Reviews & Ratings for LBX Tactical Speed Draw Plates Carrier — 2 reviews — Page 1

I’ll start by saying commercial medium plates will not fit. You can stretch the pockets and squeeze them in but the bottom closures will not fit together. It’s so tight the plate hasn’t fallen out yet but the plate pocket will not close with medium 10x12 plates. The buckle for the front panel broke the first time I put the carrier on with plates. Lifted it up to secure the cummerbund and the buckle snapped off. Customer service has been non responsive. Had to order another front panel just so I could use the carrier. It is a comfortable carrier though. Just know commercial 10x12 plates are almost impossible to fit in and customer support is non existent.

Excellent product, particularly given its relatively low cost compared to other name branded carriers. LBX tactical is a subsidy of LBT and their commitment quality remains.

Construction:
Lightweight and comfortable, the mag pouches are secure and the MOLLE webbing is strong. Nearly all seams are double stitched, with no defects or concerns in the most important regions (Shoulder straps, Front & Back Pouches ect.).

Features:
MOLLE every where to attach and customize as needed. Built in Mag pouches have draining holes to keep water from pooling for when the skies open up. Hydration tube strap to keep it from loosely hanging. Large Velcro region for morale patches. Highly adjustable to fit most folks who wear S-XL. Adjustable Cummerbund

Plate Carrier Pouches:
Front: Large and will take 10x12 Shooter/Swimmers cut. Decent retention strap to keep plates tight against the body. Minimal bouncing or plate movement during exercise. For best protection a trimmed or shooters cut plate is suggested due to the angled top section.
Back: Very large and rectangular, will fit any plate.
* Note: does not have pockets for side plates
