Hey guys, so I *finallllyyy* received the carrier...!

Here are some photos if you want to help me ID it;
More comments at the end
The pouches are also "Msa/Paraclete" and the same color/materials as the carrier

Except the Utility pouch, where you'll see the colors differs (last 2 photos)

So the last two photos show the utility pouch, which is a Phantom
There's two thing that matched my eyes:

1- The Paraclete Pouches, on the Molle straps, have the same small band as the phantom pouch you see in the last photo. So when you finished weaving the pouches, you tuck the extra length of strap under the pouch's molle webbing (hard to explain...)

2- The Molle webbing of the carrier is not super consistent; The width between stitches seems to vary slightly around the 1" standard width (for instance, when weaving the left pouch, one of the strap isn't aligned properly in the carrier's "column", and is skewed, because the stitching is a bit narrower than it should)

So,
The Phantom util pouch definitely copies the same design as of the Paraclete
Don't have the same color
Has not MSA/Paraclete tag, but has a Phantom tag
Material seems to be the same

The carrier and mag pouches have the same color and material
Seems to be 500D, good quality at first look, lightweight

Thoughts?
