John's Body Armor Loadout

John's Body Armor Loadout - Plate Carrier Loadout

Please Note: This loadout now includes two HighCom RSTP SA+ body armor plates instead of two ShotStop GT2 plates.

When it comes to body armor setups, there are a lot of options out there. We decided to make the choice a little bit easier for everybody and create a combo that has John's seal of approval inside and out. 

This loadout starts off with the RAC Plate Carrier, a versatile carrier that is the backbone of any good loadout. But what is a plate carrier with no plates to carry? How about we throw in two of the Guardian RSTP SA+ Multicurve Body Armor Plates from HighCom, which have been special threat tested against the 5.56mm / M855 Green Tip round. On top of that, we include the Maximus Placard and Dual Removeable GP Pouches to give you the ability and versatility to store gear and other essentials. Whatever your mission is, know that you are prepared for it with one of the most advanced and adaptable armor systems on the market today.
