I got a set of Shellback IV ceramic/UHMWPE plates and a banshee 2.0 carrier. I weigh 150 lbs, and had to do a LOT of surgery on the carrier straps to get it to fit me (basically cut off the QD buckles and sewed the straps together on the top). Unless you're a big (in girth) person, the deluxe cummberbund will be too big. I found that by ordering the regular cummerbund and adding side plates, it fit my frame perfectly when the back was laced tightly together with shock cord. After getting a PASGT helmet, I found that the MCH cut feels a LOT better. YMMV, but I suggest trying one on before ordering.

The shellback ceramic/PE hybrid plates are level IV rated and surprisingly light. The Banshee II is comfortable, but is big for smaller folks.
