The front bag of the Agilite K19 is feature-packed and leads the division in plate carriers with its innovative design. The front of the carrier includes a front zippered pouch that can be used to store your maps or flat papers that you are working without in the field.
The sides of the front bag include the integrated tubes cummerbund and a segment of side padding to keep the tubes or any other equipment from jamming into your side.
On the rear side of the front bag, we see the entire inside of the carrier has a padded breathable material on all body-facing portions.
The shoulder straps have an amazingly simple design where you open the hook and loop cover and then simply adjust the strap. You then just close the cover again and you’re all set. It is advised to also adjust the connection into the front bag for the best fit possible.
The cummerbund includes a cordora portion along with an elastic portion to help the cummerbund move and flex on the body. You simply loosen or tighten the side buckles for different body shapes or clothing configurations. Removing the need to adjust a ton of straps and elastic bands just because you put on a coat.
Pros and Cons!
Pros:
Insane weight distribution - This is the pinnacle of this carrier. You can carry MORE weight and it feels like you have less on because it’s distributed smartly. The comfort of this carrier blows everything else away.
Cummerbund (controversial) - The adjustment and installation make the cummerbund amazing in my eyes. I like being able to just adjust and resize on the fly. I don’t need any stupid elastic cords or other dumb. This method fits me perfectly and is extremely fast at the same time.
Quick disconnects - We see four QDs that work great to help you in whatever situation you may be in. It doesn’t matter if you’re injured or stuck, you have a way to get this carrier off easily and quickly.
Updated version adjustments - Seeing the updated version with the placard support, AMAP III integration changes, and removal of the buckles on the rear bag is a welcome improvement. We see that Agilite is constantly adjusting based on real-world feedback of the carrier in the field.
Cons:
Loss of molle row on the front bag - The new version uses a loop-backed molle row but takes a step backward by only using 3 rows. For some confusing reason, the 3rd row also terminates at the bottom of the carrier, effectively giving you only 2 functional rows of molle unless you want a dangly mess of junk at the bottom of the carrier.
No cable management - For a carrier being used in the field, I’d expect a way to integrate a simple PTT or route my cables in a more organized way with a simple cable loop. Having a way to push excess cords into the plate bag via an access hole or small Velcro segment would be a huge bonus.
Front zippered pocket isn’t that useful - You can put maps in it. That’s about it.

How do you not have more subscribers? You’ve certainly earned mine. This review is so well done and answered every question I had about this carrier. YOU sold me on this, hope you get a kickback. Thank you!
this carrier is my absolute favorite.... other folks. don't love the cummerbund... but it's so ridiculously nice.
let me know if you like yours!! And no kickbacks but hopefully they let us try out new gear and show.it to you.

@@ThinLineDefenseCo I have 1 problem with this plate carrier. The hooks from the cummerbund on the back are only made out of plastic and can be broken very fast.
Got both. A little like a puzzle putting it all together, but once it is complete and all connected, it's wonderful. Can't wait until I can get the sides completed as well. Love Agilite products.
Great review. Researched these quite a while and this was one of my top picks. Found your vid after my decision was made. You reinforced my choice. Look forward to checking out your other vids.
Great reviews Buddy,. I've watched a lot of them on different gear , you've been a great help , there are so many options !
after days of research as to what my first plate carrier should be after this video im pretty sold on this one, thank you for your help
I’ve been looking at these for awhile but since some unforeseen events happen such as my father passing away last November and me having some health issues and losing my job I’ve resorted to just watching and researching so when I do end up making a purchase I will make the best purchase I can within my budget. Anyways, your reviews are great and I’ve literally watched them all, thanks for giving your fans great content! Keep up the great work!
Sorry to hear about your family and I hope it's all going well. Let me if you get one later and I'll share your setup on our social media!
Thanks for watching and for the kind words.

