  • which vest to choose?

    I'm looking for some advice/recommendation on what vest to buy.

    I already have molle pouches:

    Holster, 4 pistol pouches, grenade pouch, comms pouch and a general pouch so it needs to fit all of these on it

    Has to be multicam

    Looking for something of decent quality, lightweight

    if anyone could recommend one it would really help

      I second that, warrior kit is the best for quality balanced with price, but stay away from plate carriers, way too hot or this time of year.
      Alternatively, look at a bulle mle in multicam, super light, cheap as chips but good quality, & very comfortable in warm weather.

        Viper also produce a very low profile rig, which has a day bag that can be clipped on the back that also doubles as a camel back

          Flyye make some very nice vests and tend to make clones of the popular real world stuff I have one of their LBT 6094A replicas and its served me very well for the last 3 years.

          Warrior also make top notch kit for a reasonable price and they also tend to have a lot of sales on with discount codes so you can always grab a little more money off if you time it well.

          Viper have (apparently) stepped up their game and improved the quality of their stuff but I haven't used any of their gear for the last 5 years or so so cant comment on recent stuff.

          Of course you could always go for the seriously gucci stuff and go Crye Precision. They will certainly be lightweight and you won't be a the quality.

          On a side note, I would also advise against carrying a pistol on your vest. Maybe its just personal preference but when I did it i couldn't stand it. Either hanging off at the wrong angle, too heavy or somthing else. If your happy with it then its your choice but personally its a mid ride thigh rig or a belt mounted for me

            thanks for all the advice guys. the warrior ones look decent.

            Caldymoose - I currently use a cheap drop leg holster and it annoys me so much, it sticks out, I'm undecided on either a vest mounted or get a safari land holster, proper clip in one rather than this cheap crap i got. I want the pistol to be as tight to my leg as possible, like I said the cheap one I've got feels like it hangs off me rather than being secure to my leg if you get me, really annoying!

              Yep, that's a big problem with the cheap drop legs. In my experience a UBL modded safariland is one of the best drop leg options that won't wiggle and hang around. And you can get it done with just repro gear if you don't want to splash out on real kit. YouTube will be able to help with a video explaining what I mean.
