Also, i'm using a Brian's M-Series C/A
But i find the belly area a little too short for my taste, other than that this thing is a tank.
Any bauer users in here? and how are the bauer C/As? Are they mobile and very protective? i hear those have an extendable belly protection which is totally where i'm interested

Yeah i feel the same way, i added some gel to my bicep pads on my Brian's but the length at the belly is what kills it for me.
Right now i'm looking at the Bauer Reactor and the Pro, and a Brown 2100 although the chest plate on the 2100 is a little HUGE for my taste

I have a one95 SR Small. In the last year I found most units in a small have the perfect length in the arms for me, but found most really short in the belly. For some reason the bauer one95 small is substantially longer in the stomach than anything else I have ever used. Great unit all around I find. Going to upgrade to the NXG when I get mine sold.
I had a passau senior small, and it was great , just a tad short in the stomach. Overall it was the best collaboration of mobility and protection. Just short in the stomach. But a medium was too big in the arms and shoulders/neck area for me.
The vision 9500 sr small was great, mobility wise. But I found out pretty quick in JR B tryouts that anything in the upper chest/neck/collarbone area transferred right through to my body (impact/force wise). This unit was fine in length, although.
The Mckenney 870 sr small chest protector that I had was honestly the perfect size along side great range of motion and mobility. It made me look very big in the chest area, belly came down to the perfect length as well. It was lacking in protection and beefy-ness although. But I figure a brand new one would be a great chesty all around.
Hope that gives some insight.
Looking for the following..
Any Mathieu Perreault Gear
Size Small Navy 9k Shells
Any Smaller Jets/Moose Gear
13" Navy Base Gloves

sounds like you're a small arm medium body?
i do see a lot of goalies mix up their C/A like that.
