"Crossdraw Vest LBE Option" by Nutnfancy, Pt 1
This is Part 1 of a 3-part series by Nutnfancy reviewing a tactical Crossdraw vest as a Load Bearing Equipment (LBE) option. The reviewer emphasizes a systems-based approach to LBE selection, prioritizing anticipated defensive scenarios like WROL, combat operations, or law enforcement situations. While acknowledging limitations for intense firefights, the Crossdraw vest is presented as a cost-effective, versatile, and lightweight grab-and-go solution for civilian 'sheepdogs' and some military/LE users. Benefits include integrated pouches, adjustable fit, and comfort, while downsides involve slower handgun access and lack of body armor integration. Brands like BlackHawk and TacForce are mentioned as suitable options. The reviewer assigns a high 'Nutnfancy Likeability Scale' score of 9 out of 10.
