Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the T.REX AC-0 plate carrier comfortable and suitable for concealment?

The AC-0 features a slick, single-layer poly-elastic cummerbund that hugs the body tightly, minimizing bulk. Its unpadded shoulder straps and Twee material interior further reduce size, making it ideal for wearing under clothing like jackets or hoodies for discreet carry.

How does the T.REX AC-0 handle different plate sizes and adjustments?

The AC-0 offers a generous field of hook and loop velcro inside the plate pocket. This allows users to extend the flap deep into the carrier, securing plates of various sizes, including smaller ones, all the way to the top to eliminate any unwanted slop or movement.

What are the front attachment options on the T.REX AC-0 plate carrier?

The front of the AC-0 is intentionally slick with no ID panel or traditional MOLLE. Instead, it features a single row of sideways MOLLE webbing designed for attaching specific placards, such as the T.REX Molly Flat Placard or 5.56 Placard, in a low-profile manner.

Can I attach standard MOLLE pouches or Crye Precision placards to the AC-0?

While the AC-0 has a row of MOLLE-compatible webbing, it's designed for specific slick placards. Standard MOLLE pouches are not the primary intended use. Crye Precision placards can be attached, but due to proprietary spacing, they may bunch slightly in the middle.
