Just wondering if anyone has tried any. I've seen a few different models but haven't found any good reviews. I prefer to go on personal opinions of people who regularly use their vests. I am leaning towards either a Guarder FSBE w/CIRAS type setup or a Guarder RAV. If anyone could give some personal opinions I'd greatly appreciate it.

I have the Guarder MOD II carrier. It's really nice. I don't know about you but I'm super-skinny and sometimes the velcro sides will come off just a little. It's not that bad but I'm pretty sure it won't be a problem if you're not a beanpole. I'm looking into buying the Phantom Eagle CIRAS. It's a replica of the Eagle Industries one and usually goes for about $200 shipped. My Guarder MOD II was $80 shipped from an ebay store. It came with 4 mag pouches and I bought a Tactical Tailor tripple magazine pouch to go with it. www.airsoftcanada.com/archive/index.php/t-21898.html |

I own the phantom, I bought it off redwolf. Altogether, it was just under 200 shipped. Well worth the money. Obviously not as great as the real thing, but it's definitely good for airsoft.

Yeah, the Phantom was definitely high on my list. I'm not worried about getting something close to the real thing, I have my issued Interceptor and plates for that. I just need a good vest for airsoft use.

Orion, could I trouble you for some pictures? I've been considering picking up the Phantom CIRAS for a while now and I'll be coming into some cash soon. If you could take some pictures of the stitching in particular (so I can see the quality), along with some of the overall rig, that would really help me out, and it'd be very much appreciated.
I know what the rig looks like, it's the question of quality thats holding me back from buying it.

Sure thing, I'll have them up in a bit.
Ah, I can't find my camera cord, so sorry until then. I'll find it soon.

It's cool, I found some detailed pictures on militaryphotos.net, so I'm sold.
Thanks anyway.

Alright, well I'm still having trouble locating my cord, so my photos aren't available. King, do you mind posting the links you found? Veritas may find them helpful. As well as any other person here intrested in it.
