A genuine British Osprey combat vest. Here's a good package deal with some useful pouches. Used.
The package includes something like this:
- Osprey load bearing vest base
- 2 pcs SA80 Ammo Pouches
- 2 pcs Utility Pouches
- AP Grenade Pouch
- Small Utility Pouch
- Medical Pouch
- Water Bottle Pouch
The above list is an example of what you might get. The composition of the pouches might vary a bit. Hey, a genuine Osprey set for this price is a solid deal if you ask us!
The British Osprey system is similar to the US MOLLE system and Interceptor body armor. The vest is meant to be worn over body armor and equipped with the pouches you need where you need them.
The vest itself has two smaller and two larger hidden pockets. The large pocket on the right fits a pistol and two magazines. The back has a small pocket for a map or wallet. You'll find quick-release buckles for a PLCE rucksack side pouch or compatible hydration carriers on the outside.
All pouches and the vest itself come in the Desert DPM camo pattern and NIR protection as usual with modern war stuff.
Osprey vests have been in use in Iraq and Afghanistan by all branches of the British armed forces.
Size info
The vest is designed to be worn over body armor, but it doesn't have to be specifically the Osprey one. If you don't wear armor, you should have a lot of clothes or weight because even when tightened as far as it goes, the circumference around the torso is about 100 cm (39.5"). The sides are adjusted with weaved drawcords, and the length is adjusted at the shoulders. The adjustments were made with bigger fellows in mind.
MOLLE-compatible
The pouch attachment is very similar to the PALS webbing found on MOLLE gear. The measurements are slightly different, but generally, any Osprey stuff goes together with MOLLE either way. The vest is covered with webbing, so you have a lot of room for creative solutions.
Condition
Used British military surplus in perfectly serviceable condition. The vest in the picture is unissued, so expect a somewhat more faded one.
