Tan will work much better. BTW, you are going to regret buying that PC. Looks cheaply made/poorly designed.

If you are using MARPAT my bet says that you play in a relatively vegetated area. So if you want to blend in a fraction more, go with OD.

The one that makes you invisible when you're standing in front of the enemy's christmas tree

I assumed he was using MARPAT... i.e. "digital woodland".

Get CB. That is Coyote Brown. It must work, because the marines use it with their marpat!

MARPAT doesn't mean just the digital woodland, it can cover that, desert, and a snow pattern. MARPAT really just means Marine Pattern not any particular color variant.

Anyway i second CB, not as bright as tan and won't clash as rough as OD will with woodland MARPAT.

Right, but I'd think people would be specific if they were talking about desert or snow.

My vote still goes for OD, but as Spl. Durkee said, rethink your choice on the vest.

for desert or woodland marpat CB is king! Also I agree with durkee, those vests look cheap, and also the coloration looks way off and strange...

Thanks for the info. Do you think this PC is any better than the first?

I'm looking for a decent priced vest that I can be light & mobile with. I don't have to carry much on them since the games are only like an hour or two long.

You want this. It is a replica of the vest I have (go to pictures/video > kit pics> one of the last pages). It is a great system, distributes weight great, is INCREDIBLY comfortable, and has A LOT of MOLLE. It also won't cause you to overheat, but it will keep your body heat in enough. It is the all around perfect vest. I promise you that this will be the best buy you can do for the money.

P.S. The real one is called the " Eagle Plate Carrier with Cummerbund " so if you want to know more about this style, you can check into that.

If they adjust like the real EPC (Which I believe they do) Then it will fit anybody from Gandhi to Fat Bastard.
