northernairsofter Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hello all, i have been looking for a new PC for a while now , and would like something in Multicam that is sufficiently gucci and wonderful. Sadly ,i really cannot afford a real deal vest from Crye Precision , and so i started to look at the clones. The most popular one i found at the minute was the TMC JPC , which is shown here... http://www.ebairsoft.com/skirmich-jumper-plate-carrier-multicam-p-5986.html It seems well made and it is very affordable , and that is what the reviews that i have seen echo. However , most of these are from 12 yr olds reviewing it on the first day they get it , which is not great. I hear that Flyye industries are also making a copy which may be worht the wait however. Any thoughts from you guys would be much appreciated. Thanks, Northern Airsofter Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I've got one, and I absolutely love mine. I've been through an awful lot of rigs trying to find the right one, and the JPC fits my needs perfectly - The TMC copy is also very decent quality. I've ran mine in around 10 or more games now, and it's holding up absolutely fine - No major damage, no rips or tears, no loose stitching. There's the odd thread poking out, but nothing structural and the rig is nowhere close to a major failure. For the money you pay, it's fantastic - Light, comfortable, awesome looking and very well made for the price. All I will say is that the included fake plates are awful; They're thin plastic mouldings and they're quite stiff. I've kept the one in the back for rigidity, and replaced the front plate with thick foam from a G&P AEG box, and it fits me like a glove now and it's comfortable enough for any conditions I've thrown at it.

Shardik Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I cant speak for the JPC but I've used and abused a TMC 6094 replica for over a year now. I've literally dragged this through hell and back...it's still going strong with no sign of wear and tear. I would count on the quality being at least as good. Link to post Share on other sites
northernairsofter Posted July 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Thanks guys ! any chance you could post up photos of your respective PC's so i can have a look at the wear? are they really shiney ? one review said they needed a dusting of krylon.... Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Mine isn't, but it's in ATACSFG as opposed to Multicam - I'll get some detail shots of it tonight! Link to post Share on other sites

akiraspeedstar Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I'm a fan of Flyye products, though after seeing their Taco pouches I'm not as sure of how the JPC will look. Link to post Share on other sites
Shardik Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Mines Khaki and is not shiny at all. Though it is brighter than some other brands I guess. Khaki tends to be over CB/Tan though. Link to post Share on other sites
thatguy404 Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Mines ranger green, and teammate runs a black one. Both have been abused and cant fault it. Doesn't get used in summer, couple of pics of mine are in the plate carrier thread Link to post Share on other sites
hawaiianjuggernaut Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 I have the TMC JPC. Its actually pretty nice After a few weeks of use, there are no major spots where the threading is coming undone (like *cough* CONDOR *cough*) Its nice and light, I suggest putting in some replica SAPIs or just cardboard if you are cheap like me Link to post Share on other sites
northernairsofter Posted July 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Ive got some excellent quality cardboard plates in my PC atm might order one soon ! whats the wait time from ebairsoft again? Link to post Share on other sites
druid799 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 The TMC multicam is a 'wee' bit darker than most other makes of MC but not realy stand out noticeable , one think I did note was it goes realy well with MTP . Link to post Share on other sites
hawaiianjuggernaut Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Got mine in Khaki Link to post Share on other sites
emergencychimp Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 I have the tmc JPC in multicam and think it's awesome. 1 of the shoulder straps is showing a little wear after about 5 games but nothing I am concerned about. Trojan tactical have a crye JPC for £250 (which to me is more than I can afford) but it isn't as expensive as lots of other real plate carriers. Link to post Share on other sites
Raven 6 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I've own several TMC gear and I can vouch for it's reliability. Actually... most of my team used an old gen RRV + hawg back plate a few years ago (for a whole year at least) and not once did one ever ripped or lost it's stitches. Then we all switched to TMC's 6094 in MJK (we had at least 8 or 10 in the team at some point) and they performed flawlessly for another year and we ran them through a lot. Just recently we switched to TMC stuff in multicam, APC's JPC's and what not and the quality has improved a LOT. My APC is quite awesome, actually better and cheaper than TMC's 6094. Very nice stitches and all... I can't really speak about the MC colour and hue, but it looks decent (as in, not purple like some china made gear). Here's a pic of my APC under "realistic" lighting conditions (flash bounced on white ceiling). (that black thing is a home made kangaroo pouch which is actually hidden when mags are placed in it) Link to post Share on other sites

TheCaptainAlmighty Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 From when Flyye released prototype photos of their JPC, it was disappointing. It just looks bad. But it is a prototype, so there is always hope. Then again, four integrated mag pouches, and 4 rows on the cummerbund? No. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=604074072948310&set=a.218341691521552.56125.218075104881544&type=3&theater ToySoldier is apparently coming out with a replica, but for $200, and might as well get the Crye, if you're already paying for most of it.

Shardik Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 That replica looks shocking. Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmypie Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 One thing to note, I'm pretty sure all the copy's are L/XL , so the plate bag is bigger. Link to post Share on other sites
akiraspeedstar Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Says in the comments from Flyye that they're reverting the design back to replicate the original JPC Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptainAlmighty Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Yep. https://www.facebook.com/flyyethailand?hc_location=timeline They're going back to how it should be. The other was apparently the XL size, so they added a new row on the cummerbund, and an extra mag pouch. Link to post Share on other sites
hawaiianjuggernaut Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Yeah heard about the Flyye one. The Facebook feedback was so strong, they reverted back to a smaller version. Link to post Share on other sites
northernairsofter Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Hi again all, After waiting patiently for Ebairsoft to get the Multicam JPC's back in stock with no luck , i have decided to try and look elsewhere before Christmas. Found the item on this site for a good price - http://www.antoutdoors.com/index.php/all-products-1/tmc-new-style-jpc-vest-multicam.html thanks Anyone know anything/have any experiences with this store ? is it reputable ? and is it HK based ? Failing that , it seems the Atacs FG ones are readily available. How well will they mix with multicam bdu's? thanks, Northernairsofter Link to post Share on other sites
northernairsofter Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Anyone also have any opinions on "shootercbgear" and "Reload gears" as retailers ? they also have them ! Link to post Share on other sites
