Which Plate Carrier should I choose?

[@benitoorozco2207]

This video literally made me fall in love with the product as a whole. Regardless of which plate carrier to go with, they both provide just about the same amount of functionality and practicality mixed in with comfort.

[@miller_de]

Hope this turns into a series resulting in the presentation of the K19 v4 with all the cable management of the Zero and the new cummerbund integrated 😁

[@TheJoeml85]

They need to make a new k19 with the kzero shoulder straps and the Velcro flap in the back and the need to make a new kzero with the straps inside the plate bag that holds the plates I have no idea what plate carrier I want between the 2 Agilite s or the was recon plate carrier

[@CameronMay-vd7ll]

So hard to choose a plate carrier without videos like this! love how he details every part this video explains it all, k19 seems the most practical imo, lots of options! Great stuff!

[@CaptBongo]

I just retired from LE work and ran the K19 carrier for three years. I did sell it to a co worker upon leaving and it is still in use. Very comfortable for use during a twelve hour shift in South Texas. Highly recommend it to anyone who's agency allows external carriers.

[@wcsdiaries]

Did you not have issues shouldering your rifle?

[@CaptBongo]

no issues at all. ran AR500 Swimmers cut plates in the carrier.@@wcsdiaries

[@chltmdwp]

​​​@@wcsdiariesyou do if you have a brace. My brace has a slick end so it doesn't stick to the shoulder strap. Suppressor, optics and Law folder add tremendous weight so this doesn't help either when shouldering my AR. But with a good stock, this is not an issue, tried it with my SCAR 17.

AMAP III assault pack: The pack needs attachment straps so you can self access the pack without a team member helping. Straps like the Flatpack Piggyback Straps used by Haley strategic or the Recondite Strap Kit used by Defense mechanisms. Being able to access your bag yourself and put it back on without using bulky pack straps over bulky plate carrier straps is a game changer

[@IronRabbit]

Yes please! The AMAP needs piggyback straps. The pack is already setup to receive them you just need to make the strap kit.

[@Dakota_Steel]

I agree. The pack is 95% setup for it so it would be a missed opportunity not to take it the last 5%. It would definitely make the pack stand out in the marketplace, there are only a few packs that have this capability.

[@rainbow_tactician]

If you need a back panel get a back panel, if you need to access your own gear get a backpack.. with this bag you can do both.. no need to buy more hype gear

[@rainbow_tactician]

@@IronRabbit bro.. it comes with backpack straps. Just.. wear it as a bag?

[@Lean-Sixsigma]

@@rainbow_tactician It seems you do not know what piggyback straps are and how they work. Or you have never used them before, once you use them you will realize that it is the only way to go. Using backpack strap over plate carrier straps is a joke , the straps will always get in the way at a critical time when shouldering your rifle. And using a back panel you can never access your kit yourself you will always need someones help to access your panel. With piggyback straps you can shoulder your rifle and access you pack there is zero reason to not use them. In combat you must plan for all out comes and being able to get to your gear without compromising use of your rifle is important so the third option of piggyback straps in very important especially if you operate in a small team

[@martinkolar5716]

Thank you for work youre doing for military/police community, its awesome. Im proud to be part of your TE program, its nice to have company that listens to your opinions and feedback to further improve their stuff. Quality of your videos is very good, very informative, keed doing this good job.

[@danrg3515]

So much badass clips all in one video. Great work guys! Been eyeing the k-zero for a while and I've heard nothing but good things about it. I'll be getting one when the next paycheck comes around.

[@camerondawe9949]

I think that the next generation of the K-Zero should bring back the plate bag retainer straps, would probably help with weight displacement like in the K19

[@robinsylvas3546]

It’s hard to pick just one because they both are great products. I don’t own a plate carrier at the moment but if had to choose K-Zero is what I would choose. Love Agilite products.

[@Mudhorn.Wrangler]

This is a great breakdown/comparison video! Clears up some of the questions I had about the differences between the carriers. Definitely leaning more towards the K-Zero carrier now. Seems to add a lot more functionality/options for configuration that I would need.

[@texasranger24]

Love both carriers, but i would love it even more if you had more color options in the future. The German army plate carrier notoriously sucks, but we can't buy yours for duty use unless you make them in Flecktarn camo. And i am sure the French and British would also love one in their respective color patterns.

