Does not accept 10x12 plates properly - Ace Link Armor Comp-28 Vest Carrier

I bought this vest with guard dog 10x12 level 4 ceramic plates, but the plates do not fit inside the plate pouch. The plates are too tall and the Velcro does not make good contact thus failing to secure the plates inside the vest. I like the feel and size of this vest but cannot recommend it if you wanted to "upgrade" the protection level. Also just fyi it doesn't have the ace link level 3a insert in it.
