Crye Avs Plate Carrier Review

At just over one pound for the entire carrier the jpc offers a variety of configuration options to suit an operator s needs in terms of load carriage and comfort.

Crye avs plate carrier review. First displayed at shot show in 2010 the crye precision jumpable plate carrier jpc went into production in 2011. It s lighter slicker and more minimalist without losing a huge range of features. Avs 3 band skeletal cummerbund. Because the avs yoke doesn t cover as much of the user as the avs harness it makes for a better ventilated plate carrier.

The gold standard in plate carriers. For me it s without equal. I would guess many people first saw the jpc on soldier systems daily ssd in this report. As an avid follower of ssd it was certainly my first look.

But crye s adaptive vest system doesn t want to be pinned down. In terms of hsld form factor the spc betters the jpc in my opinion. Now that i ve spent enough time with it i can see why crye s airlite structural plate carrier spc has turned the heads of jpc avs and cpc users beyond its marketing hype. It s our understanding that the avs is now militarymoron s mm favorite crye plate carrier supplanting the crye precision jpc jumpable plate carrier for that spot since according to him it offers the best balance of lo pro lo vis low profile low visibility and load carriage capability of any crye plate carrier vest system.

Jumpable plate carrier jpc the jumpable plate carrier jpc is a lightweight and minimal vest designed for maximum mobility weight savings and packability. These are situated in the front plate bag and the harness which encloses the rest of the wearer s body over the shoulders and around the chest. In the most often used configuration it s seen as a harness plate bag combination which gives he protection and modularity of a modern plate carrier but with the harness allowing a greater degree of mobility and comfort. The condor modular operator plate carrier mopc is a very popular plate carrier that for the money is almost impossible to beat.

Although it comes with no attachments at around 60 this vest is an absolute steal. Avs detachable flap m4. Avs 6x6 side plate carrier set. I ve wanted to write an avs review for many months.

Avs standard plate pouch set. The basis of a crye avs is that it s a modular system allowing multiple ways of carrying a front and or rear ballistic plate.
