I recently purchased a plate and carrier, and I must say the quality is excellent. Upon receiving my order, I was impressed by the craftsmanship and attention to detail. The delivery was quick and hassle-free, adding to my overall satisfaction.
I wore the plate for approximately four hours, and throughout that time, I found it to be very comfortable. It allowed for a good range of motion without any sense of restriction or discomfort. The design fits well and feels secure, making me feel confident while wearing it. Overall, I am truly happy with my purchase and would recommend it to others looking for similar gear.
RTS Tactical is an excellent company. Their customer service is quick, polite, and professional, always responding in a timely manner. 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.
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.
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.
The carrier is great took the 10x12 plates I have no problem. The only thing at this point I don’t like is the shoulder straps don’t stay on top if the padding. I would suggest another loop that the sholder strap goes thru to keep it on top of the padding. I will have to make something to fix that problem.
Feels good and is sized so it will fit a big guy such as myself comfortably. The cumberbun could be made out of stiffer material I would suggest so it doesn't wobble around and spin on itself while putting the vest on and off however it is a very good and comfortable vest.
DO NOT ORDER THE 3XL.. unless you are a really, really big guy!! I am 6.4' and 340ibs and this carrier is way too big. the straps hang half way down the front of the carrier and i have the cummerbund pulled as tight as it goes. It is the best carrier i have purchased and it would fit great if i would of ordered the correct size. I ordered the 11x14 plates and they fit and feel amazing. this carrier is built to last. I'm not sure about RTS Tactical return policy as I took it out of the plastic and set it aside for a week or so before i tried it on and threw away the original packaging. Even if they don't switch it out to a smaller size because of my mistake, i love this carrier so much I will be ordering a new one and a couple for the rest of the family. RTS has proven to be high quality in both carriers and plates!!!
I grabbed the 11x14 Premium plate carrier and it’s awesome! Lots of adjustment, very comfortable, well stitched. I can’t say enough good about this product. I bought this for my Ruck runs and home defense and it’s comfortable enough to run in! Added an abdominal pouch/plate extension with admin pouch. I’m 6Ft 208Lbs and it fits perfect with some adjustment.
I bought this because of the way this country is headed. I want to be protected as well or better than my enemies. That’s why I choose my active shooter kit. What sold me was the videos showing how well it stopped everything they fired at it. I hope I never need it but now I feel prepared and protected for what might be coming.
