Selling my old plate carrier since I got a new one

I should probably get something that isn't a Condor but I keep putting it off

What's wrong with condor lol

Nothing to my knowledge, been good to me. I just know the intent for it was airsoft and I don't know how it'd hold up in a rough environment with frequent use

Looking to get a strandhogg when I can put away the funds for it

@LickMiNoodle if you want a nicer plate carrier on a budget for the money the AR500 brand and spartan brand plate carriers are solidly built with good padding

I'm gonna look at 'em, thanks buddy @TacticalBeard

AR500 has a couple huge sales during the year. I believe one is the 4th of July.

If i am still employed I'll take it.

I got mine during one of the sales for like 240 with plates.

Damn, that's a good deal...any recommendations for head protection?

I'd have to ask my friend where he got his. You aren't gonna get rifle rated head wear, so pretty much it's a place to mount comms abs NVG if you got em. Otherwise, wear a cool boog related hat.

Well i CAN get shrapnel protection.

The carrier I got wasn't bottom tier either, it's the testudo model and I got all the anti spall upgrades on the level III+ plates.

Or large handgun protection

Oo

I'm waiting on payday to hit the gun shop and hopefully finish my AR

Nice.

Get a decent barrel, and be careful on the weight, that's pretty much the biggest source of pounds.

What length you going?

Idk, i guess carbine would work, what's that like 16?

I got 7.5"

Mine is a pistol/carbine

Yeah. You can also do 14.5"with a pinned and welded muzzle device to get a shorter barrel without paying the feds to SBR.

I'll just go compliant....i need to prep fast shit feels like it's about to hit the fan

Unless it's specifically for a DMR role, not a main battle rifle, then I would never go over 16"

Like I said tho, you can be compliant with a pinned and welded flash hider or brake.

Yea, that requires more money than i have....i have a welder but it's out of juice..well....metal to melt with the fuel

You get the idea

I've heard they are great

This will bring a 13.7" barrel up to legal length when pinned and welded.

Which should be done by a gun smith for record.

Which would be nice if i could find one.

True

Pinning and welding isn't too hard to do. Worst part is welding, but doesn't have to be a big weld.
