This one looks great except for the shoulder straps, which are not in Multicam fabric.

 

Does anyone have any experience with this?

 

I realize the price exceeds that of a lot of "real" gear.

There's also a TMC made copy - link

Is that a copy of the CAGE or the CPC?

Both are CAGEs.

 

I was considering the Solidfox before buying my CPC, but then I saw the shoulder straps and the folded-cordura "webbing.

What do you mean by folded cordura webbing?

 

I was thinking of replacing the platebags with Crye.

 

On the other hand, the Solidfox copy in anything other than Multicam can be had for around $400 instead of close to $600. I might go for MJK Solidfox and put on some Multicam plate bags. I'm just wondering if the Solidfox is well made and/or comfortable.

The PALS webbing isn't multicam printed webbing. It's Cordura folded over like Condor.

I see, you are definitely correct.

for that price you can get a used CPC if you keep your eyes open

Yeah at this point I'm also leaning toward CPC for this kind of dough. It's either that or an LBT Slick + 1961 setup.

 

A replica CAGE without any if the fitted soft armor does not seem like it would hold its value.

If you have the funds go with the CPC istead of the Slick+Rig Combo!

Meh, I think I'll hold out for the real deal. Their MultiCam will undoubtedly be wrong. Maybe in Digital Desert, but I don't plan on going down the NSW/AOR route.

 

A real CAGE I could never justify. A CPC, maybe a few months of thinking and I can justify it.
