Something I'll never forget from Halo Reach, the description of the leg-mounted medkit. "REMEMBER: This is YOURS, for when YOU get hit."

[Simpleman]

Hey guys, I really appreciated the section on tourniquets. It’s so important to know how to apply a tourniquet but also having a working tourniquet to actually saves lives. Saving lives with your plate carrier is the whole point. Good stuff Kaya and Clint!

[natural_born_killer]

Could you guys please do more reviews on plate carriers and plates and stuff like that. This content is very interesting

[davidgaines]

Would like to see a "prequel" showing base models, different types, brands, prices etc. For noobs.

“Some people in Ukraine thought the same thing” absolutely one of the coldest lines of 2023 so far and I’m here for it

[cjshreenan]

I bought a tourneguit from Amazon and all this time didn't know to check for the CAT writing u guys just saved me from finding out the hard way if it came down to me using it on myself or somebody else defiantly checking out other options now

[deadletter]

Who’s the little boy… Oh, it’s Clint without a hat.

[ericfast]

Clint, maybe don't interrupt your guest so much when he's talking and explaining things. Let him talk.

As a corpsman turned civ in 2020, something I’ll always remember my guys said to me….if you won’t be out for long. Essentials only. If you don’t know, be thoughtful on what you might need. Cause the end of the day, ounces=pounds and pounds=pain.

[RunningWithSauce]

I always recommend that outside your own med kit, keep a separate TQ accessible to yourself, many many reasons. Self TQ could save your life if you're separated from your team/alone for whatever reason. And yes, stage it for one handed deployment.

I’d love a build list of those plate carriers!

[tydavis]

Definitely one of the best so far very informative & very enjoyable.

Cliff: **pulls out the skeletac plate carrier**
Kaya: "That subtle off-white coloring, the tasteful thickness of it... Oh my God"

I was a Marine too. Have a Spartan carrier. Noticed that the small arms protection is different from what I had when I was in, we had the point blank flak jacket with more realestate on them. But these new ones are far and away more comfortable.

[JonathanCrane]

I work for 5.11, and some of the "know it alls" that come in my store about make me fall out laughing sometimes, especially when they try to sound born again hard in front of the girlfriend or wife. Glad you guys got the real deal!

My favorite plate carrier is the defense mechanisms and honestly for the price you can’t go wrong with the light weight level iv shellback plates

[paulbritt]

This has been my mission for 2023 to build and test a plate carrier for myself. I’m thinking level 4 metal plates because I live in a rural area so I’m far more likely to get shot at by a larger caliber so the extra weight and protection will be worth it

[thomasgomer]

"Those level 4 plates?" Gold.

Bring back Alek. Even if it’s just a guest appearance

Only issue I have with a setup like this is the price. And I know what your going to say. How do you put a price on your life. And I believe they take advantage of that because it cost so much to get a good setup. Including myself I have 5 people in my family and to fit everyone with armor it would be thousands of dollars. So yes I would love to see CF do more body armor giveaways
