A plate carrier. People think the carrier itself is bullet proof, but it isn't. It needs plates of AR500 steel or better to offer any kind of protection. She might as well be wearing a vest with a fucking watch chain or some shit.

Oh, you mean the entity wearing the vest? A plate carrier. some people think you can fit a limited amount of food on a plate, but with her vertical stacking method, she can clean out a buffet in only two trips.

Nice descriptive clarification.

I do recommend everybody get a plate carrier with decent plates. Avoid Shellback for now, there are literally no videos of those plates being tested. I'd buy and test for a youtube video if I knew I could at least break even on the cash.

Seems like a good idea. Galls has a decent selection; some are back ordered but the ship dates are reasonable.

And her plate carrier appears to have been purchased for someone smaller. In several directions.

The vertical stack method works for piles of shit too.

For plates, these perform far beyond what they're rated for. MrGunsNGear hit it with an AP round and it stopped it. https://lapolicegear.com/lapg-level3-plate.html?avad=190366_f1c9f93d9

Is it even a carrier? It looks similar to the “fashion vest” worn by Grandma’s Boy who threw the bomb at the federal courthouse.

Yeah, it's got a cumberbund. I'm sure she thought that was some type of sandwich when she was reading the features online.

I can’t place what make/model it is, which makes me think it’s a replica airsoft thing.

The ones you see people use in airsoft are capable of holding a plate, too. They all have the pockets inside. Unless it's just a LBV with molle.
