Ok, so I want to buy a brown colored plate carrier , howver, I have no idea who makes good quality ones. I don't want to buy some $200 vest from an army supplier, just something that is quality and will get the job done. Suggestions?

Check ebaybanned.com. They have a large selection of vests/sets. You can get some medium quality vests with all pouches for around 100 dollars on there website.

www.airsoftsmith.com I'd suggest the PANTAC MBSS with matching pouches. A few mag pouches, drop pouch, accessory pouch, radio pouch, admin pouch, etc. They're located in Ohio and their shipping is QUICK!

Thanks much for the great link Devildogdoc, I'll deffinatly be buying from that site, they are much lower than anywhere else plus they're in Ohio! I'll prolly get the CB MBSS when it comes in stock with a bunch of matching pouches. Damn, a full full Pantac vest for around $150, sweeeet.

That's exactly what my thinking was. I'd rather support an AMERICAN company over one from Gookland. Just my .02. I'm glad ya found it helpful. If ya need any advice as far as what to purchase, let me know. I'll see what I can do!

You don't HAVE to get the MBSS, but I do agree 100% with the Pantac recommendation. I know from experience that they offer great quality, and are definitely built to last.
Airsoftsmith is a great retailer, and is stateside but they don't have everything that Pantac makes unfortunately. If you dont mind paying a little shipping, you can usually find most of the Pantac stuff on redwolfairsoft.com or on ebay.

Well, I didn't meen to turn this into a racial showdown but yeah, I'm suprised that Pantac is a Chinese company, no offense to them but their products arn't usually as high quality as the Taiwanise, European, and of course US companies. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Chinese factories are capable of turning out quality as good as any large scale manufacturer - Lenovo Thinkpads are very nice pieces of equipment, to pick an obvious example. It's a question of how hard the vendor monitors the quality of the work. If you focus purely on cost control, you get crappy clone AEGs with pot metal gears. If you monitor every step of the process and pay for top of the line results, you can get a very nice product.

Pantac is made in China. An American Company buys it. I buy it from them. In turn, more of my money goes to them than the amount that goes to the production company itself. So he is supporting an American business instead of just buying straight from China. |
