The Alloy plate, the Testudo carrier. America’s favorite armor kit.
The?Testudo Gen 2.0 Plate Carrier?is distinguished by its cummerbund, which wraps around the lower part of your torso to give you a perfectly comfortable & tight fit- the same way shoelaces make for a better shoe.. It features a fully adjustable cummerbund and shoulder straps, making it more than a ?one-size-fits-all? solution. It also has plenty of PALS webbing for attaching your MOLLE-compatible pouches, holsters, and accessories.The value of lightweight gear is likely the most understated asset in the armor industry. When you have to carry armor all day, trek in it, work in it, and more, shaving pounds off your kit is a great benefit to your fighting ability when the time comes. The?A2?is 5.5 pounds and stops both M80 Ball and Green Tip penetrator rounds. It also is rated to stop 7.62×39 (i.e. AK-47). Not rated for AP rounds.The?Chest Rig?is designed to be usable in two different ways: Independent from an armor carrier or in addition to one.With the included H harness, the Chest Rig comes ready to use as its own setup – a platform for carrying front-line gear in front of you, similar to the Battle Belt, a likely compliment to the Chest Rig. But the Chest Rig also already includes what’s needed to mount to most carriers: The featured?swift clips?attach to your carrier and function as a boost to your customizability. Instead of switching each individual magazine, medical kit, or other tools, use a setup already put on your Chest Rig.The?Lower-Back IFAK Pouch?is designed to let you quickly pull off your IFAK while staying out of the way for most of the time. Note: does not come with its own IFAK.?Coyote?and?Mulitcam?options come with this.The?General Purpose Pouch?is a rugged, 6.5?x6?x3? MOLLE-compatible pouch large enough to store most smaller items like GPS, small binos, and even candy bars. Comes with an internal divider and elastic for securing things like chemlights or for use as dummy-cord anchor points.The zipper opens halfway so your contents won?t dump all over the place, and the pouch comes with a Velcro patch panel.
The (upgrade option)?Trauma Pads?are a non-newtonian material that absorbs compressive force to mitigate the blunt impact that otherwise causes secondary injuries after an incoming bullet is stopped.
