      Not a copy buddy. Can you Find the exact same thing on the market? Or are you just slinging shit for the sake of it?

      By the way Is the mayflower a copy of the tt vest or is the tt vest a copy of the SOE rig or is the SOE or are they all based on Rhodesian or chicom ak rigs from decades ago. All the same concept. It’s not rocket science.

    Also a good copy of the Mayflower chest rig, with the mesh being the only obvious improvement.

    Mesh is a massive improvement over cordura. May buy one, depending on cost and hydro carrier compatability.

    Seriously how can Platatac have any credibility in the market place? They are a Global joke.. copying gear, taking off tags and replacing them with their own, winning tenders because the product was meant to be made in Australia but it isn’t… its only a matter of time before this company is investigated and shut down.

      No cred you have not got your information correct.

      “winning tenders because the product was meant to be made in Australia but it isn’t”

      If you are referring to the AMCP Tender, you are wrong, that tender has not even been finalised yet.

      Or maybe because it sort of resembles the SKS clip holding chest rigs used by the Chinese and the Vietnamese during the 60s.