@@ThinLineDefenseCo Walsh, I didn’t get this Agilite plate carrier, I actually ended up going with a Warrior Assault Systems LPC V2. The reason I went with this carrier is because the price I got it for and the features. It’s similar to the Crye JPC but it’s far more comfortable with thermoform front and back for padding and airflow and it has cumberbund tubes which I wanted. The carrier isn’t very easy to find and they sell from $230 to almost $300 just for the carrier and I ended up getting mine for $185. I wanted to just let you know because I think it might be a carrier you may want to see if you could track down and do a review on. The V1 of the same carrier come with a full “solid” cumberbund as the V2 come with skeletal which is also something I was looking for since I live in Arizona. Warrior Assault Systems also has a pretty large line of other gear, bags, pouches etc… So you could possibly load up your review carrier (if you do end up making a review) and have a fully kitted out carrier with the same companies accessories on it.
Anyways, I just wanted to reach out and keep in touch and possibly give you another video idea. Also, if you do end up getting some of these things from Warrior Assault maybe you could send some pouches my way. 😂🤣😂
Keep up the great work brother, I really enjoy your videos and your humor and personality make your videos very easy to follow and not get to “intimidated” getting advise from an “average Joe” and not some ego driven mine is better than yours type context creator. Sorry for the long comment, just had to follow up and letcha know. 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
Just got mine and oh my what a wonderful piece of art. It feels like and cloud around your body even with plates, AMAP III, and other gear added to it.
I have wished it for a long time and when I saw your review I was sure I had to buy it whatever it cost. Thank you again for being such a good a reviewer of gear and love that you are a Agilite fan like me!
I'm just surprised this carrier is so affordable for something that's been battle proven also the backpack. I got both for 500 with taxes. That includes the 3 mag pouch for your front.
Absolutely fantastic review! Thank you so much! Keep up the great work!
This carrier is badass! I have researched them all, and this makes the others pop smoke💨
Nice in-depth review. Just ordered K19 2.0.
Just grabbed this for work thanks to your review. Can’t wait to get this in
You're gonna love it!
-Walsh
Great review. I love the blooper reel at the end.
Awesome review. Got mine yesterday. Many Thanks.
Thanks a lot for this review!
I went to the Agilite HP and ordered one before the end of the video.
They have them in multicam arid right now and that looks pretty awesome.
Hell yea, hope you enjoy. I love that carrier.
-Walsh
I like how when you turn around you finally realized the cameras on and you say oh hi everyone and I actually say hello 🤗🤗🤗
Great video
haha that's awesome! Well hello to you too...wait now it's like 3 hellos
Bought mine yesterday I'm excited to get it and test it out
Spot on review!!! Keep em comin!
Thank you soo much for this video! Great job! You answered all my concerns about the V1 and V2 K19. I was bummed because I thought I had to buy a V2 (I just for the Agilite Pincer you also reviewed). 👍
I just ordered this because of your review. Thank you.
Lemme know if you love it!
-Walsh
Damn good review. Thank you. Ordering within the month!
It's on sale this weekend! Just fyi
Thanks for the kind words and glad to help!
-Walsh
I’ve just contacted this company ! I’ve tried other carriers, so I’m totally thinking on these both lol !! BTW I’m liking your channel thanks !
Great review. Looks like they have added a few colors since then!
Great channel appreciate the content, I just bought the k19 for my first plate carrier to start out with, got the unobtainium sled placard also getting the Mk 4 micro fight placard
Good setups but I also recommend you look at the Shaw Placard. The mk4 is kinda mehh and Shaw a better company to support.
-Walsh
Great review between the two. I have the V1 and had to add the AXL placard. Easy enough but would have been nice to have the V2. Customer service above and beyond expectations. Just buy this and don’t think twice.
Concur. I prefer the V2 but if you have the v1 you don't have to have a whole new carrier. I'm with you though.... I like the new one.
Thanks for sharing and for watching!
-Walsh
Looking for some help here.. I have the K19 V2 & got a Haley Strategic D3CR for it. Do you happen to know what buckle piece I should get to support the weight from above? I know AXL offers the AVP for the first version K19, but I'm struggling to find the right brand that offers the buckles I need to support the placards weight. Thanks for any info (including the name of the piece I need).
