@Goldn24k I have to disagree. I have seen the 5.11 and this vest is built better, never mind this vest also has a water bladder that the 5.11 doesn't. In any case to each his own, what's good for some is maybe not good to others. Thanks for the comment.
When there are so many fine US Made Manufacturers selling Molle Vests for near same price or less with a Life Time Guarantee, there is really no reason why anyone should purchase 5.11 made in Vietnam or who knows where in Asia. I don’t know what it is about 5.11, but if you love it, get it, but don’t forget our fine US Manufacturers who may have something you like. I went with US Made London Bridge Trading and Eagle Molle Tactical Vests with a Life Time Guarantee as a throwaway base and am happy
@Soldier957 I would have to say 1 of the 5.11 vest and then add a bladder if it has a spot for one or get a nice camelbak back pack. BUT by the time you are done, it will cost the same and be very close to the same weight. What's nice about this vest is the extra padding you get for your back and that padding transfers "cold" from your water and or ice in the bladder to keep you cooler in hot weather. Me? In Florida, the extra weight is worth it when that bladder is full of cold water. Good luck
@MrSteve65 HUGE thanks for that reply! Very valuable to me! I guess it's fairly light when compared to a backpack. I'm planning to use it around the camp once I've dumped my backpack. Just to carry with me the smaller things like a blade, first aid kit, water and the like. Just hope I can wear it under my backpack while hiking to my destination. Thanks again!
@StrykerKnights I like it, but I wouldn't give it a light weight compared to some of the other vest, but it is build very well for that given weight. For one, it has very nice padding for your back, keeps your spine off the water bladder and I believe that pad transfer the coldness of the water to your back to keep you cool. I am sure you will enjoy it.
@MrSteve65 Aw, that sucks. Thanks in advance if you can post a vid. I heard that the motorola atrix can run like 8 hotspots at once, but that's probably a base $150 pricetag per month. Take Care.
@wolfcookieo9 I agree it cost some and I had the same feeling, but... Any vest I was going to get, I also was going to get a water reservoir for it as well. Having the res with it, it more or less was a even deal for me buying it this way, instead of going say with a 5.11 vest then buying Camelbak res for it. Thanks for the comment and watching..
@wolfcookieo9 It is kind of pricey, but it is WELL worth the money. That is if you pay full price it is worth it. I got mine used but in PERFECT condition (Except it didn't come with the reservoir which Camelbak gives you) for $80 on Ebay. That and Camelbak's BFM 500 backpack are some of the best pieces of gear I have ever owned. You would be SHOCKED to see How much gear you can pack on that Delta 5.
I have placed a few orders from botac...dont expect to get any customer service, but what I ordered did arrive in about a week and I saved a lot of money.
@TheGearJunkies It sure has the looks, maybe I will go out with the wife on the town wearing. I bet you anything I will get the looks over the wife, lol.
@Verilioness Not a bad looker. A bit more MOLLE toward the shoulders would have been nice, but it will work, I like it... By the way, Nutn was right, it does have some weight to it. Thanks again for your help and stopping by.
@TMHonfire102 What do you do, TMH? Check my page every day and write out a stalking schedule? I have had a lot of complaints about how crazy you are. Keep doing my work for me, lil guy. I don't have to tell anyone you're a whack job...you prove it for me everyday.
wow... IS Nutnfancy all your gods or something live your life and quit referring to your self as "tNper's" he endorses products because he is paid to do so. I like some of his vids but he is a walking breathing commercial.
@famasdan Your words could be true and if they are that is cool with me, no reason for a person not to make some money... I mean after all, I wont stop watching TV because the channels are getting paid by advertisements. Thanks for stopping by and for your comment.
@MrSteve65 i like your video by the way it just bothers me seeing people relating their interests to some guys "Project" they should be your own views you shouldn't have to label your self as any group to hold them is all.
@famasdan Thank you and I do understand your point, I really do. But in this video's case, I had nothing to go with and I was looking for a go or no go and "TNP" (Nutn) was the only person I knew (youtube or in person) that had some type of hands on with this vest (in one of his vids he talked about Camelbak)... The time of response to my question did deserve credit in my eyes. Thanks again for the comment.
really good vid bro, great amount of info in the title discription. I totaly agree on the outstanding help Nutn' and esp Verilioness give us TNPer's, i had a question which they both answered very quickly and it must have been around the same time as ur inquiry, as Nutn' was flying, just outstanding. I cant believe the cheap prices you got your excellent kit for! (just not avaible here in Aussie land ..grrr) i love how you put top notch photos at the end of the vid. take care bro.
@TheDishD Thanks... I sure do agree 100% about TNP and grew. Sorry you can't get the deals Down Under, I feel for you, really. I guess I am trying to make up for the "noobie" videos with better photos at the end. Thanks again for the great comments.
@MrSteve65 No prob's bro, and btw your vids are far frm "noobie", its hard to get infront of a camera and present things, but you are doing a great job keep them coming! tc bro.
I really like Camelbak's molle loops. I don't know what they use to make them, but they feel really solid.
