Shellback Tactical Skirmish Plate Carrier
The Shellback Tactical Skirmish Plate Carrier is the ideal protective vest for your tactical needs.
- DURABLE - Built with durable yet lightweight 500 Denier Nylon, the Skirmish Plate Carrier comfortably holds 10 x 12 shooter or SAPI cut ballistic plates to shield against high-impact rounds.
- ADJUSTABLE CUMMERBUND - The adjustable cummerbund accepts soft armor inserts for side protection, allowing you to customize the level of protection to your needs.
- LOW-PROFILE DESIGN - Despite its protective capabilities, the Skirmish Plate Carrier maintains a low-profile design for unencumbered mobility. Weighing only 1.9 pounds when empty, you'll barely notice the vest is there, allowing you to operate at peak performance.

- VERSATILE FEATURES - The PALS webbing on the front, rear, and cummerbund let you outfit the Skirmish Plate Carrier with the MOLLE pouches you need for your mission. Additional features like a front kangaroo pouch to hold magazine inserts, a rear drag handle, and heavy-duty bar tacking at stress points demonstrate the vest's practical, hard-use design.

Shellback Skirmish Plate Carrier - Specs
The vest is made of a strong material called 500 Denier Nylon. It can hold plates that are 10x12 inches big. There are pockets on the side for soft armor, like 13.75x5.5 inches. It is light and has 3D padding on the front, back, and shoulders for comfort. The sides have straps to attach pouches, and there's a pouch in front for magazines or other items. There's also a handle at the back if you need to pull it off quickly, plus adjustable straps so it fits most people well. Heavy-duty stitches reinforce the important parts of the vest for extra durability. With the PALS webbing and adjustable cummerbund, you can customize it to suit your needs. All these features make it a great option for anyone who needs protection.
This vest has four main points: durability, comfort, versatility, and mobility.
1. Durability – The 500 Denier Nylon material and heavy-duty stitching can withstand any situation.
2. Comfort – The 3D spacer mesh padding on the front, rear, and shoulder pads makes it comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.
3. Versatility– With adjustable straps and cummerbund, you can customize it to fit your body size perfectly and add pouches via the PALS webbing for extra convenience.
4. Mobility – Its low profile design ensures you don't get weighed down while also providing maximum protection from bullets or other projectiles.

Ballistic and Bulletproof Products:
- Most companies will not accept any returns on ballistic or bulletproof items. We offer recertification as a courtesy.
- Must be within 30 days of package delivery.
- No need to purchase a shipping label! Atomic Defense will give you a pre-paid one.
- A re-certification cost of 20% applies to returns of ballistic and bulletproof products.
- The 20% recertification covers the cost of ensuring the armor is safe. Usually starting with X-Raying the armor for cracks underneath the coating, inspection for damage, and water damage testing. Without this 20%, we would not be able to offer returns on armor.
- There is no way for us to know how or if it was used once shipped, and we have to consider them unsafe until retested, inspected and certified.
- Exchanges and non-ballistic products do not have a re-certification cost.
