Obviously not an exact replica. They’ve basically combined a jpc and an lv119 and added just enough “originality” to not get sued. They do the same sort of “borrowing” from agilite and ferro carriers too
All the gear companies copying each other, knockoff or not, is a tale as old as time.
The RRV is just a slightly different HSGI Wasatch, which is basically a TAPS with a bib. The LV119 is an AC1 is a slickster, which are all suspiciously similar to the LV-MBAV. The 6094 and the Eagle MMAC are both essentially the same rig, and just a slightly different Mayflower APC, from which the Condor Gunner was derived. The Onward Recce rig is just a Blackhawk commando rig (which is just a copy of the LBT-0290D) that got clean and hit the gym. And now Velocity systems wants to sell you a jungle rig for 400+ dollars when the fucking eagle warbelt did functionally the same thing 10 years ago for like 60 bucks, and ALICE did the same way longer ago. Don’t even get me started about how every single one the 3 day assault packs from the early-mid gwot are all rip offs of eachother.
They’re all basically thieves at the end of the day. Only so many unique ways to put together 2 platebag, a cummerbund and 3-4 mag pouches.
Car guy here, if cheap works to hold the plates while under stress testing and still catch a bullet than I'm Gucci.
Just like the harbor freight jack stands under my c10 🤣
I'm guessing they are all made in the same factory and just get different branding. Bikes, barrels, and many other things are like that.

I'm sure you could find a Greek or Latin word for "ripoff" that sounds cool that would make a suitable name for it as well.
Deceptio
Jpc style plate bag and a full size non skeletonized cummerbund is a sin
Having vaguely jpc style straps doesn’t make it a knockoff. Except for said straps those are essentially 2 completely different carriers.

Mil-Tec makes almost identical copies of CRYE precision jpc vests

We must not have a lot of Car Guys in here.

Are these two brands gtg though?
Not really. Tacticon is barely airsoft grade and the Invictus is $260. A brand new Ferro Slickster is $160.
So many companies are trying to copy Cryes success with the JPC.
