Tactical Vest Review: Nice Review: I was looking for another plate carrier/tactical carrier for my newest level IV plates and I wanted one with side panel pouches for 6X8 plates as well as mag pouches for my AR-14 / M4 magazines & pistol magazines included in the purchase which work and fit great. Side panel pockets and extra magazine/utility pouches are also a great addition . The velcro and stitching are all top notch and very rugged and well done/made .The GLORYFIRE tactical vest carrier caught my interest after seeing the quick release shoulder & cumberbund releases ~ as well as the design and magazine pouch arrangements all in 1 package .I own several different Armor carriers and plates and this GLORYFIRE unit fits ALL my needs excellently. The quick release buckle/connectors work effortlessly even when the mag pouches and molle attachments are laden with gear to complete this kit .The guide loops on the shoulder straps help to route my camel back irrigation system hose & the vest is very sturdy and rugged( even with a full load ). The mesh backing works well in hot and cold weather conditions ~ even with hard level IV armor , and the double plate velcro straps (inside the carrier pockets) secure armor very well under rough and strenuous movement and field use .I have carriers that cost twice what the GLORYFIRE carrier cost and they are nowhere as good as the GLORYFIRE . I'd recommend this vest/carrier wholeheartedly and without reservation.The price is unbeatable,the quality is superb and the fit and function are perfect .I'm 5'7" 127 lbs. and it's a perfect fit with 5 minutes of adjustment right outta the box. Brothers of mine bought the same carrier after seeing mine and they are all 5'8" to 6' plus ~ and alot heavier,and it fits smaller men like myself and them just great . This carrier/tactical vest is an awesome high quality unit ,loaded with features,it has a unique quick release system that works with a full kit loaded and priced WAY below the others.Mine is camo and I'm gonna buy another in black .Buy this unit and you'll be very happy .

I was looking for a good vest to hold my III-A plates and some Mags. I had previously been using a converted paintball vest and was looking for something different. Mostly for Bug Out, SHTF, scenarios, not to wear at the range and be tacticool. I am a bigger guy. About 5'6 and 250 lbs. I wear a 54 suit coat, and usually buy shirts in 3XL or 3XB. I wasnt sure if this would fit. After receiving it and making some adjustments, it does fit. Its a bit of a pain to set up, but once you get it set up, there isnt much need to adjust anything. I moved the side closures to the largest position (they adjust with heavy duty velcro under the front area), and adjusted the shoulder straps shorter. Everything on it is built well, with very heavy duty velcro and good stitching. It is padded also. I would have preferred it without padding (trying to save bulk) but it is comfy. I took off the front pouches (attached with molle) and moved the side AR pouches to the front. This added a little more room for closing the vest, and I didnt need the double pouches on the front. I like the pockets on the side panels in case I want to add plates there later. Going to pick up a different molle pouch for the front also for an AICS magazine, which does not fit in the included mag holders (made for standard 5.56). The quick release works well, but will take a little getting used to. Right side works every time, left side seems to stick more, but still works. Probably will get better at it with more use. Loved the way my III-A plates stored and secured in the vest. Great fit and the velcro inside holds them in place to prevent shifting. Overall a great purchase so far!

After comparing so many vests at so many brand names and different prices, I decided to go with this basic one. It is of good quality and good materials. It will do the job as good as a $700 vest! I built a couple of rigs with Level IV plates. With that said, here are the pros and cons: PROS: - This Carrier can hold 4 plates! 2 large 12" front and back, and 2 smaller 6x6 side plates! Side plate holder can accommodate slightly larger 7" side plates variations. - 4 Quick release latches for quick removal and seem to be of strong material and working fine - Easy to set up. Its pretty much setup and you just have to adjust it. Get familiar with the MOLLE gear system so you know how to attach the accessory pouches correctly. CONS: - Only 1! - The vest can use a bit more padding under the shoulder straps. Once you get it fully loaded with weight, it can feel like they dig into you a bit. But this is what you get for this price. The more expensive ones are more comfortable. But you can be crafty and pad them yourself with adding soft padding material to the shoulder straps. - Untested - Reliability/durability. So far, so good. Seems like it of good quality and the buckles and quick releases are working well. But I have not had it long enough to test this yet. I will update this review if anything starts going wrong with it. Great deal for the price so far! I do recommend it.

Great vest, I bought this to replace a smaller plate carrier that made me look like I was wearing a sports bra instead of a vest. Fits big guys pretty well, I'm 5'7in weighing at 240lbs. Vest came with no defects and is holding two 8lb lvl4 SAPI cut ceramic plates with ease. The vest is easily adjustable from the shoulder straps to the cummerbund and I can see no issues with even bigger guys than me wearing this. Overall a very comfortable vest to stand or sit in for a long period of time. Can't say for how it might feel in a patrol vehicle but I did wear it in my personal vehicle and it felt fine, just had to adjust the seat.
