What plate carriers/chest rigs do you use?

[wdeister08]

AR500 is running a sale on a bunch of their products including different carriers. Was debating picking one up. Does anyone run something else they like? Primary use would be for carbine courses, but being able to accept plates too is something I have in mind.

There is a company called CATI armor and Ive never seen anyone else sell AR 500 plates for the same price as these guys do. They have a website and they can be found on eBay. I bought curved coated plates front back and sides from them for around $135. As for Carrier I like the Mayflower APC. The shoulder straps run closer to the neck which keeps them further away from the shoulder pocket so it's a little more comfortable shouldering the rifle.

The shellback banshee is another one that is also then well reviewed. And it's quite affordable.
