I wouldn’t spend my hard earned money on anything made by Barska. Probably ok for airsoft.

Buy once, cry once.
Get an Esstac, Tactical Tailor, Crye Precision, or London Bridge Trading (LBT) Company. There may be a few other high quality companies, but I would look at these 4 first. I have an Esstac along with pouches and other items from Tactical Tailor. I've seen the other two companies products in the flesh and they're great. SOF loves their LBTs.

Looks like a cheap introduction to a chest rig in thinking about buying Condor I wouldn't go to war with a Condor plate carrier. It's fine for Airsoft or SHTF. But some of my Soldiers use them and they're not meant for 24/7 field use, at least from what I have seen. For Made In China gear they are actually pretty good...just not exceptional. You can only wear one plate carrier, make it a great one.

Take a look at the Shellback plate carriers. The Shield is a very well made and affordable option for something that isn't airsoft level kit. https://www.shellbacktactical.com/plate ... e-carrier/

I’ve become a big fan of the Ferro Concepts stuff. The Slickster is a pretty sweet carrier.
