What is MOLLE?
MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) is the method of connecting pouches to the rows of heavy-duty nylon you see on the carrier. The rows of nylon webbing you see are referred to as PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System). You can move MOLLE pouches to any PALS row area on the carrier.

FAQ

Absolutely! At Uprise Armory LLC, we take pride in offering quality products and a transparent buying experience. Each kit comes with a clear description of what's included, so you know exactly what you're getting. We source armor only from highly reputable, verified brands. If you have any questions before ordering, our team is always happy to help!


It happens! Just reach out to our customer service team, and we'll be happy to help. 

We always state lead times at the beginning of each product description. We're always available if you have questions about your order, and we often send updates as soon as we have them.  

We're working hard to reduce lead times, but demand for tactical gear and armor fluctuates wildly month to month, and it's hard to balance. Right now, we receive batches based on each supplier's monthly demand. 

All of our tactical gear comes with a 3-year warranty; however, we often replace things even outside the warranty. Just reach out!

Our armor has an incident-replacement guarantee If you get shot in the armor and need a new set, we'll replace it for free! We have replaced several plate carriers used by law enforcement due to getting shot in the line of duty.

We hope you'll never need it but if you do, you'll be glad you went with us!
