ok, i've been searching around for some time now, and it appears to me that there is a certain shortage of tac vests designed for MP5 use. I was looking into getting a blackhawk omega vest but on their site i can't find one that holds mp5 mags, all of them are either 40mm, M-16/M-4/AK, 12Ga, or pistol pockets. Am i missing something here? I realise that there are thigh rigs that you can get for mp5 mags, but i really wanted some vest mounted pouches..

Let me see... ah, here it is. Blackhawk Omega Tac vest. Of course, I've changed my mind about what best I want several times, so I might not have changed the title. Just go through Botach Tactical and look at all of thier vests.

Is there something I missed? I just read "vests", so I posted that.

I think I read in a post either on the ASZ or ASP forums reguarding MP5 mags and Blackhawk vests. If I remember correctly MP5 magazines DO fit in the vests...2 mags per pocket.
I'd rather ask someone else or do some research though before purchasing just to be safe.
I realllly want a Blackhawk Omega Crossdraw pistol vest! And one of these days I'll get me one. I've seen a couple on ebay pretty cheap. Most have the buy it now option for only $89, which is quite low methinks. Even with the shipping it'll still come out cheaper than other sites sell them for.
Of course you could always go the replica route and buy a vest from WGC or Airsoftshop. They've got a great selection! *me wants Level IV tac vest*

I think the idea is to clip two 9mm mags together (with a strap or mag doubler) and then throw them in the pocket. I don't think it's a good idea for them to just have them loose in the pocket. I have done this and scratched up my mags pretty well.
I'll take your word for it, but I can swear that I've seen Blackhawk submachinegun vests.

Sometimes vests can be encubering. I think that leg holsters are the best way to go.
