russian vest?

so as you know i am doing a russian loadout etc. but it seems the vests are hella expensive (60 and up)
i don't feel like chalking up 60 bucks for a simple chest rig/vest

so here is my answer to the problem

the condor chest rig.
do you think it would run well in a russian loadout?
(yes i already have one, buts broken a little...)

i just need to your opinion thanks!

yeah in my opinion anything that blends in works and this chest rig does look like it would match a lot of other camos as well as yours so yeah i think it would run well with a russian loadout

do you think it will look authentic enough? i want to be as authentic as possible

enough to make an imitation yeah! go with this chest rig it'll be very helpfull as well

but im not trying to imitate. im trying to be authentic. i know this vest. i know how it works. i just need to know if it looks authentic. perhaps this is a question better left for someone else...

I'd PM jarhead. He's who I go to when I need help with gear.

noneed to do that (lol i punned myself. im so punny)
anywho jarhead will most likely take a look at this post. so i don't need to pm the question

OOOH, i've got a pun! A baby seal walks into a club.....


Back on topic: thinking back on it, probably the best idea. That way other people can gain from the topic, too.

yes. indeed.
apparently when i announced i was doing a russian loadout, everyone freaked out and wanted to do one as well. so this will help all the other doing it as well

Eh, I'm going with a contractor load out. But still, I love AKs.

you could do a contractor loadout with aks (get the tactical ak and then get a crapload of waffle mags)

anywho back on topic. do you think that vest in your opinion would go well with a russian loadout?

I suggest the PIONEER M23 chest rig

Maybe. It depends on what else you're wearing. OD plate carrier, MICH-2000 helmet, AK variant. All of those things together would work, but just this and a condor plate carrier, I don't think it would work out too well.

i won't be wearing a mich-2000 helmet. or a plate carrier. (its a russian loadout, silly crowbar )
that pioneer vest is looking sexy. ill try to find it elsewhere for cheap thank for the suggestion durkee. you're always reliable

That rig is actually very similar to SPOSN (Russian manufacturer for its military) gear, so it should work

Ya haha thats why I suggested it.
Much cheaper also.

A small suggestion: If you've had something before and it broke, you may want to do a cost/benefit analysis before you get another one. How well did it work? How long did it last? How much did it cost? How much would a more durable one cost? How long would that one last? How well would that one work?

I'm a proponent of realistic gear. Condor is never an option for me. I started with cheap, but now I'd much rather work and save it up until I can buy something of high quality or authenticity.

I know very little about Russian rigs, my apologies, kind sir.
