Yes they have extra large but there not in shock right now. I waited like 2 months till they restock but when I order them, they came with in 10 days of purchase. Super fast shipping.
@@MrGilesJr18 I just got them in the mail. These not a lot of videos online testing these but I’m sure they’re some of the best available to civilians.
Great video! Thanks for making it. I Have a question for you man if I may? I am a huge fan of Trex arms but have not bought from them yet. I am looking at buying myself and my wife a set of these plates. I heard you say you have bought lots from trex arms. Are you happy with them as a company? Also, are you happy with the plates? For the cost for a set I just wanted to ask your opinion. They aren't cheap. Haha Have you compared them to any other brand and do you believe they are worth the cost? Thanks!!
Thanks man. Plus I’m a big fan of them as a company. Their Customer service is great and they stand behind their product. I’m extremely happy with my plates from them and they come in within 8 days of purchase. I have compared them to order plates but only by watching videos. Overall I think there the best plate for what I need them for.
Cause the plate carrier I have only holds up to medium size plates 10x12. Should have order the plates before the carrier to get a larger one, but they fit fine for me bro. The plates are 9.5x12 and they fit perfect in the plate carrier I have. I have the video up as well with the carrier and plates in it.
@@MrGilesJr18 yeah bru it’s a nice setup, I saw the video shortly after. Still waiting on my K19 carrier, will definitely be getting those hesco plates. Looks worth the $$. Appreciate the response. God bless man
@@HD_Claymore Ohk let me kno how that k19 carrier works out and send me a pic so I can post it on my instagram @life_tactical, yes bro they are worth it bro. Always invest in yourself. Plus be safe and bless you too
@@kod593 even if you have the coating it doesn’t matter, it fractures after 1-2 rounds and then you have bare steel on your chest. Don’t buy steel plates, they kill.
I make these in WA. Glad to see the people they save.
Thank you bro for making them

Oof never ever use steel plates
it's fine as long as you have the full coating to catch the spalling. beats getting shot.
