[@jeffgeesaman4386]

were you running plates in the carrier? I want to get something that I can use now as a chest rig and do more research on plates before I pull the trigger. Thanks

[@HarleyWood23]

I only had IIIA plates during testing. I shot all my rifles plates for YT videos. Haven’t replaced them yet.

[@HarleyWood23]

If you're interested in a recommendation, check out the performance of these Shot Stop plates i reviewed last year. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3KXZqN3qsakj8U

[@jeffgeesaman4386]

@@HarleyWood23 thanks I will do that. I'm just an average Joe myself but I like to be prepared. have you worn this without the plates? If so, is it functional/comfortable?

[@HarleyWood23]

Oh yeah. It’s much more comfortable without that added bulk. If you’re only concerned with pistol threats, IIIA is the way to go. They're much lighter and more flexible.

[@brentd6891]

Just get hesco L210s, 4401s, or RMA 1155s. Wearing a plate carrier without plates is dumb, just go chest rig if you're going to do that. Get special threat or level 4 plates that aren't steel. Be prepared to wear it often, because getting used to 14lbs of plates (unless you have a 1k+ budget, in which case plates get much lighter - e.g. hesco 3810) and magazines is not easy.

[@jaychen8605]

Ah humble and real intro. Thats deserves an immediate sub! Stay real!

[@HarleyWood23]

Thanks man

[@YETI-99]

Yea I really appreciate that too I come across all these clowns in the tacticool gear and as a soldier for the last decade I can't help but wonder the actual tactical experience folks have when reviewing gear that I'm interested in you got my sub stay safe 👍🏿🇺🇲

"It's time to go to war boys!" "What!? With who??!" *Throws on plate carrier* "Those damn weeds 😠"

[@TobyCostaRica]

My guns were range toys and home defense until 2020. Now I’m preparing for a 2 way range

[@stephenj5980]

I was in the military. Your review is better and makes more sense than most I've seen.

[@KotaManifest]

thanks for not being "that guy"

[@WiiR3d0000]

Seriously, you can tell he’s a good non douchey guy

[@darkelite94]

Honestly your test is a pretty good one for the average person, in the army a lot of the time I was wearing armor I was digging holes or clearing brush to set up defenses so testing comfort and move-ability is a big factor for good kit.

[@MrRideitlikeustoleit]

20 weeks later I finally got mine in the mail. I’m very impressed with the build quality, Highly recommend. I know it’s tough to be patient in times like these but it’s worth the wait. Also start saving your money to buy ceramic plates instead of steel. Thanks again Harley !

[@trojanalum2622]

Great video bro and much appreciate your honesty and humility. It's guys like you who will survive! Fight On!

[@user-le9jx7ws8m]

the most important thing, it seems like you are a great dad!!!

Humble and real intro. As a veteran you earned my respect and instant sub cant wait to see more of your content man keep it up.

Thanks brother

Dude I think I trust you're opinion more than garand thumb

[@brisen245]

Well than that was quick. Awesome video btw

[@vincent2662]

Thanks for the solid video. Very refreshing to watch a straight forward review from a normal everyday guy!

[@touofthehighplains]

After using my Agilite K5. It is a very good carrier. Well built and doesn't have the cheesy elastic webbing on the cummerbund like most plate carriers. But now I am looking into the K19 for the easy on easy off tubes.

[@jlindo1332]

I absolutely love the opening of this video. Thank you for being so honest and blunt.

[@HarleyWood23]

You’re welcome. Thanks for watching

[@spok209]

Dude seriously. It’s nice to see a fellow average joe that likes cool shit as well.

[@Krunchbyte1]

I like how they placed the shoulder tubes higher up. I saw some folks complaining about the tubes messing with their stock placement when they're right up on the plate. Looks like these guys took that into account.👌

[@dantediego]

this channel is really becoming one of my favorites! great work!

[@HarleyWood23]

Thanks man. Appreciate the kind words.

[@greencondoresq]

I gave you a thumbs up before I even watched your video because you put where I can skip to to get to the actual review. Thanks so much!

[@dorhasan4132]

So this video just popped up on my recommendeds I have absolute zero clue about this but I kept watching only because of you didn't know that this type of creators still exists well done brother keep up 👏

[@ColeMarter]

This is the first video I've seen from this channel, but I am VERY impressed. I really appreciate the forwardness of showing you're a civilian and not being some uber operator. Will be subscribing and hope to see more awesome content like this!

Thanks Cole. Appreciate it.

The best thing about that is being able to take it off/put on rapidly. Nice review.

Awesome info, yes I've seen all them advertised on IG thx for making the choice easier for us ordinary peeps. Happy Easter bro and stay safe!

You too bro.

[@trojanalum2622]

Thank You for your honesty, integrity and humility! Many of us actual warfighters would be glad to have you on our platoon any day!

