Axl
4.8
(24)
"I think axl equinox is compatible with the jpc. It's a great cummerbund."
"This or the AXL Equinox is way to go IMO."
"The best structural cummerbund is the Axl equinox cummerbund."
"Axl equinox cummerbunds"
"Axl equinox cummerbunds"
"AXL equinox"
"Axl equinox cummerbund"
"I run the Equinox cummerbund from AXL on my JPC 2.0 and I'm liking it so far."
"If you want to be able to put it on fast... get the SPC tubes adapters and the Axl Equinox cummerbund."
"AXL Equinox is the way to go."
#2
Beez Combat Systems
3.9
(15)
"Find the one with Tubes that matches your PC’s back attachment."
"Beez combat systems"
"Beez combat systems 3/4 cell Velcro or tubes."
"Beez combat 3 cell tubes 3 band or axl equinox."
"Beez combat cummerbund?"
"Depends on your packing requirements Dynamic principles or beez combat systems"
"Could have this too https://www.beezcombatsystems.com/products/ar-elastic-cummerbund-3-4-cell-tubes-kit"
"Your beez combat cummerbund should have molle on it mine does and it has a gp on one side water bottle pouch on the other"
"I'd check out this Beez combat cummerbund."
"Https://www.beezcombatsystems.com/collections/cummerbunds/products/ar-3-finger-elastic-3-cell-velcro or if you want a more load bearing option you’d want the new axl cummerbund."
#3
A&A Tactical
4.2
(12)
"I replaced the stock cummerbund on my Scarab with A&A Tactical's SEACU Cummerbund."
"No. Get an A&A Tactical SEACU."
"A&A makes a SEACU cummerbund with MOLLE on it for side plate bags. I'd either go with that or the AXL equinox with standard tubes adapter"
"I personally use A&A SEACU."
"A&A Tactical, MOS Tactical, VXV Grid so you can run elastic attachment"
"It’s pretty elastic and I think you can squeeze two magazines in one for point of reference."
"The A&A seacu is of course less modular than Equinox plus wings / radio porch, but also cheaper."
"A&A Tactical makes a tubes conversion that anyone can do by themselves to the SPC cummerbund."
"A&A SECU. Look at my post if you want to see it. Has tubes and two extra slots on each side for extra mags, radio, or TQs."
"I like how this looks: https://www.aandatactical.com/collections/crye-compatible-kit/products/a-a-tactical-llc-seacu-cummerbund-for-crye-precision-jpc-avs-and-eagle-ulv-w-fs-tubes?variant=32210028167279"

Spiritus
4.6
(8)
"Just get the size 2 of the spiritus tubes Cummerbund?"
"I will give a +1 to the Spiritus cummerbunds"
"Spiritus expander wings v2 and AXL equinox works great!!"
"Expander wing Mk2 from Spiritus or the Shawshank from Shaw concepts and the Axl Equinox CB"
"So the Expander wings can hold a molle tube in them and hold a radio."
"I went the Spiritus side plate bag and cap route. That way you can use both plates and soft inserts like the Highcom 3920."
"I use the Spiritus cummerbunds on my 2.0."
"Do you do these for spiritus cummerbunds?"
#5
Ferro
4.1
(8)
"The Ferro 3AC really is the best in the biz."
"I added an AXL placard adapter to the rear of my LBT Low Profile and use a Ferro carry cummerbund."
"I'd look into adapting a Ferro stretch bund cuz you can run side plates on those with another adaptor."
"Pretty much any other Velcro cummerbund will work like the Ferro 3AC."
"Ferro if Velcro"
"You’ll still be able to use a ferro cummerbund and just ignore the clips"
"If you want kydex I'd go with ferro"
"The ferro elastic bund is normal like $60 as another option."
#6
AXL
4.0
(7)
"Axl advanced and spiritus is the way to go."
"Axl if you use shock cord"
"I use the Axl one for the tubes."
"Axl has an offering that works."
"Axl Eclipse. You'll want to get the Velcro Cummerbund Retrofit kit too, since the MEPC isn't a lace through cummerbund."
"I’d get the axl unless you are really skinny or really inflexible."
"Seen that axl has one but no experience."
#7
Beez
4.7
(6)
"I use the Beez bund on my Scarab"
"I had a Beez 4 cell with tubes. Loved it."
"I just got my tubes retrofit kit from beez."
"Beez combat elastic bro."
"Beez makes a 3 cell cbund that’s pretty small."
"Any velcro to Velcro cbunds should work, so ferro compatible ones will work for you. BEEZ I think makes some."
#8
Defense Mechanisms
4.6
(5)
"The qd cummberbund they offer is a huge quality of life improvement. I actually bought their cummerbund for my Slickster."
"The Defense Mechanisms MEPC set up in a "Slick" configuration might actually work well for you. We have it for $190, features mesh lined platebags, QD Elastic cummerbund, Molle Velcro panel and built in admin pouch."
"So the recommendation i'd give is the Defense Mechanism MEPC. Clocks im around $190, elastic cumberbund, can be used slick or with a decent load."
"Check out defense mechanisms."
"I use this. Still evaluating it but it feels solid so far!"
#9
Arbor Arms
4.6
(5)
"I use an Arbor Arms non-maritime cummerbund. It’s fantastic and compatible with almost anything"
"Arbor arms tradesman for the win!"
"Arbor arms Tradesman"
"I’ve always liked Arbor Arms cummerbund kits."
"I would just get that."
#10
Crye
3.8
(5)
"The Crye one is good but i also like the Beez stretch as well"
"It didn’t compare to the rigidity of the equinox cummerbund that I eventually upgraded to."
"The Crye SPC one if you want to save money...AXL if you dont"
"Buy a used crye or similar one on r/gunaccessoriesforsale"
"The Crye one is fine but is comically large for its listed sizes."
#11
MOS Tactical
4.5
(4)
"MOS Tactical makes some really nice first spear tube CBunds, I love mine."
"If you like the 3-band skeletal cummerbund but want tubes with it MOS tactical makes some pretty well made ones. It’s what I run"
"MOS tactical, A&A tactical, AXL advanced and spiritus all have options with tubes"
"I got my tubes from MOS tactical."
#12
Cummerbund
3.4
(5)
"You can get customized kit for reasonable prices. Very happy with my purchase for AVS."
"I personally run 1 molle velcro and 1 molle tube. 1 if for adjustment the other is for quick release."
"The AVS is kind of pointless without the harness, you may as well get a JPC for less money"
"Having tubes is nice but I have to say, adjusting it is kind of a hassle."
"Might not be cheaper."
#13
Agilite
4.3
(4)
"Agilite, always and forever."
"I have an agilite multicam cummerbund posted on gafs atm."
"I really like my agilite war fighter, skeletonized but also not?"

#17
Velocity Systems
4.0
(2)
"Defense mechanisms and velocity systems are good ones that I've used."
"Velocity systems cummerbund for the APC is pretty nice stretch and molle/side armor compatability."
#18
Shaw
3.5
(2)
"Yeah Shaw or AXL, you might have to do the paracord loop mod on the molle to keep the cummerbund secured to the rear plate bag."
"Shaw or Axl for cb. Of note the Thorax won’t be able to fit the issued soft armor backers."
#19
Tubes
3.0
(2)
"Did you buy the tubes separate, or did they come withe velcro connector?"
