that allows the user to attach a variety of AVS™ components.

used in conjunction with any of our AVS™ plate bags to form a
modular vest with a padded neck and shoulder area. It can also be
used as a comfortable load-bearing means of adding support for
any of our belts. Made in the US from US materials.

BODY ARMORIt is against Federal Law for a person

no felony convictions, (ii) you have not

orders of body armor be accompanied by
a government issued photo identification.