[@Agilitetactical]

Thanks for the support and for the feedback. We hear ya and more colors are on the way 💪🦂

[@magnumopus1628]

@@Agilitetactical Ditto! I would also love one with italian camo (vegetato and multiland) as well. Flecktarn and Vegetato are the best camo patterns for the fall season in many parts of the world. Also, is the triple pincer placard going to be made in mutlicam-black too?

[@TnTriton225]

I always thought A-Tacs was a good pattern(especially the original) but it didn't seem to catch on with big name companies.

[@Lean-Sixsigma]

@@Agilitetactical It would be great if you could offer a NIR Compliant version of the K-Zero.

[@incognito1409]

I never understood the obsessions with what effectively are custom camo patterns. They were literally designed to work in one terrain type only. Hardly cost effective. Ranger Green and other monotone green colorations work fine in basically 9 out of 10 surroundings, especially when mixed in with some OD and FDE here and there. Works beautifully in the woods as well as in urban areas. There is a reason the IDF is outfitted like this. Why the Bundeswehr hasn't figured this out (and reverted to OD or RG) yet is a mystery to me. Ranger Green blends in and works just about anywhere and everywhere, leaving only the need for a one time investment in one set of equipment. In temperate climate zones we have no business in the desert, that leaves forests and urbanized areas only and hence just one set of equipment. Camo is just a pain in the neck. I always suggest getting rid of it.

[@FYRSTWAFFEN]

THANKS FOR ALL THE TIPS. I AM IN LOVE WITH MY K-19

[@Mark-vq1xh]

The k-zero would be my pick. They both can be tailored for your needs but love the idea of a slick upper. Running the belt with no modifications and a quick change velcro flap makes total sense. Nice job.

[@texasranger24]

Since the K-Zero is your most compact and shooting/agility friendly carrier, could you also add different form factors? Like a dedicated carrier for shooters cut plates, so they don't wiggle around. And/ or add the two adjustment straps from the K19 back in, they were cool for both securely and tightly holding the plates and also distributing their weight.

[@annatarthelightbringer1363]

Marom dolphin , an israeli conpany also makes carriers. More dedicated to certain other aspects

[@nightstripesoperator]

❤

[@NickTerry-td1op]

As a LEO I like the idea behind both depending on the task at hand. The new pouches and attachments you can tell are from people who have had to put these things thru their paces and actually work for the user instead of against them. Great products keep it up!

[@texasranger24]

I would love to see a variety of plate carrier danglers for the rear of the plate carrier that are dimensioned to make it more comfortable when sitting in a vehicle. Something useful that doubles as spine support to prevent back pain. A first aid kit. A holder for a thin and long water bottle.

[@Wandrew223]

K-Zero seems to provide some additional functionality and features that would be useful for the end user. Both carriers provide an outstanding piece of kit that would be beneficial in the field. Well done! 🎉💪🏼

[@docreggiefirefox4811]

Absolutely the best, well designed, great concept and superb quality. Love them all! Kudos to the company and hoorah for the developers. More power and SHALOM!

I couldn't decide which one to go with and I was leaning K-19 but after watching this K-Zero is the way for me to go. As I will be in and out of vehicles. Very helpful video. Thanks.

[@ChristpBacon-x2n]

K zero. As a patrolman all theway

[@texasranger24]

A great new product would be a large ballistic west that also accepts plates, and that works great as a plate carrier. So ballistic 3a protection all around, maybe the new and thin SafeLife Defense panels, but the also a way to safely hold plates above that. This would appeal to a lot of police/swat teams that mostly face handgun threats and appreciate greater soft armor coverage while also having rifle protection (ideally from thin and light level3 or level 4 ICW plates). But vehicle turret gunners and grunts that mostly dig trenches against artillery shrapnel could also use it.

[@incognito1409]

I love my K19 exactly for the elaborated on reasons. Zero is good as well. Each is geared towards different preferences. Different strokes for different folks. K19 is absolutely perfect for my needs and I live how it integrates with my AMAP III. Anything Agilite makes is top notch👍🏻

[@derkai1739]

I really am in love with all the features of the K-Zero Plate Carrier and am really looking forward to getting it. I have also asked myself if you guys are planing any Battlebelts, because i already have some Agilite gear and would expect a really good and high quality battlebelt from Agilite.

