Well, it seems that it's in development...
Not perfectly replicated, but close enough so that you get the idea.



Shame that there are currently no plans of a multicam version of that (GRAW, here I come!), but coyote brown is on the maker's to-do list.

More importantly a shotgun sheath

Shoulder pads are cool, il be up for one of them im MC when/if they come along

Whats so different about the Crye AC than all the other plate carriers out there?

[Cedric MacKay]

So who makes it an where did you get it?

[rolling-thunder]

I wonder if they will do it in fatty size?I don't think it would be the same in C/B with Multicam,i'd much rather have a Multicam version to go with the Multicam load out?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I'm not entirely sure who makes it, but it popped up in the newsletter of a german shop.
Price and date of release are not sure yet though. Perhaps the germans get these stuff from the chinese, who knows...
All I know is, that it should be available in 2 patterns not used in the military anywhere, OD and coyote.

But I really hope for a multicam version. But chances are slim I think.

Coyote brown CRYE chasis... My luck is finally turning around.

[dynamic_e]

Krukspec has had multicam crye chassis for a while. Check em out at krukspec.com

btw, i have no affiliation with them, but I do own aset of kruk bdus

Wish I could, but they seem to have exceeded their monthly bandwidth.

Jesus...
If spread the gossip, spread all...
First of all, our company is making this plate carrier, thats right! But it won be a crye replica! Although its shape is inspired by the GRAW PCs, its not a replica!

Second, it will be part of the "BE-X Series", our own production line, and will be available, if released, in Tan, OD and our own camo patterns "Rooivalk" and "Rooikat". Special orders in MARPAT and ARPAT might be possiple in considerable quantities.

Actual State:

Plate Carrier "Lorica"

Images shows the PC in its actual form.

There are a lot of changes ahead:

• Pull-the-Dots will be exchanged with Velcro/Straps
• Loops adopted for MOLLE combatibillity
• Colors are not final

Webbing System "ARGUS"

MOLLE Belt, ergonomic formed, with suspenders.

OMG! . Im SO getting that.

Sorry, I didn't mean to tease, but I didn't know where I put that news thingie.
Nice one to say at least. Grimm, do you know when these things will be available?

Multicam versions available if someone orders a considerable amount?

[rolling-thunder]

Grimm how can you not release this chassis in ACU/Acupat?I'm very interested in it especially after seeing what it looks like in C/B tan!

[Grimm]

Our problem right now is, that these Items wont be made in Asia! Those will be made in Europe! So they wont be cheap. And the hardcore-reenactors wont buy anything, that isnt "military proofed".
Also, we have only acces to NyCo MARPAT and ARPAt (but this is original, not replica Material, see http://jordheim.info/gallery/Samples/100_1362(Medium).JPG )

It will take some time, we, BEGADI, are a 4-man team, we have other things to attend to, but I hope, that at least the Argus Webbing will hit the shop in OD within 2 month!

We have a lot in our sleeves, for example the new italian "vegetata" camo, but it takes time. Also the community is still unwilling to trust, that a former low-budget-retailer now makes gear that fits up to realsteel conditions...

There will always be a market for quality.
I'm getting this thing no matter what and will write a review on it.

[LeeC]

not sure i like the purple straps on the "ARGUS"

the "Lorica" on the other hand looks very cool

"Rooivalk" and "Rooikat"? Not seen these patterns before got a sample

[PariahWolf]

They're dark brown mate, your monitor must be funny.

[msx361]

I cant see why you wouldn't make one in MC, you do realize the airsoft community is crying out for GRAW PC in mc don't you? You could make a killing!

If we made a petition and got a 1000 ppl interested would you do it?

[sturgis]

Cool stuff
good that the buttons are beeing replaced by buckles/straps, it's the only thing that looked rather questionable in the CB/tan rig.

and how about some good old fashioned woodland version?

"Rooivalk" and "Rooikat"? Not seen these patterns before got a sample

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I'm thinking the first picture is one of the two mentioned patterns?

"I cant see why you wouldn't make one in MC

maybe it's because crye is cracking down on replica MC? I'm sure using real MC would bump the price quite abit.

Mhee, get on to china they will sort it out

[Grimm]

OK, step by step:

@ MHE: Willing to "betatest" the vest in tan? Austria ist that far away from me, so as im ready with noting changes for our tailor and doing photos, Ill contact you!

About Rooivalk/Rooikat:
Thread here http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/inde...75957&hl=Begadi
Homepage here http://www.spezialausruestung.de/deutsch/ (english still work in progress). Will also come in Tan/khaki: http://jordheim.info/gallery/MilSim/grimm2_2%20(Small).jpg

All colors are subject to change. Material will be military grade cordura in forementioned colors and od straps in military grade quality! Also the design also will change a bit, for example the suspenders or the number of MOLLE Loops.
For our tailor, each sample is a lot of work, so I wont push him, to use expensive material, as long as it is only for design studies.