@@djmeasures bro I have the exact same question, did you find a solution for that already?
Great review and nice carrier thanks
I asked you a question about 3 choices I had but Now I know the Answer!!!👍
Great video and detailed review of this product. Thank you. The only thing I would say about proper fit is the rifle. I see far too many people having their stocks extended out way too far. I am 6'1" and mine is usually all the way inward, meaning my nose is pretty much touching the charging handle. This way, I can face the threat directly and get the most coverage of the plate over my vitals. This makes shouldering much easier and more intuitive instead of pointing the rifle across my centerline (diagonally). Something to think about and try. But it has worked well for me and I have never felt hampered by any plate carrier design, since more of my shoulder is available for the butt stock.
Nice review! Just got my k19 with amap3 and I love it. By far best carrier I've ever worn
dude.... I didn't think I would love the backpack as much as I do. it's wonderful.
-Walsh
Ive been running a gen1 k19 for over a year now, i only have two issues with it, 1)the cumberbund, i wish it was more ridged and had more molle. 2) the shoulder clips will get in the way if you dont have the carrier properly adjusted to your body. Other then that with plates the admin pouch isnt very hard to get into and the shoulder pads are extremely comfortable even after 12 hours of duty type use.
Great job on this review!
I have the Version 1 K19 and it is without a doubt, the most comfortable PC I've ever worn. I already have mine setup to run my Haley Strategic D3CR.
They also have low profile shoulder straps called K-MINIMALS, for those that want a thinner area where you shoulder a rifle.
Which plates are you using?
Looking for some help here.. I have the newer version of the K19 & got a Haley Strategic D3CR for it. Does anyone know what buckle piece I should get to support the weight from above? I know AXL offers the AVP for the first version K19, but I'm struggling to find the right brand that offers the buckles I need to support the placards weight. Thanks for any info (including the name of the piece I need).
@@djmeasures did you figure that out yet?
@@cheyenneobregon184 I sure did. I ended up finding the pieces on eBay. They are the "TMC Tactial MOLLE Buckle 1 Inch Quick Buckle".
I also ended up getting AXL's chest rig retention kit. The plate carrier is finished for now, until I convince myself to get the hydration pack before summer in AZ hits.
have you tried the IDF plate carier from marom dolphin? Here we use the "Amran" model with an intresting back support system!
Love your vids bro. Also, the "g" in Agelite is pronounced like the "g" in "agility." Agilite is a portmanteau of Agility and Lite (as in lightweight). Just so you know.
Haha yea someone corrected me. Too much southern I suppose.
After serving in the IDF, only heard it pronounced agalite not ajilite. There is no "J" sound in Hebrew. You're pronouncing it correctly as far as the israelis are concerned.
@Thin Line Defense Co hey don't put that on us! That's all on you. 😂😅
@@ThinLineDefenseCo how do you have your knife mounted behind the AXL adapter like that? I can not for the life of me figure out how you did it.. but i really want to do it myself 😆
The "e" in agelite should be "i" Agilite
Yup this is my number one plate carrier. I went from JPC/JPC 2 and bought this myself. I’m a little bummed about not owning the updated model. I had already bookmarked the AXL card for the future lol. Right now I’m running an Esstac 3 mag pouches with a few pouches on the front. Don’t want to bore anyone but the AMP backpack is great.
Since you're running the esstac placard...the updated version actually wouldn't work as well for you since it's actually missing a molle row. With your current setup, you'ld be better suited for the old version. If you move to a placard, you can easily just add the Axl placard.
I'm trying the modular defense mechanisms placards next!
-Walsh
The levels of detail and thought you put into this was an obvious instant subscription. Might as well be working for the company with how much you covered. 🤣
I love that carrier lol
Great review and comparison. Thx.
thanks and I appreciate you checking out our little channel!
take care
-Walsh
Awesome Review! I guess I will get me one. Shout out from Berlin
You'll love it. And take care of the other side of the pond for me lol
-Walsh
New to your channel but i already love it!
