Grey Ghost Gear's President's Day sale has the Typhon version of their Minimalist Plate Carrier on sale for $57 and change. I'm picking one up as a spare rig to wear when it's 110 degrees in the summer and I don't want/need to be wrapped up in my Mayflower LPAC.
Has anyone here been rocking one of these for any appreciable amount of time? How do you have it set up?
I'm mostly interested in seeing if and how folks are attaching clip-in chest rigs to this PC. I have a Mayflower UW Chest Rig, QD, setup bare-bones with TenSpeed pouches for the LPAC and thinking about grabbing something like the EGL VOCR/Haley D3CR for a bit more versatility. Note: I'm not LE or Mil and have no specific "mission" to drive this gear train. This will be used mostly for classes/range use and in the infinitesimal chance I'll ever need it, I'll have it. And because I can. One of the reasons I like the Mayflower Low Profile Armor Carrier is the ability to scale it up or down and is easily adaptable to multiple platforms. I'd like to get at least a little of the same/similar versatility out of this PC.
The issue I'm seeing from looking at the PC is how to anchor the sides of the chest rig to the PC without using the waist strap and running it around the rear circumference of the PC. Down Range Gear has a lot of widgets that look like they'd be helpful, but I'd like to hear from folks who might have already tackled this particular issue with this PC or one similar without a cumberbun (eg the BFG Plateminus V1).
