About Tactical Vests
The WEQ Tactical Molle Airsoft Vest Paintball Combat Training Vest Adjustable (Color : Natural) by WEQ works well for airsoft. Airsoft vests, plate carriers, and tactical loadout equipment are often used for carrying gear on the airsoft field. These vests and carriers make it simple for players to keep control of their gear and easily get around the battle zone while having everything they may need to win more missions. They also have a tacticool operator status appeal to them and give protection to player’s bodies from inbound airsoft BBs.
Airsoft tactical vests generally have lots of pockets, pouches, and MOLLE accessory panels. This is a balancing act because it is a mix of packing what you need in the field but not too much. Stay away from carrying so much gear that it weighs you down or prevents you from walking easily across the airsoft field. Some frequently picked items in a basic airsoft tactical vest loadout include the following: Extra airsoft weapon magazines, sidearms like handguns or shotguns, additional airsoft BBs, red rags, protein bars, water , radios, weapon cleaning kits, and Leathermans.
WEQ Vest Protection Levels
Tactical airsoft vests like the WEQ Tactical Molle Airsoft Vest Paintball Combat Training Vest Adjustable (Color : Natural) offer a couple of layers of additional fabric to aid in cushioning the effect of incoming airsoft BBs. Some vests have more than others and some vests include tough armor plates or ABS plastic scales. These airsoft vests have extra cushioning and shielding, but almost every vest will offer some defense from inbound airsoft BBs.
One challenge faced by playing with thick vests with rows of magazine pouches and a lot of equipment attached to them is that team players can not feel their hits very well. In these cases, team players need to listen for their hits and call themselves out if their vest or gear is hit by inbound airsoft BBs. Players should follow the airsoft field or match guidelines.
Types of WEQ Airsoft Vests
There are a number of distinct types of vests and load-bearing equipment worn by players in airsoft. As a classification, an airsoft vest is a general term used to describe anything participants tactically don on the upper half of their bodies and holds airsoft gear.
The airsoft vest types include pre-made tactical airsoft vests, tactical MOLLE vest platforms, airsoft plate carriers and armor holders, modular chest rigs and tactical half vests, and tactical load-bearing vests (LBV). The WEQ WEQ Tactical Molle Airsoft Vest Paintball Combat Training Vest Adjustable (Color : Natural) falls into one of these categories. Learn about the types below.
Pre-Made Tactical Airsoft Vests
Pre-made airsoft vests are among one of the most standard forms of airsoft vests. These vests come ready-to-play out of package and are a few of the cheaper vests offered while still maintaining good quality and toughness. Many brands produce pre-made vests including Condor with their Elite Tactical Vest, BLACKHAWK! with their Omega Tactical Vest, and Classic Army with their Tactical Cross Draw Vest. Pre-made tactical airsoft vests are a good find if you are playing airsoft on a tight budget.
These vests are instantly functional and come with sewn in magazine pouches, pouches which hold airsoft BBs, and other pockets. The magazine pouches are unique to the vest models and normally are available in M4 or AK47 designs. With pre-made vests, game players can often attach a U.S. GI military web belt to the bottom of the vest. Here they can add things like dump pouches, drop leg holsters, and other belt pouches and accessories. The airsoft vest back has MOLLE loop attachments for a CamelBak or other things like LED light sticks or a shotgun scabbard.
Toughness of Pre-Made Vests
Since these airsoft vests are factory built, they are well made with strong stitching and will normally last for a very long time. We have seen a few of these vests worn for so long the colors start to fade, however they still serve their gear carrying purpose. Lots of airsoft team players start out with one of these vests, resell it in the future, and upgrade to a more custom vest system.
Pre-Made Vest Models and Types
Try to find the right type of pre-made vest you want. Some have integrated magazine pouches for AR-15/ M4 magazines while others have AK-47 magazine sizing. Make sure the vest you are purchasing will work for holding your specific airsoft weapon type magazines. Various designs of pre-made airsoft vests are also offered. They include the following. Magazine carrier vest setups which include 6x AK-47 to 12x M4 magazine slots (depending on size of magazine inserted). Cross-draw handgun holster combinations with a 3x or 6x magazine pouch on the opposite side. Rifle shotgun tactical vest pouch setups with shotgun shell loops inside pouches. EOD vests (explosives ordnance detection) with many admin pouches. Grenadier vests with a lot of grenade pockets for M203 shells.
