I purchased a plate carrier a while back and absolutely hate it. I've been looking for a basic light-weight vest that will stay together and keep from moving around when running. I'm using M4 mags and have a few 40mm shells.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Why do you hate your plate carrier?
Pictures?

When I'm moving, it moves around more than I'd like (~6 inches vertically, 4 inches horizontally). It has no MOLLE on the sides and redundant velcro where webbing could be. It doesn't cover much area height-wise, making it difficult to fit more than a row of mag pouches along the very bottom.

Well, tightening all the straps should keep it from moving around. Also, you can buy a plate carrier with a cummerbund. The looks like the OE Tech Spec Ops, just go on airsoft gi, pick out an OE Tech/Condor plate carrier with a cummerbund, and have Dave get it for you.

I had one that doesn't move at all. It doesn't have a back to it just two straps. Less molle real estate than that vest though I think. I don't know what mine is called though either

I tightened every single strap, I guess I'll drop by Dave's and see what he's got.
Should I stick with plate carriers or buy a vest? The only difference I see is vests seem more flexible.

Will you be out for Shattered skies tomorrow?
If you are, I am selling a plate carrier.

No, sadly. I have plans to go to Randolph AFB for the airshow.
