Mira Safety Haz-Suit Review
I was surprised with how fast it shipped to my APO. Atomic Defense also threw in some small goodies with the order too which was highly appreciated. This plate carrier is very comfortable and very quick and easy to don. Fits SAPIs great!
This plate carrier is one of the better carriers I have used,**** I love how easy and simple the carrier is to adjust to multiple sizes and how much room there is to customize it to suit my accommodations.
Fits great and very comfortable.
I got this carrier with level 3+ PEAD plates. I’m very happy with the purchase! This was recommended to me by an Israeli soldier currently wearing it in Gaza! Next, I’m adding side carriers and Micro MAP. I hope to God that I will never need to use it, but must be prepared.
Dope plate carrier, worth the wait
