Minimalist Plate Carriers - Flyye FAPC / Emerson JPC?

[Airsoft_Mr B]

Any recommendations? I'm looking for one in black as part of a relatively inexpensive, lightweight CQC loadout I want to do over time. I'm thinking just a black t-shirt with navy Blackhawk trousers (£8 off Edgar Brother's eBay) or jeans with my OD kneepads, then the economy / cheap version Emerson FAST helmet (I'll buy a better quality FMA one for my other loadouts) or a cap.

So basically I want to pay as little as possible really.

 

I was looking at an Emerson JPC but it's £46 on Ali-Express which is annoyingly just over the tax threshold (I guess that's what you can call it?) If 20% is £9 or above you have to pay VAT IIRC.

I'm also considering some other alternatives such as the FAPC.

I wouldn't really want to pay over £100 as it'd probably just be used for CQC.

Your supposed to pay vat, doesn't mean that you will, I got the MODI JPC from shooter cb a while back and never paid any duty. Would recommend it over the emerson

 

Never used the fapc but you can't really go wrong with flyye stuff as it's usually ask ways decent quality

i used to have a gen 2 FAPC and i friggin loved it so comfy. you can get the sides for it so if you need a larger kit you can add them on

There's the Crye Precision Multicam Airlite PC EKO1:

 

At £175 each they're very dear though.

FAPCs are about 100-120 i think.

Yeah 120 on military 1st and the 1st gen ones are £70.

 

Thanks for all the replies
