Much happier with the tactik buckle. The carrier itself won't get much for changes. Need to decide if I am going to stick with the hinged front panel. Loose true quick qd but I like it. And play with the shoulder pad/wrap that I was never happy with and why I had stopped docking with it I'll have to check out the different buckles. I just realized they're not the same as mine. Do they new ones go back together easier? |

I'm about 10" nipple to nipple and roughly 15.5" sternum notch to naval, think a large shooter cut would work for me?

I'm hoping you do find the time to recover from the "sale" and get one together, I'm calling dibs on it in advance, I am ready to be a smooth larperator that can stop looking like concert security and beging hiding in the woods. Look through this post. Shoulders still need attention, or not. And how front panels will attach will be different As soon as I have time to finish it....

I am close to your size, plates are 10x12. |

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. |

A little thick but huge weight savings and better protection over my old steel plates.
