Description
The New Testudo Gen 3 Body Armor Plate Carrier, Now in SIX Colors
The new generation of our most popular carrier. Comes with cummerbund + the new Quick Detach System. Custom, adjustable fit. On in seconds, off in seconds. Padded design to mute blunt impact + increase comfort. Built-in side plate pouches, kangaroo pouch, admin pouch.
Size Guide for Optimal Fit and Coverage
Get size Medium if you wear a Small to Large sized shirt, Large for XL to XXL frames or if you are taller than 6’2″ and utilize 11×14″ plates. The cummerbund fits Armored Republic 6×6″ Side Plates. It will not hold 6×8″ Side Plates.
Enhanced Quick-Detach System for Rapid Adjustability
The Testudo design is the carrier of choice for a massive coalition of Free Men. Now, we are honored to present its best and newest model, the Gen 3, featuring the Quick-Detach Buckle System. A cummerbund is great for its precise adjustability; pull it tight to fit you exactly. The downside is that it takes a bit longer to take it off. The QDS fixes that. Pull a cord away from you and the carrier will open on that side for quick removal.
Superior Comfort with Padded Design and Adjustable Fit
The Testudo Gen 3 is made mostly of 500D Nylon, with bar tacks reinforcing all stress points and PALS webbing covering the outside. MOLLE-compatible webbing for pouches, holsters, and accessories.
The generous padding also prevents chafing, making for an armor setup that’s easy to wear for long periods of time. The adjustable shoulder straps, made of nylon, also help you fit the carrier as the low offset makes the rear plate pocket ride at the proper height.
The Pouch Suite
The Multi-Rifle Magazine Pouches from Armored Republic accommodate all common rifle magazines in a single, double, or triple magazine pouch, and are capable of accommodating magazines such as 5.56×45 (.223), 7.62×39 AK, or 7.62×51 NATO (.308 Winchester).
Each section can accommodate up to two small rifle magazines or one large rifle magazine. Front-mounted elastic tabs add versatility and additional mounting points for 12-gauge shotgun shells, tourniquets, chem-lights, or other horizontally mounted accessories.
Pouches are constructed from genuine 500D Cordura, and retention flaps feature an easy-to-grip Hypalon® pull tab. The removable retention strap allows you to adjust magazine capacity, size, and retention or remove it entirely to run an opened-top configuration.
The Multi-Caliber Pistol Magazine Pouches from Armored Republic accommodate all common pistol magazines, from .22LR to .50AE.
