Legacy Reviewer's Review of Tactical Assault Gear Banshee Rifle Plate Carrier
For the money this is a really good plate carrier. It was a little shorter than I imagined. I had planned on putting stuff on my left and right sides on the cumberbund, but the cumberbund sits just under my armpits. This is way too high to put anything with too large a profile under there, in my opinion. However, if you have a pistol or something on a regular belt, it rides high enough that it does not interfere with that at ALL. Thats kind of cool.
There isn't a TON of real estate, but it'll get the job done. I am 5' 8" 160 pounds with a 30" waist. If I'm wearing a t-shirt it ALMOST will not fit snugly, but does. If you're any smaller than me you'll have to wear something bulkier than a t-shirt I suppose. There is room on the front for 3 rifle mag pouches. I like all the velcro on the front and back for morale patches or whatever.
The only complaint I have is alot of these you order through Optics Planet (who have great customer service!) ship directly from Tactical Assault Gear. TAG makes good stuff, but they do NOT know what they have in stock, when new shipments will come in, when your order ships out, anything. They don't do tracking information. TAG customer services totally blows. I ordered a different plate carrier and over the course of 2 months was given 5 different ship dates before I told them to cancel the order and give me my money back, I'll go somewhere else.
Anyway, this is a sweet low profile little rig, and its perfect for someone who wants to keep on the light side. The manufacturing is awesome, sewing is good, material is good. You won't be disappointed. My SEAL friend thinks its sweet, so you can capitalize on that. For the money, you can't get a better PC.
Cons: Shorter than I imagined.
