[QUOTE="Agent2, post: 83203, member: 17"] I hate the hassle of putting on the protector, then the pack. Plus the pack straps bother me, especially if the pack is heavy. So I decided to homebuild my own vest. The backpack is permanently attached to the back, couple of army surplus pouches attached to the front. Works great, and as long as the weight is distributed more or less evenly between front and back, the protector doesn't "pull back" like a backpack. Some of you might say the front pouches might be a problem in a faceplant, but I don't see any difference between that and a flight vest. Along those lines of thinking, wearing a backpack on top of a protector should be a no no as well. To each their own.
