Love this OPSEC plate carrier. 10x12 Ranger green. Have the multi cam one & looking to buy the black one. Inly bad thing id say is it sucks that there no longer going to be making these vests anymore :(. Returning customer here, & they have some of the best & highest quality, most comfortable, practical, & versatile gear on the market. Also extremely durable for a nice dollar or 2 lol. Well worth the money. Hope they start making other gear & pouches. Want all or most of my gear to be from RTS tactical. Awesome customer service too. Cant hardly find that at most places nowadays. Thanks RTS tactical for such awesome equipment. Keep it up.
Velcro would’ve been better than whatever the hell they put on this thing to secure it together. You can’t jump, you can’t bend over, hell, you can’t even walk without the stupid thing coming undone. I wish I could have my money back.
Thought it might be a little big called the service team. They helped me adjust it. Perfect fit thank you you guys! Gorgeous plate carrier! well made! Definitely one of my favorites

The quality of their plates and plate carriers is outstanding—durable, comfortable, and reliable. I highly recommend RTS Tactical for anyone looking for top-notch gear.

First and foremost customer service is the best, any questions or concerns where handled right away. I spent a lot of time looking for my first plates and carrier and everything led me back to RTS. I feel confident and safe when I’m out there practicing my drills with this on when it comes to the plate I don’t think there’s plates that come close to it all the videos that I’ve watched this thing has survived and beat out the competition.
Very high quality. Distributes the weight nicely. Put two plates in each pocket (level 3 and 4 both in each) and walked around town with a full kit on for 6-8 hours. Wasn't bad at all. Didn't really get fatigued at all. Overall weight was around 32 lbs with placard full of mags, hydration pack, medical kits, and ATACR. Still adjusting my kit on it a bit to be more precise in my overall deployment of gear.
But after wearing it all around town for 6-8 ish hours and on a hike in the woods around my backyard. It wasn't too bad. Could wear it all day really and be good. Good job y'all. Would definitely buy more again.
The plates are lighter than expected. They fit perfectly into my T.Rex Arms carrier (10 x 12 plates in size L carrier). Curvature of the plate is good also and fits well. I would purchase these plates again.
I was sent the wrong product. The product I received had the shoulder straps completely comprised of Velcro, that is not the same shoulder strap system displayed on your website.
I WAITED FOR THIS THING FOR A YEAR AND A HALF. THE MILTICAM IS PERFECT. IT DOESN'T LOOK OR FEEL CHEAP. I COULDN'T BE ANY HAPPIER. BAD ASS PLATE CARRIER! FEEL LIKE A JUGGERNAUT! WITH THE PLATES AND ALL THE OTHER STUFF ON IT IT'S STILL PRETTY COMFY.
This not something that you share how you like them to me. I hope I never have to use them. They came 4 days late but they are lighter than my other set. Over all I like them.
Perfect fitment. Wouldn’t be able to wear it a full shift if it were not for the padding. Easy out with the quick release. More than enough molle to accommodate tac. Removable panels a plus.
I went from level III-A lightweight to level IV. It's going to take time in getting use to the weight difference. Good thing I only wear it 2 days a week for 10 hours.
Amazing customer service! RTS answered all my questions and made sure I got exactly what I was looking for. I use this on duty. The Level IV plates and carrier are comfortable and light weight. I will continue to use RTS Tactical gear in the future. Highly recommend.
I Love the Level 4 Plates as a Marine Veteran Working private security for a Country Club in Dallas, Tx and Protecting 1,200 Members and their families.
I can Face what ever comes my way Being Fearless.
Talk about Love at first Site!!! All the other companies that provide plate carriers don't even come close.
And that are way overpriced and the material is not even that good like Defender Armor or Safe Life defense.
Compared to the big bulky plate carrier that we had to wear in Afghanistan in 2011 hands down all around the best from RTS Tactical.
Researched a lot of level 4 plates. RTS are legit, a bit on a thick side over 1” but still fit flawlessly in my Diamondback Predator kit with soft level 3 armor I used in Iraq and Afghanistan. There are enough test videos on YouTube showing RTS plates taking multiple hits from 5.56 and 308. Solid plates from good, reputable company.