[@HarleyWood23]

Thanks bro

[@johnyisfunny1]

It's about time someone that is an average person who trying to be prepared you can't beat that. Excellent video brother Stay strong stay safe and God bless

[@Joe-sh2tf]

As someone who has Prior military and a prepper, I appreciate your honesty and not wanting to be a wannabe dumbass like a lot of these KZbinrs are.

[@HarleyWood23]

thanks bro. stay safe out there. crazy times.

[@nathanzavala4288]

I been waiting to get my hands on one of these they look amazing

[@hanselong]

I appreciate your honesty.

[@SigfridSWE]

Really humble, like it. Good work

[@scuzzy2142]

Love it. The only thing it needs is hook and loop and swift clips to accept things like the micro fight.

[@daNeterAUsaru999]

I just purchased mine today as well as the camel hump that mounts on the back of it. I will probably purchase the assault pack this week as well. I did a lot of research and Agilite seemed to be the best one of the pack of plate carriers that i looked at.

[@Ferrari_M5]

Really good video and I appreciate the honesty and humility.

Just order my agilite k19 after your review! Thank you sir. Great review

[@HarleyWood23]

Awesome. Thanks for watching

[@TAVAAR7]

The k19 is top on my list for when I get another plate carrier. I've got a couple kits for soft and hard armor (including steel) each for it's own specific application.

[@vantave9946]

Love that intro! Great review

[@braaap690]

I’m sold! Been looking for a more slick high quality plate carrier. Great review and will test it on my property doing yard work.

[@furyfromtheskyiilee2193]

I appreciate you being honest and upfront on your background. My thing is...as former SOF / conventional guy that has seen multiple deployments, why not get after it / get yourselves a passport / get smuggled into the middle east and go fight for the YPG. This whole preparation thing....hmmm I'm like Adam Raciecki. One can't truly prepare. Anyway good luck and good video.

[@billangell6478]

More gear stuff. I like seeing how different people have their kit set up even if they're not super high speed

[@odinisgod4577]

honestly a great review and you have a perfect personality for this type of stuff....great shit!!!!!!!!!

Great video! Same situation, no leo/mil exp. looking for shtf gear. You hit the mark! Thank you!

[@HarleyWood23]

Thanks man. Appreciate you watching

[@amotif2287]

It is the algorithms of your previous google searches. Literally google anything random a few times and then watch over the week the ads keen to those searches. Same goes for KZbin Either way do love the honesty

[@HarleyWood23]

yes and no. I hadn't searched anything even remotely related. Yes, that is one way of targeting ads though. I've been employed in Digital Advertising for 13 years. I know exactly how they can be targeted which is why it caught my eye. The manufacturers can hardly keep up with demand right now, as is evidenced by the long lead times. Because it was a hot trending topic, they're pouring marketing dollars into targeted audiences with certain attributes and interest profiles. It's scary how much data we have on users across all channels, from purchase propensities to interest profiles. Instagram knows what I'm likely to respond to, and they serve up ads accordingly.

[@amotif2287]

HarleyWood it’s crazy! I dig the prepared aspect of living. I’ve love apocalyptic type movies and realized lately I should live my fantasies. Keep at it bro!

[@Murderface666]

The first 30 seconds, I know the feeling and I am ex-infantry. The reason why you are seeing a whole bunch of plate carrier, body armor, etc ads on places like instagram, is because within their code (facebook), they are collecting your data (looking over your shoulder) monitoring the sites you visit.

[@vade2]

I actually thought nobody else figured that out, if he has like 8 plate carriers and a YT for this sort of thing the ads are definitely tailored

[@MaxOstap]

This review convinced me. Going to order one now, test it out and then order more for rest of family.

[@StylishDeathbat67]

With my first child I didn't have the chance to try this but now with the second, this has been a terrific discovery! It does indeed distribute the baby weight in a better way. I do feel like there could be more weight on my shoulders but I might need to play with the straps more and see if that improves.I absolutely recommend this to every single parent out there!

[@jeffreyjackman7053]

Just stumbled upon the channel whilst looking at the Olight M2R Pro. I'm a police officer on leave presently, due to return to work soon. Just like to get my own gear to suit my needs rather than to depend on cheap issues. I just like your honesty in your reviews. Keep it up.

[@learnshareevolve1842]

Clearly, it stood up to that massive bubble assault! Great review, thanks!

[@mightyknoght1922]

realy great review - been eyeing this carrier for a while now. got an agilite helmet cover for my ops core and there quality is super legit so might just pull the trigger on this one

[@HarleyWood23]

Thank you. Appreciate you watching

[@MichaelBuckley284]

I ordered mine about 2 weeks ago now, definitely looking forward to it. I've gained weight since my college days (when I had lost 69 lbs). Working on getting back down so I wanted something that could change with my waistline. I too have had other plate carriers and I decided it was worth the investment for a solid carrier.

[@HarleyWood23]

Nice! Thanks for watching man.

