The new Banshee QD plate carrier from Shellback Tactical is now in-stock and shipping in all colors. The standard Banshee Rifle Plate Carrier is already a huge hit. The main difference with the new design is the QD (Quick Deployment) function. Instead of using a more traditional cummerbund that has PALS webbing on the inside allowing the use of side plates, etc. the new cummerbund is a hybrid of sorts that is padded on the inside for comfort, has quick release buckles and features PALS on the outside only. This is a great option for those who do not need side plate carrying capabilities. I’ve always felt using the cummerbund was much more comfortable than using just the side qd nylon straps but the cummerbund was velcro which can be noisy and difficult to align. Now you have the best of both worlds. One other difference is that on the MultiCam model they will be using MultiCam webbing now too. Check out the pics and details below.
The BANSHEE QD (Quick Deployment) plate carrier is an advanced professional/operator grade plate carrier that takes the Banshee to another level of comfort and performance. BANSHEE QD is the second version of the Banshee family of plate carriers. Made to accommodate those that do not need a full traditional cummerbund but still want the ability to run front and back rifle plates. Ideal for Law Enforcement, Military, and Sniper operations. This BANSHEE QD plate carrier is Ultra lightweight, low profile, and has great load carrying capacity. Designed for protection, utility, mobility in a compact lightweight design. One major difference with the BANSHEE QD plate carrier is the cummerbund which now is a hybrid type.
The hybrid cummerbund was designed with comfort and mobility in mind, and made with advanced materials. This new cummerbund comes standard in the Banshee QD, runs through the carrier, and is fully adjustable (one size fits most). It is low profile and the interior of the cummerbund is padded and on the exterior has 2 rows of PALS webbing. This cummerbund attaches on both sides to the front of the plate carrier with 2 quick release buckles. Super-fast Don and Doff capabilities, say good bye to the sound of Hook/Loop ripping open. Upgrade and try the Banshee QD You will not be disappointed.
