Great for side plates meh for the rest
I have the side buckets together with the sidecaps.
They are a great way to comfortably mount side plates independent of their thickness (I got1.1 inch thick lvl 4 side plates in 6x6) and it is cool to have the option to use larger side plates.
I tried softarmor panels I had laying around that fit okay, but my issue here is that the width of the potential side armor can not cover plate to plate even with the Shaw Specific inserts.
The other issue is that if I put the sideplate up to the front plate the potential space in the bucket for other gear is out of my reach and if I put a e.g. magazine sized object in the front the side plate moves further back then I would like.
For radios I am afraid that the radio could overheat.
I think I would prefer the side buckets to not have individual padding built in but rather a loop field like the Cumberbund (I got the s-lok 5 inch wide) so I can still use my stratus pads.
