| I recently purchased a OEtech/Condor Interceptor vest. It seems very high quality, is comfortable, and is pretty thick here are some pictures: Closed, Front with my pouches (only came with three 3-magazine pouches. Open, Front... comfortable... mmmm... Open, Back. Lots of MOLLE on this thing. Even the shoulders have MOLLE on them. Here is some pictures of my new boots | |

| Bleh, if it wasn't black I'd like it more, but congrats nonetheless. And why the heck are your magazine pouches upside down?? | |

The black is going with my new loadout which is going to be a CQB SWAT-ish thing. Black was the way to go for it. I am getting a better one that is tan for my multicam, and a chest rig for my flecktarn. My magazine pouches are upside down, because I have found through a lot of vests, that is much faster to reload, especially in a high-stress situation...pull and put into gun. Thats it, it falls out in the correct position and everything. | |

| Oh alright, fair enough. Just so you know, SWAT doesn't use Interceptors though... Still, it works fine with an Urban/tactical/CQB player. | |

I said SWAT-ish, for a loadout for the CQB. The IBA is used by the Army, if I do remember correctly... I choose not to have an exact replica in any of my loadouts, as to respect the soldiers or LE officers that wear it. | |

I'm sure there are quite a few SWAT officers out there rockin' interceptors. Just because it isn't standard issue, doesnt mean it isn't used . Looks good, Snipe. I'm very interested in seeing your loadout once completed. Are those mag pouches upside down? | |

| Ooh, man, Sno, how's the MOLLE webbing on yours? On mine, the Chinese slave worker didn't sew the webbing right so I have a bunch of unusable MOLLE. In fact, I'm getting rid of my rig because of that. Also, the pic of the boots didn't come up because my comp is retarded. What sort are they? | |

The MOLLE on mine seems to be high quality, actually. And the boots are some boots that my dad (who served as a colonel in the Air Force) gave to me. The black ones I bought for $50 from a friend, but the other ones are tan boots from Saudi Arabia, and some mukluks from more arctic places. I think I PMed my boots to you a while ago, but I thought I would share them after I posted my next picture thread. Sanguinary Angel: yes you can. There is open areas on the chest, back, and shoulder padding (if you could find it ). It is a great thing to have, as it allows you to carry whatever you need out to the field, and have it in easy-to-access pouches. | |

| Oh, okay, I remember now. I'm glad the webbing on yours isn't shitty. Mine is so bad, I need to buy a new rig. | |

| By the way, I recommend removing the arm pro. They always seem hinder my movement and prevent me from getting the butt of my rifle up into my shoulder like it should. Just a recommendation though. | |