I really appreciate it! Thank so much for the support and let me know if there are items you'd like to see in the future.
-Walsh
@@ThinLineDefenseCo will do brother! At the moment I’m trying to raise 5K for ukrain and will go there to fight on the frontline with the foreign ukrainian legion. So definitely need a good plate carrier
Great review! hope to see a review on the HRT RAC
haha is it funny that I'm just as excited to review it. Had a few projects in front of it first.
Good review!
appreciate it! Thanks for watching out little channel we got here
-Walsh
Dude, you are funny and videos are extremely well made and very informative.
I had my mind set on this plate carrier already, but after your review I am hooked. (Being an Israeli I may be a little bias...lol)
Haha well I appreciate it and it's a badass carrier! Be safe over there.
-Walsh
Just found your page instant subscriber. loved the k19 carrier and had a question. what tac knife do you run on your kit that i saw in this video?
Oh also, the way you are hooking the butt stock into the carrier is “correct” way of shouldering the rifle. It’s what I do and it’s what a lot of guys I know do with every carrier they run not just the K19.
The thinking behind it is the rifle needs to be as close and centered to your head as possible so you barely have to look down at all to see through your optic on the rifle when shouldered. If you are putting the gun on your shoulder where the quick release buckle is then that is a “bad” habit and forces you to have to tilt your head to see through your sites. I know John Lovell with Warrior Poet Society and a bunch of other guys with instruction videos for carbines talk about this. I think John even mentions hooking the buttstock inside the plate carrier like you are doing.
Anyway... you really want the carbine as close as possible to the centerline of your dominant eye anyway. You should try to keep from canting your head to the side at all and merely just tuck your chin DOWN a hair to get your cheek weld and see down your optic. The idea that the buttstock should be in the pocket where your Clavicle meets your shoulder is kind of old school paper target shooting technique. For more modern combat running and gunning the thinking is to always have the gun close to the centerline as possible so you should barely have to tilt your head down to get shots on target.
Also one thing you see a lot of guys do, they will actually can’t the rifle inward just a hair to really make sure they aren’t tilting their head at all. It won’t affect accuracy enough short range to be a problem.
Badass, thanks for this awesome bit. It's good to know that hooking it into the carrier was right. It certainly felt right
And ... Big props for mentioning going more centerline. I actually swapped to this on accident. I was shooting precision and realized that the closer in line I was to my eye.... The more accurate I was. I moved this over to the rifle side when I noticed it. It's interesting that you mentioned a community wide push to that and away from the natural pocket. I didn't just want to start doing my own thing... But it works so damn well... Not only for accuracy but also for speed of presentation.
Awesome awesome tips and input. Much appreciated!
-Walsh
the plate carrier just arrived today and so far its the most comfortable plate carrier i've ever worn. definitely worth it
Yay!!! Another in the Agilite gang! I love mine
- Jason
Very nice video, thanks
I picked up one of these in Multicam black after watching your review, it’s great. Shortly afterwards they released a 3.0 version where you can ditch either side shoulder quick disconnect clips which is nice. Great video and thanks.
I watched this vid and bought one on the spot
Thanks for the review man! Had i not come across this video i would have never known about the AXL accessory that will allow me to attach a placard to my gen 1 K19 which is something iv been wanting for a while!... how do you have your knife set up behind your mags like that though? Iv been trying to find a way to do that as well but cant find a good way to mount it so its it's currently horizontal on my belt. Which is... less than desirable 😆
You had me at the PB&J pouch.
