SAAV.
If you cant fit it in a SAAV then you dont need it.

Re: Help with Tac Vest

both cracking rigs, and viper are well made too, for the money, you cant beat either!

Mate there is a cracking multicam one on a very well known auction site at the moment made by Warrior for £65.00 with all the pouches.

Doesnt really matter what you carry as long as you keep those "spear bb's" handy

BAD:
viper, webtex avoid at all cost.......terrible gear + there poorly stitched pieces of junk, also 58' pattern gear(it shrinks when wet)
GOOD:
vanguard, some stuff which is issued, PLCE (when put together right!) Artkis is alright
sorry to put it bluntly its just I'm fed up with "those" manufactures! (rant over)

Pretty sure you can fit 2 RPK drum mags in a SAAV .

But Viper is by far the best value for money, you get a great starter vest that lasts.

Re: Help with Tac Vest

Yeah you can fit drum mags in an rpk you've obviously got the cash to get a decent rig for your money though so stay away from cheap crap like webtex and viper or nasty chinese copies, you'll only have to replace them quicker. there's a guy on here selling an arktis assault vest for forty pounds, which is an excellent deal as they can retail for around a hundred. Very well made vests with tons of room. On the other hand on ebay search plat a tac and there are some decent high speed custom dpw chest rigs for sale

I am in the process of changing my loadout, I am moving from greens to Desert DPM!

If you go to everybody's favourite auction site and search for "plate carrier coyote" then there are a few results that come up, I have been looking for the carriers that are BIN @ £19.99 w/ £18.69 postage as well as the ones that are BIN @ £42.29 w/ £38.99 postage..

I think that they look rather cool, and there is certainly what you are looking for with both!

Just an idea

Vipers amazing? Webtex is pretty good too...

I agree with the first link that TAC sent you...

AHEM! PLCE oh thats right PLCE is webtex, well the proper stuff, and viper is over priced Junk. Webtex works fine if it works for the WHOLE british Amry then I am sure it will work for you at the weekends!

Warrior though is the best in my eyes. Its the British equivalent of the MOLLE setup.