Tier 9 operator here. Other channels: Quick cuts of sprinting from barrier to barrier and snapping rifles around, rapid fire, getting in contorted positions. Your channel: Riding a lawnmower, cutting down trees and blowing bubbles with your kids to check the fit of a plate carrier. Take my subscription, fellow responsible father trying to stay prepared for today’s nonsense. I just ordered one. $250 shipped with their President’s day sale.

Great review. I think you're featured on Agilite website. I decided to order this carrier after your review - and no regrets. My first carrier - very comfy and easy to use. One feedback: next time do your carrier testing yardwork with plates. Preferably lvl4 - cheaper ones. You know - the ones that weight 16 pounds combined.

[@jameshayden5053]

Upgrade Time. Great Video.

[@Skittlezz45]

Are the shoulder quick release straps/buckles strong enough to withstand a buddy drag, etc and will not quick detach?

Have you had any issues with the G hoooks on back of the cumberbun? Or the sinch sttaps loosening?

[@HarleyWood23]

Thanks brother. Appreciate you watching

[@johnyisfunny1]

You sir are doing the right thing there's nothing wrong with preparing to protect yourself and your family. I've learned more from watching your videos then most tactical videos were guys are doing exactly what you just described. Just because they're watching veterans running and gunning with all the latest gear I almost fell into that trend and when I realized they have deep pockets and other people supporting their channels so they can afford to buy the more expensive gear. Sorry but that's just not me. Take care stay strong and God bless. Big shout out from Houston Texas

[@thegoodfriendsnetwork]

Ordered this plate carrier do you know of the HRT placard with swift clips would easily attach to the front of this plate carrier? I dont see any attachments loops for the swift clips and I failed to see that when I ordered? If not what works?

[@blademan6075]

Great work on this video. I like your honesty. There are a lot of other channels out there that could take a page from your book. Keep up the great work! I just subscribed. By the way, tier 6 operator isn’t so bad, it beats the hell out of no tier at all! Lol!

[@HarleyWood23]

Great video, Thank you for doing and being honest about your prepper point of view. This is one of the best straight forward plate carrier videos I have seen and I have been watching alot. Keep up the great work. What is your opinion for a prepper, k19 carrier versus the qore performance ICE carrier?

[@HarleyWood23]

Thanks man. appreciate that. Honestly, i wish i could speak from a place of experience regarding the Qore carrier. I have seen it though and i really like the modularity and out-of-the-box thinking they applied to the design process.Unfortunately, any opinion i give though would be uninformed since i have no experience with it.

[@deusvult7947]

No plates when wearing all day. Adding plates make it a completely different story. Almost any carrier is comfortable without plates.

[@NotTellingYou-]

The reason guys run plate carriers with the shoulder straps closer to the neck is for getting your rifle into the pocket of your shoulder comfortably without the strap getting in the way. Not saying it’s the best way to go but that’s what I’ve heard from most guys to have been running rigs for awhile.

[@TymeTaylor]

Those ads aren't trending due to interest by the populace, they are targeted ads aimed directly at you. Also, great video, been looking into Agilite PCs.

[@HarleyWood23]

Trust me, it IS trending. I've been employed in Digital Advertising for 13 years. I know exactly how they're targeted which is why it caught my eye. The manufacturers can hardly keep up with demand right now, as is evidenced by the long lead times. Because it's a hot trending topic, they're pouring marketing dollars into targeted audiences with certain attributes and interest profiles. If it wasn't trending, marketers wouldn't be promoting it so heavily.

Hey Harley thanks for your videos there owsome...do you have a video about how you mount your chest rig mag ..I'm in the market now and trying to pull the trigger on this. I'm all set with the one your showing with G-code BUT how do you mount them secure on your agilite k19 vest.

Any chance you will do a review on shaw concepts arc v2 ?

[@plankhill]

Just a note... This product has a 20 week... yes, not 20 day, but 20 WEEK lead time.... Still ordered mine, the best I have found yet, with the most flexibility of use, and can attach a bag to it later if needed. Great Review by the way.

[@jonnyt16]

Just curious, when you did all that testing did you have actual plates in the carrier? Makes a big difference. Also, most importantly, how does shouldering a rifle (again, with plates in it) feel? I've found that most plate carriers, especially ones with buckles on the straps force me to have an inconsistent buttsock to shoulder weld. At the very least a different should position from when I'm not wearing a carrier.

[@HarleyWood23]

I had soft IIIA plates in it. I shot my rifle plates for reviews. I did not do any shooting with this on yet.

[@BareSphereMass]

I just got mine, and I love parts of it, but hate one thing. IT DOES NOT FIT SMALL PLATES (despite what the website says). They slide around, and the retention mechanism inside (is a joke, and) is only good for the 10x12 plates . Everything else about it is nice. I'm 5'9" 160lb and it fits well, but I have maxed out the adjustment mechanism. If I was any smaller, it would be too big.

[@SS_Brews-N-Bullets]

Agilite is running 20 weeks lead time right now. Crye is also another great carrier. Still long lead, but less than 20

It's worth the wait. Buy once, cry once
