The most noticeable change, is the absence of the integrated triple ammo “kangaroo” pouch featured on the original JPC. Let’s start with the front plate bag, this being the prime real estate. The unintended consequence being that these updates have made the original JPC somewhat of a black sheep in a catalogue of products that are designed to work together, hence the need for a revised version of this otherwise fantastic carrier.Īlthough the JPC 2.0 doesn’t change much from it’s predecessor in overall profile, and indeed looks superficially the same once loaded up, there are enough differences from the original JPC to make this worth paying the extra for.
There’s still a place for the original JPC, but over the years Crye have introduced new features to other, more recent lines. So why did Crye revisit their original design instead of creating a whole new carrier? Well, the answer is that I don’t know… But I’d hazard a guess that it’s due to the fact that the original JPC works very well, with the changes made to the new carrier can be considered tweaks as opposed to a full overhaul… More of a modernised option than successor. Improvise/Adapt/Overcome might be a great methodology for a quick fix, but in general it’s best to have the right gear for the job, not “stick that on with duct tape and zip ties, that’ll do pig, thank you very much”.
#Crye multicam black how to
Crye’s JPC (Jumpable Plate Carrier) has for quite some time been used as the benchmark of how to make a lightweight and highly mobile plate carrier, whilst its not a one size fits all solution built for everyone’s needs, it has become a common sight on those who often have the pick of the litter when it comes to tactical gear.īut it is a universal truth that nothing lasts forever, not even with a carrier as good as the JPC.
