NTOA recommended

After a month-long trial with the National Tactical Officer's Association, TacPlates earned a 4.47/5 rating, and a strong endorsement from NTOA members:

"-after wearing them for a few days I could not believe how comfortable the system was."
-NTOA Tester, CT Apr 2011

"-As an added benefit, the TacPlates provided a very stiff platform for the gun holster. My gun presentation was noticeably smoother with the reduction in the belt movement.
