Haley Strategic flat pack. its an awesome back panel. collapses flat with nothing in it expands(with zippers) into a small day pack to carry whatever you need. Attaches with MOLLE and has a set of straps so it can be worn individually.
I pretty much have the same setup but got the medium back panel. I can put a bladder in there and also route my antenna thru the shoulder pads into it.
16:31 from my experience I would tell you to put the knife on your non-dominant side because lets say u needed your dominant hand to protect your pistol from being stolen and your knife would be on the same side as the pistol you wouldn’t be able to use the knife **Sorry if my english is not perfect It’s not my native language
Why the F*** didn't i see this before i spent @k on mine! I actually love this setup you have. I settled for a crapy med kit placement and a small cumber strap because I was impatient. Superb job on this build my friend as I have had a few now and appreciate a true functional build. Not a fan of carrying to much to be prepared for a miracle situation. 100's of hours of research and you have nailed it. Oh and your radio pouch looks Amazing!
Great video! Everybody has their own take on things. I like slick carriers... you can throw your load on top and be good to go. If you run ALICE gear or FLC it can go over the slick, and slick can be removed for fast/light movements. What you demonstrate looks expensive: specific components to be compatible with that specific carrier. Just saying.
Question.. I'm thinking of pros and cons of having the secondary weapon on the plate carrier along with rifle and pistol magazine pouches and tourniquet pouch a flashbang grenade pouch and a trifold handcuff pouch and a drop gp On the belt just ifak dump pouch a rifle magazine pouch an extra sof t a blade flashlight and probably two gp what do you think?
Dig it. I appreciate the GP "build", makes me feel a lot better about mine. Thoughts on a "tactical satchel/minuteman bag" as an addendum for more sustainment? Edit: TLDR, have you done a video on squaring away & packing a ruck(ish) style pack? That's my current adventure and am researching.
Satchels or half packs are a great way to have that “little extra” grab and go gear. Especially when it comes to medical. We do not but it is on the to do list.
Is it weird that at a 17 year old, I'm watching this I fucking love the idea of modern minutemen even the plate carrier and helmet looks dope I gotta get a job to buy this stuff.
It’s not weird if you aren’t weird about it. If you want to invest in this idea then really make sure to do A LOT of research on it before actually buying anything. There are a lot of brands that make a lot of different things in a lot of different patterns and sizes. Offbase Supply Co is a good website to check and get a feel to what talks to you in regards to different pieces of kit from top to bottom. Make sure you get proper good plates too, not the ones OP put in the video, those are ass, respectfully. Once you get your kit together make sure to actually train it it.
Great video, choosing the OD green is a better kit color for civilians to use over wolf grey or ranger green in urban environments for SHTF/ bugout for so low vis like color?
Doesn’t matter much I don’t think. Armory is made to get you out of the situation not for continuous abuse. The only argument could be if the carrier was super bulky causing a larger profile for the person wearing it.
I would look in to the LBAC by HRT Tactical (which you can find on our website), which is specifically designed for heavier load outs and bearing weight. You may also want to look at the Assault Plate Carrier by Velocity. Both of these come in a L/XL size which accommodate the larger 11x14 plates, which I would imagine you’ll need given your size description.
Part of their gear is made in the USA, part is foreign made. From what I have been told, they are in the process of transferring more and more production to the USA only.
Probably the most popular source right now is IWA international for different bangers or smoke devices. All you have to do is complete their online safety course and then you can buy (which is free to take!).
Good vid. Don't personally agree with having a bladder on the carrier but having a frag pouch or two has definitely been useful for extra tqs, or bangers. I'm needing to get a dedicated pouch for my xts but I'm wanting something inside the cumberbund personally.
What is up with dudes using hesco 210s they’re not even level 3 rated. 308 is one of the most popular cartridges in the US and still dudes will recommend and wear plates that can’t stop it lol. You could get battle steel 3+ poly/ceramic plates that do the same thing as those hescos and actually stop 308.
@@brycehamilton9604 yeah for real idk why dudes will spend money on a non nij rated plate, but then complain and trash talk on dudes wearing level 4 that legit stop everything and weigh the same as the l210s.
Everyday citizen, then shows a plate carrier to larp GIJOE in the desert. I never was a GIJOE being to young for Vietnam & to old for The Gulf War! As an everyday citizen I carry a pistol which I back up with a rifle. So I would then like to back that up with body armor. So I need black & if I have the jargon right, slick! Being a believer in what's probable over possable. I dought I'll be in the zombie apocalypse. I'd like to join the milita but being a minuteman to rich for my blood. So realistically how do I keep it simple stupid!
Your content is getting much better man! Super helpful for us!!
Great video bro. The camy paint for going up and down stairs killed me HAHA
I figured we’d get a few laughs out of that one

Arguing about having a 7 mag load out. *laughs in 17 mag loadout.*
You beat my 12
@@jambi619 I run a total of 14, with four of them being in my ruck.
You want to impress me? Put your full load and do a 5 mile ruck march. You will rethink your load
Yet you can’t waddle out the front door-way to go tard cart!
About the stupidest shit I’ve heard in a while.
Try sprinting 100 yards
You need 17 mags your a terrible shot I have 20
Standard 7 mag load out, plus another 6 mags under the arms, plus another 6 mags in the pack, plus another 2 mags on the belt.
I pretty much have the same setup but got the medium back panel. I can put a bladder in there and also route my antenna thru the shoulder pads into it.

**Sorry if my english is not perfect It’s not my native language
While this is a perfectly reasonable reason, I placed preference on access to my radio for my non dominant hand
Also good idea to hide it on your plate carrier so rando can’t just see it easily

Need to know how to program the xts 5000. Got one off eBay but can’t find software to program it

Just bought a shellback tactical rampage 2.0 plate carrier
Nice back panel if you got a buddy. Prefer to run a backpack so I don't need to remove my plate carrier to access things
Keep this up man
I’m an ex nfl lineman at 6’7 311lbs, what plate carrier would you recommend for my particular size?

@@EverydayCitizensTactical thanks for the advice and for your service. You got a new sub and keep up the great content
Great content 👍🏻
What is the Price point on the setup in the video run? Would add back and side plates.
Would have been nice for those of us that haven’t sized a lot of plate carriers to have kept the camera rolling and shown how to attach all the gear
Would like the link to the map site you referenced. Thank you
CalTopo is the service
Thank you@@EverydayCitizensTactical
...there it is.😂
Good stuff my dude, take my like and subscription.
What about wearing a battle belt with that medical dangle? Do you wear a battle belt? How about a video on them.
i respect you because of your tattoo in the right arm
Is the carrier made in the usa?
Part of their gear is made in the USA, part is foreign made. From what I have been told, they are in the process of transferring more and more production to the USA only.
I wear a plate carrier so that my vital organs are protected in the instance of a gun fight, everything else is icing on the cake.
I hear that brother
Where can one get said flashbang or smoke grenade

The prepper world and the gun runners have finnaly come together.
As a civilian if you need more than 4 mags, you are in deep enough that 17 won’t save you either.

Dude, did you serve in Ranger Regiment... You look super familiar...
Can’t say that I did. Marine Corps here
@@EverydayCitizensTactical All good, well you definitely have a Twin in Regiment!
Nice loadout but over $1500 a little out of range price wise for me.
@@yatoyato9874 how would that help? It’s still the same amount of money
@@tizdizzley I built almost the same thing. It just took me over a year. I built it a piece at a time.

Carry as much ammo as you can because it probably still won’t be enough lmao.
