    You can get a Condor MBSS like I have for 35$ish and then spend the rest on pouches. Idk if you can get them in ACU but they have black.

    UTG will be your best bet, other vests your gonna have to buy mag pouches and other stuff for, thus costing you more money.

    I suggest one of the condor plate carriers so you can get whatever color you want and the loadout is complete customizable, but I have also heard good things about this vest, and for 70 you have a good bit to get you started.

    this setup is also cusomizable, but only comes in black, od and tan.

    The matrix vests are about halfway down the page. they make more now, but i have only heard and seen reviews for the Matrix Tactical Systems High Speed Combat Simulation Vest "Metal Gear Ciras".

    I like the design of the cumberbund and how easy it makes taking the thing off.

    And to the OP if your using ACU's I would suggest Tan or ACU pattern vest. Just my opinion but black with ACU wouldnt look that great.

    For the fahionista's it would clash since there is no black within the ACU Pattern, just a suggestion though. You do whatever makes you not get HIT Wink

    I have seen some of those and in my opinion they just look and feel really really cheap. Mainly because they are ment to be cheap, but i doubt this will last more than a few games. I think you would be better going with something in Condor.

    I agree about Condor, I havent seen or felt the actual matrix vest, but if Twitch says they seem cheap I would error on the side of caution. Go condor

    Condor.....hhmmmmmmmmm.......crap, but that is MY opinion, and I have some. I will be replacing both of my triple mag shingles. The left (as worn) pouch on each one is coming apart. I will be going with TT or maybe some Mayflower. I also like the DBT short ones. My Tactical Tailor single mag shingles have been in use since 2004 through Iraq, The Former Republic of Georgia, and Afghanistan. ONE (1) of them is starting to wear out. I have only had the Condor ones since F.E.A.R. Granted, I got them used, but I don't think they are as old as my others, nor as used.

    I guess what I'm trying to say is....you get what you pay for.

    Condor has ok quality but the quality control is not good. I had some stacker mag pouches from them and the pals webbing was not properly sewn so I couldn't weave them correctly. It's hit and miss. If you can save for a while and go for Pantac or real gear that would be best. It's not cheap but once you buy it you'll never have to get any more (unless you want to, which you will Very Happy ).
