Lightweight Low-Profile Plate Carrier for Tactical, Training & Emergency Preparedness
The Regicide Plate Carrier is engineered for users who demand a lightweight, low-profile platform without sacrificing versatility. Whether you're training, working in security, preparing emergency gear, or building a scalable tactical loadout, the Regicide delivers outstanding comfort, mobility, and modularity.
Designed around a streamlined profile, the Regicide features innovative Shapeshift Tabs that help the carrier conform naturally around your armor plates while also providing convenient routing for hydration tubes and communication cables. The result is a secure, comfortable fit that moves with you during extended wear.
The carrier offers two methods for attaching front pouches and placards. Lightweight placards can be mounted directly using the integrated loop slits, while heavier loadouts are supported by the durable Hypalon Micro Harness system. The included pontoon pads improve airflow and comfort by creating ventilation channels between the carrier and your body.
An integrated four-cell elastic cummerbund provides quick access to magazines, radios, medical supplies, and other mission-essential equipment while maintaining a streamlined profile. Constructed with 4-inch elastic and reinforced with a centered 1-inch elastic section, the cummerbund offers flexibility without sacrificing retention.
Compatible with most 10 x 12 inch armor plates, as well as Small, Medium, and Large SAPI plates, the Regicide is an excellent choice for professional users, preparedness-minded civilians, training, and emergency response applications.