[@JayG-qm2kn]

Great video. It helps a lot. Hopefully more such videos for new products. Some ideas for new versions: quick-release without buckles for k0; optional add-on straps/loops/velcro to integrate chest harness (one piece donning) on k0; ex. Snigel-type one-sided unbuckling between amap and K0 for quick access to pack; micro map-like back panel combo for k0; lighter, more streamlined amap with edc look optional cover patches; new organizer for the amap with more flexible storage for slightly bigger stuff (some stuff is bulky and elastic too tight; size-adjstable magpouch with pincers so bigger mags cold potentially fit too; non-water absorbing material PC option; option to have minimalistic plate holder for for k0; customizable k-straps for packs, incl. micro maps (minimalism-padded combo i.e. remove padding for minimalism and packability if desired); a fully modular option enabling chest rig-PC combo with maximum customization.

[@viklund2725]

Perhaps modded (7:53) K19 for me as a sharpshooter and have long hours with slow movements and waiting for opportunities for action or only information gathering for further link, the convenience is of great importance and that I can customize the vest with knife holder. and on the front 2 pcs 9mm mag left side holder and 2 pcs 7.62 mm holder and mag bag for extra mixed candy. on the back liquid and food as well as medical care and more ammunition. First aid in the leg pocket and Glock17 at the right hip. would be very interesting to test this combo and compare it to the Swedish setup we use.

K-Zero all day, it was made to improve the K-19 and respond to user feedback from professional reviewers and other serious training guys. Not saying to throw out your K-19 if you have one but if you get the K-19 today, tomorrow you'll be wishing you could easily drop-in upgrade the cummerbund and have a slimmer profile carrier that is built around your plate size. Great video, and lots of innovative gear showed, really remarkable system of gear that Agilite's been able to develop over the past few years.

[@wicked_ix]

As an infantrymen it’s very important to access assault pack on the go or even take it off completely on the the go. I love the k19, so what I did was bought a buckle strap adapter kit. I used the buckles on the shoulder straps of the k19 and the straps on the amap3 were the shoulder straps of the amap3 are located. Now I have the option of a quick release. This cost me an extra $20. Would of been nice if it had already came with this option from the start but either way love what they are doing at Agilite.

I would love to see an Agilite belt made from Tegris. Super thin, super light, super strong. And give us an ability to direct mount holsters and Safariland forks on it. Not the horrible Safariland UBL or the better but still annoying True North adapters that go over your belt, but something that directly screws into the Tegris without any bulk or rubbing spots. Plus, such a belt would be ideal to hold your pistol and rifle pouches on your 1st line gear.

[@Das_DVS1]

🦂AGILITE: Which Plate Carrier Should You Choose? I personally would need access to both of them (smart play Agilite) depending on the mission and the longevity and agility needed for the mission. I personally like the K-ZERO for short time low gear mission. I also would still have a use for the K-19 for those missions that would take you out into the bush for longer periods of time where you will need to carry more gear and my need larger shields (plates). I love and Will need all your accessories and pouches and a substantial I-FAK. Also if I get stuck with a big belt gun the K-ZERO would be best. As for thinking of other items that may be needed I would have to get hands on.

Does the bare placard come with a pad to cover the back? Can you fit 2 gp pouches on the front of the pincer? A good combo would be. Placard + pincer + 2 x pistol pincer put the admin or 2 gp pouches add a H- harness and you would have a sweet chest rig.

[@munichlegend3231]

i have the k-zero amazing to workout in and from what i’ve read amazing for short(er) mission sets / think direct action. you can scale up a k-zero however you want and it’ll hand the weight with ease. K19 is designed to be worn for a loooong time / think green side missions, patrols, etc. you can scale up a k19 it’ll do it comfortably they’re 2 distinct carriers each solving their own problems. first figure out your missions set and purchase accordingly.

Comfortability is huge for me, being able to move and it not be cumbersome is a big deal. I like the K zero because it’s higher on the shoulder. And that it contours to the body. It’s lower profile and you can customize the shit out of it. The K19 seems to have mesh, and that means it’s breathable and that it awesome because it does get hot, and I can’t think of a better option than the k19. It’s honestly hard to say which one but I believe the k zero is an option I would pick