Great review. Your back sappi may be backwards. However you went into more depth and took time on each section of the flak. Thank you
haha I noticed that after I recorded it. The wife was NOT doing that again. So...you get what you get lol
-Walsh
Love this review, could you review the Velocity Scarab LT? I love my Scarab, but I've heard wonderful things about the K19 and would be interested in a comparison (since I'm a poor that can't shell out for the K19 right now)
This is a great plate carrier with one really big flaw in my experience. The cummerbund as you noted at about 14:15 is way too sharp. It was so sharp it cut through my underlayer and skin in under 30 minutes. It's such hard plastic stitching in such a small are that it puts all that cutting force into less than a mm. It needs a cummerbund redesign or some sort of underpad, even as an option. Sucks because otherwise it's the most comfortable carrier I've ever worn.
Lmfao your wife's body language convinced me she was happy to be in the video. Thank her for being a good sport. Showed my wife she could use my carrier too!
haha every time I get to that test I get a "are you serious..."
You got my subs
Awesome channel. I was wondering if you had plans to review haley strategics thorax plate carrier? Interested to see where it ranks up.
I haven't gotten to see one yet, I hope to get one in the near future though.
-Walsh
I already have a couple of the RAC HRT carriers but would have loved to buy one of these.
oOoOO yea I love the HRT RAC too. I'm a fan
No questions I’m getting one
Always gotta keep a tactical pb&j with with you
Just recently came upon your channel, I really enjoy the delivery of reviews. Awesome content, Subscribed!
lol at first I couldn’t stand your commentary, but after watching 2 videos, I enjoy your B role and the flow of your video.. I typically can’t watch any gear reviews over 10 min.. your videos keeps the audience engaged, informative,
Specs as well as opinion, and you don’t just be “ stuck “ on a issue or problem for too long. Excellent execution 👌🏼
haha glad you enjoyed it and didn't click off too fast.
-Walsh
@@ThinLineDefenseCo I did the opposite, I subscribed, and I’m not a impatient person when it comes to buying myself anything… after your video, I went to agility and put it in my cart
My dream vest
I need a different cummerbund but I’m digging that PC fits my style.
Great video! Very informative! First time viewer and immediate subscriber! Quick question, do you know if agalite makes any sort of cumberbund plate pouches for side protection
They do and I have them. One note is that the agilite ones go on the outside of the cummerbund but some folks perfer them on the inside. I run a set of plate pouches from Defense Mechanisms when I want them on the inside of my K19.
We have a discount code at DM to: TLDco
Hope that helps!
-Walsh
@@ThinLineDefenseCo Walsh, that does help indeed and thank you very much for the reply! All the warmest and best to you and yours and this excellent Channel you got!
@@EddieOakes Appreciate it! And thanks for watching.
-Walsh
Brooo- was rewatching this, I purchased the k19 and was really irritated with the plate bags and the plates bouncing around- but then I saw the straps inside and figiured that's what they were for
10/10- helps alot
oh yea haah I love those!
Thank you for the great information AND your sense of humor. Can you describe your radio pouch and how it is mounted?
Sure thing. My radio pouch claims to be shy, but she secretly loves things shoved in her. When not holding 2.6 lbs of juiced PRC-152 goodness, she enjoys relaxing evenings reading books or listening to her favorite murder mystery podcasts.
- Jason
@@ThinLineDefenseCo LOL.
i love mine! Thx
hell yea, glad you like it.
-Walsh
Love there backpack
Can confirm this plate carrier is the most comfortable carrier I've ever encountered. I literally own less comfortable winter jackets than this. I own plate backers and they aren't even necessary in this carrier, though there is plenty of room to allow them behind Hesco L210s. Looking forward to customizing the cummerbund and selecting a placard. AMAP III in the Agilite Black Friday sale I hope!
I'd toss those L210s and go with RMA level 4. Hesco has been known to have some sus products and recently recalled some of their plates. The L210s are multi hit rated and are not level 4 NIJ rated.
@@shepherd3085 Their two recalls were on different plates were a couple of years ago. I am also far more likely to run into an AR with green tips in my life than a 30-06 with M2 in it. I do plan on "the actual world is over we have been successfully invaded by a military or oppressed by our own" loadout eventually but special threat plates are not a bad solution for the overwhelming majority of rounds you might actually encounter in home defense/civil unrest. Most people who are likely to break into your home or be an asshat aren't going to do it with a BAR loaded with armor piercing rounds.
have you tried the IDF plate carier from marom dolphin? Here we use the "Amran" model with an intresting back support system!
