UR Tactical OPS Plate Carrier - Opinions?

AnthonyG · July 29th, 2016, 19:18

Looking for some opinions on the UR tactical line of plate carriers. I think I might pick one up.
If you have experience with any of them, I'd like to hear about it. What's the stitching like, how's the material etc. etc..

Have my eye on one of their Integrated tactical plate carriers.

I have experience with their uniforms which I've found to be excellent. I would assume for the price these plate carriers must be pretty decent. Seems like it would be very similar to a mayflower APC with the QASM clips.

If you can wait a bit, I was planning on doing a massive UR-Tac order and I think SuperCriollo was as well (we could split shipping). Not sure what the quality of it is (heard it's among the best for repros although not quite up to snuff to the real thing), but I don't have a lot of choice if I want a full Pencott Greenzone kit.

I might be tempted, depending on how much it would save doing group shipping.
Last time I ordered from them I found the shipping to be reasonable.

I'm actually looking at the ranger green option which is currently out of stock. I messaged them and it will be in stock in 2 weeks time, so I'm not sure how that works for your timeline.

I'm looking at the same one in Greenzone. Don't worry about the out of stock timeline lol, a bunch of mine are too. What was your shipping quote last time? Mine was around 75USD, but maybe my order was just that massive...

AnthonyG · July 30th, 2016, 00:59

I just checked. Their system quotes me $38 for a pair of pants and a vest.
I've found most retailers from asia ship by weight, so unless your orders truly are massive, its hard to get significant savings.

I cannot comment on tac gear but I saw there pants and was impressed at the quality of the build... material wasn't as thick as my TRU-SPEC but lightyears ahead of the cheaper Emerson crap.

I've had two UR-tac PC's and a chest rig before, their quality is pretty good.

I was taking a look at their OPS Advanced Modular Plate Carrier System too. I'd be down for group shipping.

I've been very impressed with UR-Tac products and recommend them to anyone who's on a budget. I myself have worn Crye for the last decade plus, but if I wasn't going to spend the small fortune on Crye, if go UR-Tac.

SuperCriollo · July 31st, 2016, 10:07

Yup, I've got that PC in greenzone. The quality is great. It has a kangaroo pouch in front if you wanna put kydex inserts there. The only bad thing that I found is that the shoulder straps lack a bit of padding, but it's nothing too serious. If you want a bit more padding, you could always look at their advanced plate carrier, which also gives you the option to turn it I to a chest rig.

AnthonyG · July 31st, 2016, 10:44

I like the modularity of the integrated PC a bit better. The advanced carrier looks a bit more bulky. From a picture I saw the back plate pocket has two flaps which would make it awkward to use aftermarket cummerbunds.

I've bought "OPS ADVANCED MODULAR PLATE CARRIER SYSTEM IN RANGER GREEN" extremely good in the summer so far it's more breathable in comparison to a CIRAS and its extremely light weight, although I don't like the new molle system its super tight and you can't really hang shit like you would in the old molle but it's not a big deal, the inner pockets of the cummerbund are hard to reach in, but at least there are pockets.

lurkingknight · August 3rd, 2016, 22:39

it's not a bad price for an integrated pc... I kinda want one, but don't need one.

Do you have any pictures of the PC with the cummerbund removed, particularly of the back plate pocket? I'm wondering if it would work with an elastic cummerbund.
