As I said, they LOOK great, I have no idea about internal quality. I'd take it from you though Ct, as you've had 2 with no luck...

Fit and finish of them is great. Just the Internal build quality of it isn't where it should be. You're going to spend a lot for this setup, just to get it competitive with others on the field. There really arent "upgrades" for it either. Just construcking a HPA rig as you said, and putting in a AEG cut barrel and bucking. It's going to put you out close to a grand. Dont believe me? Just watch. It'll add up real quick.
EDIT: No, They were both the new versions.

I don't find any practicality behind buying ANOTHER crossdraw. How may do you have? need? As far as gun option, Gas sniper rifles are money pits, from many airsofters that have good highly upgraded gas sniper rifles are skywards of a grand. Thats just my $0.02.

Don't waste your money on a crossdraw dude. They look ridiculous, and for a little bit more money you can get a decent vest. Take the advice of the people that have been around a while.
You don't want the landscape of a ciras? Then go out and get a small plate carrier. Either option is 100x better than a lousy crossdraw.

I like the loadout, don't care too much for the head piece, should get a helmet or a hat even, the balaclava look isn't all that great IMO But other than that nice work.

I like the loadout, don't care too much for the head piece, should get a helmet or a hat even, the balaclava look isn't all that great IMO But other than that nice work. Thanks. I am planing on getting a helmet and other gear for my new load-outs. P.S. To everyone else After my rifle that I am getting I just won't have enough for a molle rig and the extras that I would want to buy for it. A new cross-draw vest would be a temporary fix to the problem of not having any LBE for my green MarPat load-out. I am not getting a tac-vest because there wouldn't be much of a difference using it instead. I also want a nice secure space for my pistol and I don't want to put it in a mag pouch. I can spend $50 on a new CT cross-draw vest, but I can't spend the $150+ I would want to spend on a really good molle rig and all the pouches for it. I just don't have enough money for it at the beginning of the summer. I will have a summer job and then I'll have enough money for a completely filled in molle rig. There is just too much things I need on my shopping list for airsoft that I will not be able to replace buying another $50 cross-draw vest with a $200 dollar molle rig with all the trimmings. I have to do this because of the monetary situation. Though some of you don't understand my logic, it doesn't matter, it is not like I need or should have to explain everything I'm getting to justify how much I can't afford a complete molle rig right now. I'll just end up writing an essay that people will just skim over and take out of context. I am definitely not going to play airsoft on the green team with a molle rig that is completely bare because I couldn't afford everything else for it. I want to be able to play on both teams, so I need a full kit for both load-outs. If my LBE is inefficient so be it, I'll just have to deal with it until I can afford the rig I want.

If you're worried about dropping a hundo on a molle plate carrier, the why even drop half that on a crossdraw. It seems illogical that you want to save money by spending atleast half of what you're trying to save up for.
Just my .02.

JUST BUY COYOTE TAN MOLLE AND BE DONE WITH IT.
It matches near EVERY type of camo, and you can customize it HOWEVER YOU WANT. I hate wasting money on useless junk. Especially if you buy two crossdraws and then end up getting a chest rig in the future.
X3 crossdraws= 150$
X1 Good/budget Plate carrier that does everything and then some<100$
I don't understand this thread.

I'm not worried about wasting my airsof money, it is just that my money tank for airsoft goes empty after I buy all the other things I want, like the rifle, helmet, tan MP7 holster, Shemagh, ETC. So I'm buying the cross-draw to use until I start getting money from my summer job and I'll have enough for a molle rig and all the accessories I want with my first paycheck and I'll have money to spare.

FAT MIKE! Vamp, I wish you'd just do things that make sense already. You've got some decent stuff, use it to your advantage. Otherwise,

I wear a crossdraw. I like how lightweight it is. I have never needed more.
I honestly feel like the Molle rigs are overkill for a friendly game of bb gun tag.
