Ferro Slickster
SKD’s Shipping ROCKS! Had my order in hand in less than 4 days! Paired with a Mayflower Placard, Spiritus SACK, and a pair of Hesco L210’s (hurry up Saber Solutions) I’m ready for the Flugaloo!

Another great Ferro Concepts product
The plate carrier is very modular with several adjustable lengths in the shoulder straps and the cummerbund. Only worn around the house due to preparing for a deployment, but it is very comfortable. Love the SKD exclusive Multicam Black also.

SKD FC Slickster
Well first of all, SKD has amazing service. The package was mailed and delivered within a few days. The slickster is great, I love the modularity and the elastic cumber bun. I haven't had the chance to run it yet because I am waiting on Spiritus Systems chest rig. I think it's going to go together great and I can't wait to go out and train in it. Great review as far as customer service and can't wait to put it to use. Cheers.

Yes, yes, yes. Simple and effective
Love this carrier, streamlined, simple, effective. A bit costly for how simple it is. Honestly, after looking at it, I could likely make one in my basement without too much trouble. But that said the system is everything you need and nothing you don't. Easy to run covert, or to scale up with pouches and run overt. Can carry up to 12 mags no problem (however reaching all of them might be tricky). This is my favorite plate carrier by far. My only fear is that with regular use the velcro and elastic might wear out, but only time will tell for that.
