can be mounted both horizontally and
vertically for easier reach) and small
zippered cargo/utility pocket
Of course, Guardian is fully compa-
tible with MOLLE so you can attach
whatever pouch you want. Some of the
accessories are still not available for pur-
chase but we can be more than sure that
soon some new additions will appear.

te Bags, Cummerbund and Triple Mag
Flap) with 149.99 EUR MSRP and Law
Enforcement Kit (Plate Bags, Cumm-
berbund, Kangaroo Flap with additional
inserts) with 199.99 EUR MSRP.
Guardian Plate Carriers are available

colors. There are solid Black, Navy Blue
(LE), Olive Green and Coyote Brown and
Multicam, Multicam Black and wz. 93
Pantera Polish Woodland camouflage pat-
terns (for camouflage patterns are extra).
So far, we have only a limited chance
to use Guardian Plate Carrier but first
impressions are positive – it is comfor-
table, has an easy-to-use adjustment
system, and the craftsmanship is good.
How it will be in serial models - time will
tell. The hardware looks quite solid, but
it is definitely inferior in this respect to
the top-price PCs made of lightweight
laminate fabrics. But let's remember
that it is also inferior to them in price.
In any case - from the first glance
one can assess Guardian as a nice and
reasonably designed plate carrier with
some interesting accessories (bac-
kpack, admin, dangler, horizontal dual
mag pouch, and some „ordinary" ones.