The video was great dude. Most informative one I’ve ever seen on any product
A+ video my dude. Just drop in some quiet sbtle background music and you're golden. Thanks for the info!
I'm working the music for future videos!
Appreciate it
-Walsh
This is my first video that I’ve seen of yours. What an awesome review and I love your personality. You definitely earned my subscription.
Well welcome to the party lol
I definitely will be getting the agelite k19, but I'm just curious what do you have setup on your carrier?
I bought this, and the first time I put it on it felt better then most plate carriers I’ve worn. However as soon as I took it off the shoulder clip broke THE FIRST TIME. I took it back to the patriot instantly and decided to give it another try. I was told agelite customer service is horrible. So hopefully if the plastic clips break again it’ll be easy to get my hands on new clips.
Did this get fixed for you alright? Agilite can sometimes be tough to get in contact with due to the time difference but hit me up if you didn't get resolution. I'll reach out on your behalf.
-Walsh
Can you do the shaw concepts arc v2 ? I need your review on it !
The only major thing about the K19 that kind of turns me off about it isn't necessarily a con, since it is a functional design choice, but that webbing that's missing on the cummerbund to fit the fine sizing adjustment is some valuable MOLLE real estate that now isn't available. Other than that, I dig everything about this carrier and definitely wanna snag one!
yea a few people have mentioned that. it's odd the previous version has one more whole MOLLE row on the front. I haven't had an issue with it but I can see where folks may.
thanks for the great comment!
-Walsh
Same! I’m a little heftier so my side plates sit more forward towards my front instead of directly on my sides.
MULTI CAM IS SOLD OUT...WELL PLAYED SIR 😆
Do you have any comments/experience on UARM plate carrier??? Particularly interested in the FRPC Fast Response Plate Carrier version. BTW I love the reviews on all the gear keep up the great work. Because of your channel I have spent so much money on gear.
interesting. Hadn't see that one! they certainly have some interesting options. It looks very similar to the HRT RAC.
Does this accept side swift clips to be placed on the cummerbund to attach something like the Haley Strategic D3CR Heavy?
Love your videos bro. What strobe are u running on the playe carrier
That's the unity spark! And glad you enjoy
-Walsh
I havent had good experience with the QD mounts. Unless I am a doop and dont realize how to quickly adjust them, I have issues getting a tight fit based on the lack of adjustment. For example, if we were finishing up chow and were called out at a moments notice, simply having a full belly can make fitment a little off. Having simple velcro straps is the most effective for quick precise fitting. Also, QD points on the shoulders just get in the way of your stock. Also, I have gotten the pull tab wedged into the QD release, effectively removing the QD function in the heat of the moment.
10:05. Wait...we have to be told it's multicam? [text printed on the carrier.]
Bro the product itself is above all others that I come to see on TH-cam. Bro do you have any in black colour,cause I love black colour it match my uniforms.
Awesome review bought my v1 earlier this year, when did v2 come out? I got the hydration pack with mine but now I've heard nothing but good about the AMAP. Gotta see your vid on our before I order. Can't wait. I've been using blue force Molle pouches but I'm interested in this placard set up. Might give it a shot. Or might just order the v2...2 is one.
Can you do the Velocity Boss Rugby Shirt, i’ve already have it on my list but i also like your style of reviewing so please do one ! ! !
Lol gladly! That thing looks awesome
-Walsh
Well you should definitely try and compare them with the IDF plate carier from marom dolphin! Here we use the "Amran" model with an intresting back support system. i have made a review about one on my channel!
How did you attach the side pouch (on the cummerbund) to the front placard ?
