Good idea, bad design. - Vism Guardian Backpack, w/ 10inX12in Front And Back Level Iiia Ballistic Soft Panels

There is a serious flaw with the design of the front plate carrier. The buckles for the shoulder straps that attach the front carrier to the backpack are at the top of the backpack. If you adjust the straps before placing the front carrier back inside the backpack, the straps aren't long enough to let the carrier fit. If you leave the straps long so the carrier will fit, the friction slot of the buckles won't allow you to tighten the straps when it's deployed. The buckles need to be a pivot point centered both when the carrier is stored and deployed. It's a serious design flaw that anyone with 5 minutes of testing this backpack should have known.
