Also as time goes on and you use gear you'll find things that work for you and things that don't. You'll start making functional decisions based on your last kit failure. Thats why you shouldn't run out immediately and buy that $1200USD plate carrier rig and populate it with $60 mag pouches. I've had stuff that was authentic that simply did not work for me, and the replica stuff that did. I've also had the opposite happen. Bottom line is I had to start some where, acquire, use, ditch, upgrade, wash-rinse-repeat until you find your happy place.
Yeah and opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. Just formulate your own based on use and adaptation.
