Matrix Special Force Cross Draw Tactical Vest w/ Built In Holster & Mag Pouches (Color: ACU)

"Pro:
Mesh allow good air flow, not very hot wearing it.
Lots of useful magazine pouches built in.
Holster built in, rare on most vests. (Plenty of magazine pouch for the pistol)
Great amount of color available to match all uniform.
Come with a very nice tactical belt retailed for $15.
Easy to get ready and setup for quick games.
Affordable. Can't go wrong with $40. Modular vests will cost you big bucks and without gear knowledge you can waste a lot of money.

Con: To many people have it. Black hawk, eagle industries, condor, UTG and all major tactical gear company makes it.
If the magazine catch of the pistol is hit magazines will drop. This happens often in games so I recommend putting the magazine in the pouch (4 pistol mag pouch built in on this vest.)

Overall: A good vest to have. Even if you want to customize your own MOLLE vest, this is still a good vest to use for quick indoor games or hot days.

"Ya. A vest for a good price it wont rip apart,the Velcro is strong. I have 4 and the zipper broke on 1 possibly user error. There are plenty of poaches,just about everything besides a dump poach that you will need because putting x2 mags per poach is all well and good when you are taking them out but putting them back may get you shot while you are trying to put them back. Fits plates,durable nylon and adjustable unless you are very small or alot bigger person,but if you take the effort to mod it a bit it can be all you need (maybe replace the zipper for Velcro?) I would get this as opposed to spending twice as much on a try hard load out myself. $30 is a good deal in comparison. I modded mine so I have quick draw mags.

"Great vest! Defiantly worth your money. Holster is a little flappy tho.

"The vest itself is fantastic. It's adjustable where it needs to be, and the integrated belt is perfect for whatever else you'll need to attach. I absolutely have to take a star off for the holster though. Mine was sewn shut when I got it and has no discernable mechanism to hold a pistol in place if you don't have a lanyard. Great product but buy a real holster separately.

"I just got my vest today, and i am happy with the product. It can fit around a larger frame and the mag pouches are going to be very useful. Its a smaller vest, but that's really what its made for, and for 40 dollars it was worth it. There are wto glaring issues with mine however. I notices the vest was supposed to have the pistol holster on the side of the vest, and the extra mag pouches on the side. However mine came reversed, the mag pouches are sewn in and the pistol holster is is on the side. If the main picture is supposed to be an accurate representation, the holster was not made correctly. The part to put thw gun in is reversed, and the strap that's supposed to hold the grip in cannot do its job. Im not sure if they are all like this, so if someone else has my issue, can you let me know? It seems like such a glaring issue for one to have, so im hoping its not a design flaw that happened on a pot of them. Other than that, a great buy if you want a starter vest that has everything you would need right off the bat.

"Good beginner's vest, the zipper is very cheap though and one of the zipper pin broke

"I've had this vest and its fits pretty good its nice and comfy but it does get hot and the pouches are hard to get m4/m16 magazines in it

"very odd vest with too many straps, but it is comfy, makes any bdu look good and not "school shooterish" but for like half the price you could just buy the black swat version.

"Very nice starter vest and has seen me through it all, but don't let anyone get behind you, they can grab the strap on the back and take you hostage. The vest works but kind of labels the wearer as a "noob". I have had it for a year and it can hold 20 lbs of equipment, despite missing a chunk of the zipper. That being said, it is a steal at $40 and is the perfect starter vest.

"Vest its self holds up pretty well, However the belt that attached to it is bad quality! and doesn't adjust in size at all.
If you try adjusting the size, the belt then feels weird and makes you wanna take it off during a battle. I just use the vest without the belt, it then looks a little short but it works.
Out of all the vests on here id say (By looks) this one is the best.

"This vest offers mobility and breath-ability while offering customization to more hardcore players that have a budget.

Pros:
Comes with a pistol holster
LOTS of mag pouches
Left side pistol holster and upper mag pouches can be fully removed
Adjustable to different sizes
Sturdy built in belt

Cons:
Adjusting straps on the sides to smaller people can be a pain trying to secure the leftover length (I stuck leftover straps to go in the loops on the back of the vest)
No velcro on backside
Must sacrifice velcro space on the front for any patches or velcro accessories

"If you're just starting off in airsoft this vest is for you. It's cheap, efficient, and has plenty of room for all your gear. With a $38 price tag it's more than affordable. No need to get vests upwards of $100. I've been playing airsoft for half a year now and this vest has stuck with me since the beginning.

Pros:
-C. H. E. A. P. Probably the least expensive, toughest vest on evike.
-6 m4/m16 pouches, 5 pistol pouches, 1 detachable pistol holster, 2 tool pouches= more room than you'll ever need.
-Very adjustable. Can fit the largest and smallest people.
-Very sturdy. The polyester and whatever other inexpensive materials used to create the fabric part of the vest are very strong.

Cons:
-Lots of loose cords, straps, buckles, etc. (especially for me since I'm a smaller guy). They can snag on anything if your not careful. I recommend tying or sewing down loose ends.
-Similarly quite loud and shaky. Can give away your position. Again, tie down anything that moves around.
-Zipper and buckle are quite terrible to be honest. My buckle broke after a couple months, but it can be replaced quite easily. For the zipper, just zip carefully :)
-The woodland camo on the vest was a little bit lighter than in the picture and lighter than the BDU I ordered. Nothing major though, but it hurts my OCD.
No other complaints to speak of. You get what you pay for, a cheap, Chinese-made vest. But DAMN is it a good cheap, Chinese-made vest! Would recommend greatly for all new players.

"This Vest suits all of my needs for carrying practically everything i need. The Pistol holster holds all the pistols that i have used and if you take off the shotgun shells holders you have a place for a patch. The only bad thing i have to say about this vest is the adjusting, its weird to adjust.

"I have had this vest for a little over a year now, and have used it in a dozen or so matches. Overall its been a good reliable vest that did what I needed it to do. Just recently though it started falling apart the zipper broke and the velcro is becoming worn out. But overall the vest has done its job and helped me out with my airsofting.
