    Thanks for reminding me to spend the $2 and order a proper one next time I order from a gun site. Although after spending another $500 on magazines this week to make sure I have enough to last until I can finally convince my wife to leave this state, that may be a bit.

    Am i crazy or is this reflex sight not working properly? The sight is stationary against a window and I’m moving the camera to simulate my eye moving and the point of impact moves with the camera instead of staying stationary on POI. Full story in the video description.

    Ordered something else outside of my norm to match my last outside of norm purchase. How many times does it have to be for it to be the new norm?

    If they made one in .44 mag I probably would have done that. But they don't.

    That's the plan for this one.

    Does anyone know of a plate carrier that also carries concealable soft armor? I'm currently having to run 2 vests and I'd like to combine them into one without replacing the soft armor

    I've found the Paraclete Origin but it's not yet for sale and the Condor Defender and Condor Exo

    LBX and London Bridge Trading can take a plate and soft armor to back it, but not soft panels. There's a few carriers that are like an IOTV that are soft or frag armor with integrated plate pouches.

    what are you looking to do?

    Yeah, I get that. Are you wearing it for PSD? Patrol? SWAT? CQB? Warrant Service? LRRP stuff? EOD searches? De mining? Surveillance?

    If you have "existing armor" you should look at their manufacturers and see if they have something cut specifically for their panels. Then look at the vest manufacturers who support soft armor.

    TYR, Tactical Tailor, MSM, SKD, LBT, LBX, First Spear, BAE, Eagle Industries, Tracer Tactical (is pretty awesome) Safe Life makes some cool but more overt stuff, Ferro Concepts makes some good covert stuff.

    Patrol up here has new vests that are about as thick as a few sheets of paper. They're crazy and I want one, but I'm not going to become a patrol cop just for that.
