BULLETPROOF VESTS

Fits the Osprey Talon 22 snugly side to side. The bags hydration pocket is another inch taller so it would not be bad if the armor was 18″. The armor is light, thin, flexible and no one notices it being there. Hope to never need it.

I purchased my vest because I hunt and I am concerned about being safe in these troubling times. I feel safer with a quality vest like Ace Link. I took a while but I but what believe is great body armor.

I am a US Marine machine gunner in 29 Palms. This is my first review for anything honestly but that just tells you how much credit I want to give AceLink! I got my XL Quadrelease plate carrier and it was slightly too big so I emailed customer support and the next day had all the info to exchange the product for the Large. Very fast! I then called customer support to see the status and ended up talking to a person right away not a robot. He was very helpful and truly listened to my suggestions and is the reason I’m writing this review. Prior to sending the vest back to exchange it, I wanted to test it slightly. I put a full combat load on it (steel core body armor, 3 dual magazine pouches, 6 fully loaded 5.56 mags, an admin pouch, a green star cluster, an ifak, mag dump pouch, hydration pouch w/ 3 liters of water in a camelback, and a radio) and when I tell you this thing is comfortable, it’s an understatement! I did a little jog around my property and damn it was just hugging my body like a clingy girlfriend. The material is very light but extremely sturdy, stitching was beautiful (no frays in the stitching) and the release latches had a nice audible *click* to them that let you know it’s secure. Can’t wait to use and abuse this product. Suggestions for product to AceLink: -Make the Quick Release clips replaceable, instead of sewing the loop that locks the clips in, have a Velcro strap that through the release hole and up onto the shoulder strap under the shoulder pads. To insure it doesn’t lift back up (then offer a repair kit to do a quick fix in the field). Everything wears down eventually! -Continue making a great product!

Not only was the customer service Class-A with them going above and beyond to address my initial concerns, but with my second order they included two branded vest swag strips. If you think you need a small, go with a medium. I'm wearing the armor now with the concealable shirt and it's breathable and comfortable. The plates were a bit of a pain to install into the shirt but once they're in you're not gonna have to worry about them coming loose. Cheers!

I purchased this Live wire carrier vest to use with my safelife defense panels. The only issue is that I don’t like the side opening options safelife had for their vests. When I saw a co-worker wearing this particular vest I knew it was better than the one I had. I decided to purchase this vest carrier and hands down it’s the best carrier I’ve ever owned. If you have safelife defense panels and if you’re interested in upgrading to this vest carrier I recommend buying one size up (my panels are size XL regular so I bought a 2XL carrier and it fit).
