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

"Mine didn't come with a pistol holster which is a bad thing for most I guess. I don't have a pistol yet so having extra mag holders was nice in place of the holster but it isn't what is advertised. Other than that, comes with belt and great build for the price! Would recommend to anyone who needs a vest for cheap and isn't picky about uniqueness.

"This vest is a great vest if your starting off and for this cheap price its very good if you have a small budget. It worked very well with my M4 but if your more experienced i wouldn't get this vest.

Pros:
- very good for first vest
- flexibility is great
- fits just about any size under 6 feet
- lots of velcro for patches
- tons of things that could be done with this vest to fit your personality
- strong velcro

Cons:
- flimsy
- could be easy to rip if tried to rip it
- the holster is not actually built in its held on by velcro

"GREAT vest for beginners, I have one that I bought from my friend, mag pouches hold 2 M4 mags each, the holster can hold almost any sidearm, overall great vest.

pros:can hold 8 M4 mags, holster, pistol mag pouches, fits great, very light while still being very durable

cons: no MOLLE of front for any customization, can't move any pouches, with heavy pistols the holster shakes around a lot (might just be because I'm too skinny)

overall, I couldn't ask for a better vest for that price

"This is a great vest. its made from good quality materials. It isnt going to break or rip on you any time soon, now one thing I want you to know is that it comes with 2 extra velcro mag pouches as well as the pistol holster! It comes with shotgun shell holders too. So for 39 dollars you get 6 mag pouches that hold 2x m4 mags or just one ak mag and 5 shotgun shell holders 1 utility pouch, molle on the back, 2x secret compartments in side the vest, radio pouch, tactical belt, 6 pistol mag pouches (I put speed loaders and other stuff in there) and the color is a good universal camo color. Its more like a tanish brown with a little green thrown in, basically its dirt colored lol. Im kinda fat and medium height and I can get this to fit me perfect. Ak mags fit nice in the pouches.

Pros:

Affordable
Lots of pouches
ajustable
Looks nice
Nice color
nice material
easy access
can be used for mulitple setups (shotgun, ar, sniper)
comes with 2 extra mag pouches
molle on the back side

cons

Velcro can be noisy
can be very common so if you want to look unique this isnt for you

In conclusion theres not really much to complain about since its 39 dollars and its great if you want to get your first tactial vest that will last you.

"Ive had this vest, in black, for about 4 years now. It has seen several battles and has held up no problem. The pouches are primarily meant for m4 type mags, but my g36 mags fit no problem. I usually carry about 7 mags with me, so i had to buy additional pouches, but they fit on very well along with the dump pouch i added. This vest carries (with the additional mag pouch and dump pouch) 7 g36 mags, 2 m9 mags, an m9, spare battery, radio, binoculars, the always needed electrical tape, and a knife.

Pros:
Fairly durable
Hydration pack pouch
Good assortment of pockets
Easy to add additional pockets

Cons:
Only carries 4 rifle mags
Zipper will come down when i run sometimes
Not very easy to go prone in
Pistol in the holster hangs out a little

Overall this is a decent vest for the price. I give it 4 out of 5.

"I really like this vest! For the price it is very good, but I did have a few problems with it. The magazines for my M14 (which are a little wider) have to squeeze to get in the mag pouches. Also for some reason there are more magazine pouches where my holster should be. And I found my holster velcroed on to the back. And it cant be fixed because the pouches that are in its place can't be removed.

Pros:
-Fits most sizes well
-Plenty of magazine capacity
-Price

Cons:
-Mag pouches are a little skinny for my taste
-Holster issue
-Zipper is a little "ehh"

"i baught this vest off of the reviews i will say now its a nice vest for the money

but in alot of reviews they say you can hold 2 m4 mags in each slot mine you can NOT, alot of reviews also say that it comes with 2 extra m4 mag pouches that can go where the pistol holder is mine did not, everything on the front of my vest is stiched on there is no removing items

but other than that all in all its a nice vest for $35

"This is a pretty good vest for the price. Mine came without the holster attached and instead more magazine pouches, but I really dont mind that. For the price it is great!

"Good vest, very adjustable. Perfect for a bigger guy looking for a decent tactical vest. Vest is very comfortable, mesh is breathable and doesn't seem to warm up too much.

Only thing is the tag says NC STAR not Condor. I don't see this as too much of a problem, but i feel it must be said. Either way, its a good vest. not the best, but not bad. 4 out of 5.

"This vest can NOT take too much of a beating. My zipper broke and won't come down. the holster was ripped off and i can't get it back on. also none of the pouches can be customized. All in all, i'd give it a 4/5 since it takes away all pain from impact. i got shot by my friend's spring M99 barrett and it only felt like a flick through the mesh. weird sounding but its protective. So if you want it for protection and the fact it comes with many pouches order it but if you want customizability then look somewhere else.

"Ive had this vest for 3 years ever since i started playing. Sure its not the best vest but it works. Im looking for a new vest but if u dnt have much money buy it. I still use mine. It still works fine. I have trouble fitting 2 mags in each pouch but i only use flash mags and i have 1 for each pouch and 1 in my gun when i begin a match. Took off pistol holster (velcro not molle) when i did use it yes sometimes my mag wuld fall out of my gun. But dnt keep mag in pistol. Theres like 6 pistol mag holsters. The molle on back is great for hydration pouch. Comfortness id rate itba 6/10 its not bad like what others say. Afterv3 years of running through manzanita bushes crawling on rocks/dirt/grass my zipper has yet to break. Basically pros: works, cheap cons: pistol holster isnt very good: no molle on front. All in all i rate it 4/5 cuz u get what u pay for and ididnt pay much wasnt expecting much but still works

"The vest is very snug on your body, and is cheap for a very good tac vest. It does hold a decent amount and the only con is the mag holder on the belt and on the side of the holster doesnt even fit speed loaders.

"I don't have a good pistol yet, so I can't really talk about the holster. But all in all, this vest has proven to be pretty good.
PROS:
It's fully adjustable.
Magazine pouches hold 2 M4 mags each.
Very cheap

CONS:
Very strong odor from the shoulder pad, made me nauseous when I first pulled it out. It took a few weeks and half a bottle of febreeze to go away.
Haven't been able to get a pistol to use the holster yet. XD

"This vest gets a 4/5 for me. The belt is great, although the holster has problems with my friends M9. Mine came with 6 mag slots, Com pouch, misc pouch with a shot shell holder on the flap, MOLLE on the back.
It would be great with beginner CQB players on a budget. Although I'd get a full MOLLE vest if I could.

Pros:
MOLLE on the back
Comfortable
One size fits most. (Me being 5,9 and 120 lbs, said friend being 5,4, and 170 lbs)
Great price.
M4 style magazine pouches being common. (Maybe a con for some)

Cons:
Holster isn't very good

"i like this vest pretty well, although so far i havent found a way to wear this and a three point sling at the same time completely comfortably. it works, but some pouches and straps get in the way, but it is still completely functional. also, im a pretty lean guy, 5'11", 140lbs, and i cannot tighten this thing enough to get it a snug fit. everything kind of droops off of me. again, still, it is still completely functional.

All in all, a very good vest, probably for people who are not stick thin.
