Product details
Product description

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.

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.

Wow. This just arrived and I'm impressed. I got 9 pouches with mine, not 13, but WTF...even if the vest wasn't included, €40 for 9 pouches is a great deal. With the vest, it's almost a steal. My stuff was obviously used, but not heavily / badly. Noticed some desert dust on the buckles, and two of the pouches had crosses painted on the lids, one red (obviously for medical) and the other black...not sure what the black cross means/meant. No matter. Vest is rugged. Seems like it would be a great "around the campsite" vest to store commonly needed items in or on, as you go about your work. Also, it might be a good improvised exercise vest...put some weight in the pouches, attach them, and get busy. Or you could put weighted bags filled with sand or lead shot in the spacious side pockets. Or you could attach elastic bands / bungees to the MOLLE loops and do squats or lunges or whatever the fuck. Some have said you can dye the vest and pouches, but I would just get some textile paint in colors I like and paint my own patterns on there. More time consuming but more customizable that way. Glad I bought this rig. No regrets, would recommend.
