Nah it's not bad, usually pistols are stuck to the chest for vehicle operations, but I can't stand drop legs so I leave it there. Works better on a rhodesian though. And I'm 24, Major is the dinosaur in that picture  |

So would you rather use the Rhodesian style? Or the MOLLE? Also, where did you purchase the Rhodesian?

Suck it trebek.
The Rhodesian I have now is the 30 dollar knockoff, I can't remember the brand but it's well made. Not molle though, only the chest plate. Rhodesian rigs are for mags and not much more. If you want to carry eveything including the kitchen sink they you will like one of the plate carriers, or at least a chest rig that has a back plate.

Hey now! I'm the resident authority on dinosaurs around here and those two pups in the pic are not there yet! ;D Anyway, I have tried several different types and the "Rodesian" style are good but seem to be made out of heavy material and therefore,wear well and hold more pouches(weight) but I've founfd a preferance for the TT MAV to carry just ammo and a handgun in a Serpa holster (like Jumps) I prefer the open back to dissapate heat as compared to a full vest. I'm a big rascal and I put out a lot of heat and as long as the mission allows,I will go with the lighter rig but if needed,I can roll with a backpack or even a Camelbak without changing how I carry my mags in the front.

Troubadour, I was looking at kinda the same vest like that. Except this one had a full back for a hydration bladder. It also doesn't have the radio pouch on the left side, which is great for me because I shoot left handed... ;D

Left-Handed shooting is doing it wrong. Where did you find this vest at Lancer? |

I actually have that vest in OD. So far I like it a lot.
I used to use ALICE gear back in the day when I was paint-balling, so this was a big step up from what I was used to. It has built in pockets for 6 mags and I plan on stacking at least another 5 right on the outside of them. The hydration pocket is ENORMOUS! (btw the bladder that it comes with sucks eggs). Overall I am impressed with it. My only complaint is they don't make one in a size small, for my son.

I'd go with the PC, just because I don't like vests like that. Really up to you, that will likely be cooler (heat wise,) but less accurate to real world impressions in my opinion.

I'd go with the Plate Carrier.
