Does anyone know where I can buy a backplate for a smaller (5’ 1”) person? The usual suspects (DGX, DRIS) seem to only carry one size.

Halcyon. It comes in steel, aluminum, or kydex. $225 for steel/aluminum. Worth every freaking penny. Made a huge difference for me. I’m 5’5”.
ETA: it was $225 when I bought mine right before Christmas. Now $236. Choose the small size from the drop down menu.

Just a friendly correction: not Kydex but carbon fiber.
Thanks for that. I was really hoping for a non-four-dollar-sign alternative, especially since it’s just a metal plate. If no one else pipes up with an alternative, I’ll have to bite the bullet for the Halcyon.
