    I'm currently looking for a molle style tactical vest something similar in style to this one http://www.airsofteire.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=129&category_id=9&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=26.

    Can anyone recommend a similiar item at a reasonable price or just point me in the right direction?

    Thanks!:)


    I use this one currently, very happy with it, but make sure to buy some extra pouches with ithttp://ebaybanned.com/product_info.php?cPath=62_27&products_id=161

    I have that exact vest from airsofteire, along with two other cheaper MOLLE vests which I picked from Ebaybanned and Tactical Gear Depot and I can tell you in all honesty that the difference is stark. The cheaper vests I got were $70 and $100 respectively, before the cost of the extra pouches. Compare that, plus the 4 week wait and the ridiculous sizes, to the 24 hour wait for the vest from airsofteire with vastly superior quality and a full compliment of pouches.
    Cheap MOLLE vests are a false economy, a good one will last you a lot longer and will fit a lot more comfortably.

    Thanks guys! Yea you're dead right dex, was hanging on to see if i could find anything comparable a bit cheaper. wouldn't u know it's outa stock now :p!!

    i got a cross draw vest from rsov i think it was back in about may, fast delivery and all, but god help me it wouldn't fit my little sister and the build quality was crap, think i gave it to the SVP:D.

    I'll keep looking!

    You'll find the big problem with getting tav vests from HK retailers is the size, their version of medium could be large or small. The last vest I ordered said "one size fits all" but actually was a small size with little-to-no adjustment. The only proper one size vest I've seen is the SAAV, everything after that you'd want to be checking out first.

    I bought this vest on Ebaybanned only in coyote Brown, fantastic item, well worth the money -more importantly its fully ajustable

    cheers lad i saw that alright it's there in OD and coyote brown as well i think. it's just the whole size thing again, it says it fits 5'5" to 6' 1" or something but you'd wonder.... it's tempting.

    I've got a fair bit of stuff from ebaybanned at this stage and i only have good things to say about it! Don't have the hassle of dealing with couriers either which is an advantage!

    I've the OD version of that vest and I have to say it is very adjustable (I'l 6ft and lardy and I don't use its max setting on the straps that run inside it). Also its a great vest with lots of pouches and extra real estate for you to use.

    Just ordered it there chuck you reassured me about the size issue. I'm only 5'10"ish so it should be grand. Should only take about a month to get to me:D

    Going by mine (the one they have on the site now have slightly different pouches) it should not just fit you but should look like its the right size for you too. You order the plates for it? they're a laugh but will make you sweat in the summer :pac:
