Yes I know its from buyairsoft, but that's beside the point.

Just looking for something for a beginner, not looking to spend too much. Looks reasonable, but you know better than me :smile:

No on two fronts. One, it has little in the way of any protection in CQB. Two, it is over priced for what it is.

I have a vest from EHobbyAsia and I think it is pretty good for what I paid for...Its the EA Gear CQB vest in CB. I would have to say it is a static vest and I will be getting a MOLLE setup when I actually get the money for it. Also thank you for that list of links, I will use them too

Its all in what you like I'm going back to a set load bearing vest a LBT (London Bridge trading Company) 1961a And thats cause they are light. I love my ciras to bits but somedays I really hate its weight. But as long as everyone finds what works for them that is the golden ticket.
The biggest thing to remember is that you do not need to have the latest gear that's in Ghost Recon, or COD or whatever bullshit game. Because if it doesn't even make sense to you design wise why should you wear it? just my 2 cents.

I'm with TCLP on this. Find what's comfortable, suits your style of play and wear it around the house. Practice mag swaps etc. Learn your gear, develop muscle memory, it'll save your ass in a game.
