Superlative armor carrier

The ARC v2 is superlative. Everything I've been annoyed with in other carriers has been solved. From plate fitment to cable management It just works. I don't know how the Shaw folks did it, but they did.

A Solid Workhorse

Used an AVS for a long while. While not able to load up the arc v2 to the exact same capacity, it gets pretty close but with better airflow, less bulk, and a slimmer fit. All with the added bonus of being just as comfortable to me. Final verdict….an all around solid carrier that is well worth the investment!

It's the best

Best carrier I've ever larped in.

I've run a couple different carriers in my time as a pro larper, but this one runs the best. Mostly because of how it fits. It fits my smaller frame very well, paired with the side buckets, the cummerbund wears like a harness. I replaced my AVS with this.

The carrier is by far the best I have owned. I ordered the plate carrier to use for military training starting with JRTC Rotation this month. Within the first week all of the StratusFit™ Pads Internal Molded Foam & Inner Soft Loop Lining (both bags) glue had melted/washed away, leaving just the velcro strips attached to my plate carrier. I expected better quality for the price.
