What harnesses are you guys using and which setup do you feel is best? (just trying to get some other peoples opinions here)

any redz packs are great. I personally use flex 700(4x 150 mounted to the right.

I use a Redz FT-700<br>
(4 x 150 that can be taken out to both sides - kinda looks the same like the JT slam-pack)<br><br>
I like it pretty much.

I love my Unique 8+1. I run remote. It's older so it has 4x100 on each side, and a pouch for my Nitro in the middle.

When I ran remote I used a Redz Flextech 4+1 with 2x150 horizontally on each side with a center pouch for tank.

But once I got a good drop forward and ditched the remote, I went with a plain ole Redz comfort pack 4V. Though the flextech pack was cheap and served its purpose, the comfort packs are a real step up. They completely hug your back.

Can't wait to get a dimension pack next!

I'm now using a Redz Dimension 3.2 pack. It's the most comfortable pack I've ever used. It holds 3 150 tubes, plus had loops for 2 more. I used a Unique 4+1 for years, but the Redz pack/belt was one of the best investments I've made recently.

I use my nice new Dye Attack Pack (5 vert.), and I must say it's the nicest harness out there. Even for a 5, it is small, light, and comfortable. But (like all Dye crap) its expensive. But well worth it in my opinion.

I use a Redz 5.4 dimension..........BEST PACK MADE EVER!

I can carry 750 rounds when I dont need that much paint, but whenever my team makes finals, I just pull out the elastic straps and bam, I got 1350 rounds into my harness. Great pack.

DYEs, Extreme Rage, and 32* are also nice as well.....But if ya have the cash, get a Redz comfort system.

The jacko harnesses are pretty nice. I have a 4 vertical with 2 140s in the center and 2 100s on the sides.got it on ebay with the pods for 25.00. they cost around 40 i think. :cool:

JACKO!!! Most definetly the best I have ever tried, besides Unique, which are very nice too, but I like Jacko for the low price, and the amazing performance they give. Redz are alright, but you have to buy the belt and the pack seperate, so I don't think they are worth the money, but Unique are very nice, and the Blackstars are pretty cool too. I have a Jacko Freestlye 3 pod, and it is amazing for front play. Yeah, the Jacko packs are about $40, if I rememeber correctly.

Eagle, I'm a SOE user myself, if you like the Blackhawk mods, you'll LOVE the SOE modular vests.;)

REDZ PP-200 and UNIQUE SLAM 4 PAK are my harnesses. Love them both, but my fav lies with the REDZ.

I have a Jacko 4 pack, and its real nice! Im thinking about getting a new pack because I'd like a horizontal pod harness. And maybe just 3 pods.

ENDO!

Special Operations Equipment, is IMHO, one of the best manufacturers in Tac Wear. Here's the link: http://www.soegear.com/

Most Tac Vests can be use for Paintball with nada problem, 100rd Pods fit the best. To fit the 150rd Pods, you need to do alittle minor strap/buckle adjustments etc...

I don't normally use Tac Gear for Paintball, but because I'm in Singapore, Police Law state that I HAVE to use a chest protector.;(

Kinda useless if you ask me, cause most hits I get are on the neck, gogs and extremeties..but then again, no one bothered to ask me...

Rather than use the JT CP mods, I'm using a combination of REDZ and Tac Wear from BlackHawk. That IMHO figured, would be a better choice for me than the JT CP 'FEMALE Only' mods. Plus with the added pouches, I can carry extras...

The 'Tac Gear CP' mod I'm using now, in addition to the REDZ PP-200:

The Vest goes on first followed by the harness...FYI.

The mod I want to get:

If ya interested in getting SOE gear, gimme a buzz. I'll put you to the best guy [Brad aka Lightfighter] in the business.

However, quality doesn't come cheap, you're lookin at $290 a vest. :)

Recon0321man has got some for sale though, at $250 a pop. A very good deal! Check out the classifieds!
