ACCESS-
ORIES
The Gurdian Plate Carrier is fully com-
patible with MOLLE but it also comes
with its own suite of pouches, pockets
and accessories.
Let's start with Guardian Smallpack.
This 7.5 liter pack may be used as fixed
to back panel, stand-alone pack or con-
nected to older product which was ava-
ilable for some time, the Guardian Chest
Rig. Pack features a main compartment
with a U-shaped ¾ length zipper. The
rear of the pack is stiffened with a re-
movable insert. Outside it is almost flat,
except for the four MOLLE attachment
access. To close the cummerbund you
just need to pull up the bottom part of
the front panel. Simple as it is, but a bit
cumbersome, especially with a loaded rig.
The QR variant has a similar build, ex-
cept the front part was split in two-part
pieces connected with 2M ROC buckle.
This cummerbund is way faster than
the standard one and you don't need to
remove magazines from the kit.
Both cummerbunds are available in
Medium and Large sizes and might be
used to retrofit other plate carriers.
CUMMER-
BUNDS
Guardian Plate Carrier can be configu-
red with one of two available cummer-
bunds – QR and non-QR. The non-QR
is standard cummerbund consisting of
left and right "wing" made from MOLLE
webbing and mesh for increased air
flow. The inner layer features the Hypa-
lon fabric which improves the rigidity
of the cummerbunds, especially under
load. Both parts are attached to the rear
and front panel of the plate carrier with
Velcro loop and feature elastic parts for
increased mobility. In the front, there
are small Hypalon pull tabs for quicker
