Quality is decent. Updated review.
To preface this review I am a Correctional Officer specifically an Inmate Transporter and I wear body armor every day. I am also in charge of the Armory. I'm giving this 4 stars. The quality of the armor is great. It's the fit that docks it 1 star. The inserts are between a quarter and a half inch to long. Width is perfect though. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone that is in search of quality affordable armor.
I am updating my review to give it a 5 star. After my first review, I was talking to a friend of mine that has the same cummerbund and carrier as I do and so we tried fitting the inserts into his and they fit perfectly without any wrinkles in the armor. So I believe that it was my cummerbund that was at fault. I was able to fix the issue by cutting one stitch out and re-sewing the cummerbund.