Airsoft MOLLE Tactical Vests
A more advanced and personalized airsoft vest is the tactical MOLLE airsoft vest design. These modular vests enable each pouch to be moved and placed individually based upon the specific setup airsoft game players and tactical operators require. The MOLLE webbing uses a hook and loop strap system which permits gun magazine pouches, radio pouches, medical IAK pouches, utility pouches, and weapon holsters to be installed anywhere on the vest where the MOLLE panels are located. The resulting numerous different combos, positions, and orientations mean tactical operators to pick the customized MOLLE pouch set up for the specific role they are playing (like breacher, grenadier, SAW gunner, etc) or mission they are running.
The personalized appearance and feel of MOLLE airsoft vests are exceptional. The tactical vest platform and pouches are normally sold individually or in packages which makes them more expensive than pre-made airsoft vests.
Airsoft Versus Real World MOLLE Gear
When searching for MOLLE vests, bear in mind airsoft businesses make replicas of real military tactical vests. These airsoft knock-off pouches and vests run a fraction of the costs of the real equipment employed by militaries, Special Forces (like Rangers, Naval Special Warfare Development ‘Dev Group’, and MARSOC) and other special ops units.
How MOLLE Accessories Work
The MOLLE system is an acronym meaning Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment. This tactical equipment system describes pouches, panels, and straps which employ MOLLE straps. The three parts of the system are MOLLE pouches, straps, and panels which are put together to create the MOLLE airsoft loadout. MOLLE panels are the base seen on airsoft vests. They feature a series of loops that are employed to hold pouches to the best with straps. The MOLLE straps are usually made of nylon with a snap and are threaded through the MOLLE panel loops and the similarly found loops on pouches. The MOLLE pouches have a MOLLE loop panel on the back of the pouch which allows straps to be securely connected to MOLLE panel loops.
Putting Your Kit Together
The entire MOLLE system comes together as operators pick the pouches they require for an airsoft vest loadout or mission, weave the MOLLE straps through the loops on the pouches and vest panels, and secure the snaps on the straps to keep the pouches in place. The result is a super customized airsoft vest with the look of operator status.
Airsoft Tactical Vest Plate Carriers
Airsoft tactical vest plate carriers look like standard MOLLE vests and lots of these vests also have plate carrier compartments and elements. This makes it simple to use and change MOLLE pouches in between vest plate carriers and standard MOLLE vests These tactical vests have internal pouches to hold authentic or reproduction ballistic level III3A plates or ballistic rifle plates. Airsoft game players use these plate carrier vests for an increased coolness aspect and can even run legitimate or imitation ballistic plates and panels to simulate a practical loadout or battle kit.
Airsoft Modular Chest Rigs and Slicks
Tactical modular chest rig vests typically just have front and back panels that can hold ceramic SAPI plates. They look like plate carrier vests and also have MOLLE panels on the front and back for MOLLE pouches. These tactical vests are varied from MOLLE vests due to the fact that they are more low-profile and can be used over or under other clothing like jackets, uniforms, vests, and bulky garments relatively easily. The side straps on modular chest rigs also adjust more than basic plate carrier vests. Slicks are simply modular chest rig vests but without the MOLLE attachments which makes them slick or smooth. These sort of airsoft vests are less useful for carrying equipment given that they do not have pouches. They are frequently used for props as civilian role players or tactical kit builds for a specific period imitating a historical military unit that employed them like the Navy Seals.
Tactical Half Vests and Gunfighter Harnesses
Airsoft half vests or gunfighter vests fall into this classification. Half vests are half of a tactical vest with a row of internal pouches in the front. They come in handy to employ and can be put on quickly in the course of a gun battle hence the name. They generally have capacities for 6 M4 magazines in the front (or similarly sized weapon magazines) with MOLLE or taco pouches in the front for handgun magazines, admin pouches, medical equipment, and other add-on pouches. The harness is kept in position by a set of shoulder straps and the back of the vest is open. This type of airsoft vest can also be used over top of other kinds of gear and vests.
Tactical Load-Bearing Vests (LBVs)
Tactical load-bearing vests are a few of the most standard vests to employ for airsoft. These airsoft tactical vests feature 6 integrated M4 magazine pouches with 2 grenade pouches. The vest straps for the shoulders and sides adapt to small and big-sized airsoft players which make this vest really versatile.
