REVIEW: Eagle Industries Active Shooter Response Plate Carrier

Looking for a little black one? Better not. Because this is the answer from EAGLE INDUSTRIES to a special threat, to mass shooters. The Active Shooter Response Plate Carrier can be kept ready and put on in case of emergency to protect oneself.

This is it from the front and at the magazine insertion, you can see that this was not the original function. In fact, it is a stripped-down version of the "JPC" from EAGLE, the Tactical Ultra Low-Vis Plate Carrier. From the front, there is not much difference to be seen either. Magazines always go along.

The shoulders are very similar to those on the JPC from Crye…

…but EAGLE uses a different, thicker material that resembles more of a rubberized inflatable boat and has hexagonal patterns as cutouts to make everything lighter and airier.

Velcro on the chest and loops for PTTs and similar stuff. EAGLE is very generous with that.

The thing for magazines is self-explanatory, Triple M4 MOLLE Front Flap – and can also be bought separately.

It is also not fixed there, but can be unhooked. The Plate Carrier could also be used without the belly load. Or even with completely different ones.

The side closure is a strap, no additional equipment is intended to be taken along.

Close over the head and clip closed, and the ballistic protection against attackers is done.

The back has Velcro and nothing else. In the military version, the cummerbund is integrated here, more MOLLE, and two zippers for a storm pack that can be added. So a big difference at the back.

Unless there is an active shooter situation, you can also use the Active Shooter Response Plate Carrier ideally as a sports carrier to make life difficult and entertain yourself at the same time. We have the training plates from md-textil in here - check out the review HERE.

CONCLUSION: Small and fine, a solid plate carrier from EAGLE in JPC format, broken down here for urban use as an emergency carrier.

The Eagle Industries Active Shooter Response Plate Carrier is available for $135 from the manufacturer or any dealers carrying Eagle Industries products.
