Description
NTOA Rating 4.6 out of 5!
Convert plate carriers with cummerbunds to a quiet, fast quick-release under the front flap. This kit uses GT polymer buckles (by AustriAlpin, of COBRA® heritage) rated to a 500-lb crush load, delivering durable retention with minimal weight. Install the male MOLLE side on the outer cummerbund, route the female hook side under the front flap, and stop battling loud hook-and-loop. Sold as a pair (left + right). Note: 5.11 TacTec vests have double-hook under the flap—convert to double-loop (adhesive Velcro strips) for proper mating. Colors: Black, Ranger Green, Coyote Brown, Multicam, Multicam Black, Wolf Gray.
Key Highlights
- GT polymer QR buckles; ~500-lb crush rating (metal version is ~2023-lb, sold separately).
- Under-flap pull tab for fast don/doff; MOLLE male side mounts to cummerbund.
- Pair included (left + right) per kit.
NOTE: Conversion Kits are sold as shown on the pictures. One dual buckle system for the left side and one dual buckle system for the right side. You get both sides (left and right) with the purchase. There have been many questions about this. This should help clear up the confusion!
Converting your vest is easy in three simple steps:
1. Fold the hook part of your cummerbund (where it would normally attach under your front flap) backwards to the molle panel that has no hook material.
2. Attach the QR male molle portion through the molle panel.
3. Lift your flap on the front of your vest and attach the QR female hook portion (placed and spaced as desired) to your loop material portion of your vest.
(Some vests may require a small piece of double sided hook and loop to keep the folded portion against your vest or a zip tie...you'll figure it out.)
