T.REX AC1
Sizing Chart | Setup Video | What’s Included | Specs | Pictures | FAQ
The AC1 is a minimalist plate carrier that has the ability to scale to an individual’s needs. It comes ready to roll out of the box in its slick configuration with an elastic cummerbund and low-profile shoulder pads. The AC1 also comes with two ITW QASM buckles for attaching most standard placards and some chest rigs.
Consider adding a shingle or a placard to carry more equipment or magazines. The T.REX Shingle does an excellent job of keeping the carrier slick while providing magazine-carrying capability when needed. The T.REX Placard isn’t quite as low-profile but provides better mag retention and easier loading/re-indexing of magazines.

SPECS
Sizing for plate carriers is based on the size of your plates, not your body. (It is the plates that should be based on the size of your body.) To choose the correct plate carrier size, use the sizing chart and watch the setup video above.
All cummerbunds are the same length and height and should work for the vast majority of individuals. However, if you’re worried about being too small or too large to wear a plate carrier, measure your torso circumference (the solar plexus is a good location from which to measure) and consult the following data:
| Min. Torso Cir. | Max. Torso Cir. | |
| Small AC1 | 30″ | 56″ |
| Medium AC1 | 32″ | 58″ |
| Large AC1 | 34″ | 60″ |
Each cummerbund is 4″ high and has six pouches total: Two 2.5″ pouches; Two 3″ pouches; Two 4″ pouches.
Made in the USA.
