    Hi guys, just a quick question..

    I own an older Warrior RICAS Command vest and was considering getting the RICAS Compact.
    The orig RICAS is incredibly adjustable and fits my larger sizing (6'2"/110kg) but fear the Compact may not have the same adjustment.

    Anyone here own or tried both types or offer any experience with regard to sizing.
    Thanks

    I don't know about the older ricas but I did own a compact a while back and I found despite adjusting it, it always sat very high on the body ( think chest rig kinda height) so I got rid of it and got a global armour plate carrier which offers better coverage.
    Hope this helps :)

    Have you considered a warrior 901 chest rig and back panel?

    Naah, I like the RICAS but was just interested in the lighter/tighter compact version. I am not a mad fan of the chest rigs but can see their advantages.
    Thanks for the help tho.
