I just realized they're not the same as mine. Do they new ones go back together easier? |

Not just one type. Already have a small assortment of sized plates and the made to order aspect of this allows for it. It will be another week before I play with the carrier again. Should cover is what needs my attention most. If you decide on plate in the not to distant future only need a couple measurements and can make the carrier. |

That carrier is awesome! MC Tropic takes the lead over M81 for me. That velcro retention is a great way to add adjustability.
I have a set of Highcom 3S9M in 10x12 shooters front med sapi rear on order but they're a couple of weeks out. |

Got my plates, had some issues with my first order and then ended up going with Hoplite 19513s. Swimmer cut fronts, med SAPI rear. A little thick but huge weight savings and better protection over my old steel plates.
