SADF Assault vest

[jcclimber]

Hi everyone

Been on mfat for the last 2 years(roughly). I apologise beforehand if I've posted this on the wrong thread etc. but I'm deployed in Afghan and don't have too much time. I'm trying to get my hands on an original M83 S. African assault vest that I saw on a UK website in Feb. but being "special", I forgot the site's name. If anyone can help, send me a pm. Cheers in advance.

Seeing as you're serving mate I've done some research. There's a thread on ARRSE discussing the aforementioned South African assault vest. Hope this helps:

I'm guessing you're 40 Cdo? All the best, and keep your head down I hear it's quite hot out there...

Jcclimber here's a link to a site selling the vests and it does say they're the genuine thing not a replica so hopefully it's what you're looking for:

Good luck out there in Afghan and stay safe!