I don’t know if you’ve figured this out but drop your plate maybe a quarter of an inch and mess with the straps on the right until it sits a little higher and you can shoulder the rifle in that dead spot between the buckle and plate. At least that’s what I did
Great review, looks comfortable. BTW I may be crazy but when your wife was modeling it for fit and when you went prone it seemed like your back plate was in backwards. Could it have been even more comfortable if worn with correct plate orientation? 🤔
Hahah it definitely was in there backwards. I threw it in quickly. It IS even more comfortable when worn correctly lol
What front placard are you using to allow you to have pouches over the quick release? My only gripe with this carrier is that I can't place my radio just to the side of the front. So I have to place my radio right under my armpits which isn't ideal.
I was pretty sold on Spiritus but this thing looks frickin sweet
getttttt it. I think the k19 is still sold out though :/
@@ThinLineDefenseCo 9 week wait time :0 Appreciate the great content!
I’m looking to load out a vest to throw over my BP vest which will be under my uniform. I’m wondering how this vest would do with the cummerbund that it comes with. I’m so confused on which way to go as I’m not throwing it directly over my body. It will be ICW and I’m wondering what my best option would be.
Use the same system for connection on the k19 to swap out the cummerbund with a MOLLE setup. Surprised they haven’t done that yet.
Just since you've reviewed both, what would you or anyone here say is better between the hrt lbac or the agelite k19 for weight distribution and people with back injuries?
Nice video! Got the k 19 and the assault pack with it a few months back. Wasn’t sure how to set it up going to buy what you have but I have a couple questions. What were the chest retention straps for in the description? And where do I find the pouch below the HRT Maximus Placard? Sry I’m no expert
That's the Axl chest retention straps. Let me look at what dangler that is. Ahhh! The elusive Ferro mini dangler. That thing is super annoying to find. I also use the spiritus thing 2 in that setup.
Let me know if you need more info. I planned to do a whole breakdown of that setup.
Thanks! Look forward to the next video!
Would like to see solid side coverage with soft-armor options (Lvl-II and III-A), a "U" cut higher under the arms (maybe a 4-row replicating fit of concealment body armor?) and all Velcro in matching MultiCam. Dig it otherwise.
I think Agilite makes side armor pouches too. I should get those lol

Great review, what IR strobe are you running as well?
I should get one in IR... It's just a unity tactical spark marker light

Thank you
Hi man ! Very informative! QUESTION! Does the agilite k19 2.0 come with the placard buckles ? I’ve looked online and I can’t find it anywhere??? If they don’t do you know what kind to get and where ? Thanks if you answer this question !
They are not included. I get the itw qasm clips from milspec monkey
Ok Walsh, great review, so here’s my thing as a big guy, I wanna see this on Cody, to get an opinion as to wearability with Tactical Girth, would you recommend for bigger body types?
Hmmm good point. Remind me on the live. I'm sure we can get Cody involved on this part. You bring up a good point on different body types.
I think you'd still be good on the k19 honestly. It would give you the best fit too.
@@ThinLineDefenseCo roger that!
My only complaint is they don’t make them to fit 11x14 plates. Great video btw bud
I hate the popular placard system and how it is dependent on velcro. Favorite part of the K19 is that it doesn't completely rely on the bad velcro system. Great carrier
And I think that's what great, you have the option if you have a preference. Some companies just decide for you.
It's crazy that every time I look at new gear to get, you come out with a new video. Can you go over everything you have on there in a future video? The setup looks amazing.
Absolutely! Just know that some of it is "I wonder if this works... Nope.... What about this..."
So some of it is being tested on if it even serves a good purpose.
I'll gladly share though as I like to run a similar setup on all the carriers

@@ThinLineDefenseCo Few of us are hard core professionals either way. One finds out what works by testing and trying. Whould still love to see a short briefing by your setup.
Great video by the way, you sold me 200%👍
@@kutteknugen absolutely. I'll prioritize getting that up on deck for a video.
@@ThinLineDefenseCo thx man🙏
@@ThinLineDefenseCo thank you!
