T.REX AC1
Body armor and plate carriers are nothing new but the demand for them has never been higher. Citizens of all walks of life are turning tobody armor
as a measure of preparedness in these troubled times. To meet the needs of our fellow citizens and our high standards for an armor carrier, we’ve resolved to create and supply our own. Thus, theT.REX ARMS AC1.
The AC1 comes preassembled, ready to roll right out of the box as a slick plate carrier, complete with front and rear plate bags, padded shoulder straps, two buckles for attaching aplacard
and an elastic cummerbund with small, medium, and large pouches.
To carry additional equipment or front-loaded magazines, you’ll need to purchase ashingle , chassis, or mag pouch and attach it to either the buckles or velcro on the front plate bag. The AC1 is compatible with most of the popular mag pouches on the market.
T.REX 556 KYWI Placard
Made in partnership with Esstac, this is our 556 KYWI Placard which is designed to hold three.223/5.56 magazines
and attach to plate carriers
via buckles and/or hook and loop. Utilizing a hybrid Kydex and nylon design, you get all the rigidity you expect from a Kydex pouch with the lack of noise you want from a nylon pouch. These pouches feature Esstac’s Kydex wedge insert (KYWI), which provides the needed retention to secure your magazines without the need for a bungee cord. This will also accommodate 5.45×39 magazines.
The backside of this placard is hook material, so it can easily grab on to the velcro found on the front of most plate carriers and cummerbund flaps. The buckles are attached to a hook & loop material that can be adjusted in length to fit perfectly on your plate carrier or chest rig (high or low). Or removed for slick-use.
It does not come with side buckles, but there are four side loops sewn in (two on each side) so you can add your own buckles if you wish to run this with a traditional chest rig harness from companies like HSP, Spiritus, or Velocity Systems. It also comes with a Velcro backer that covers the interior hook field so it’s non-abrasive if you choose to run it as a chest rig.
