Premium Members Tom Wills Posted January 11 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 11 This vest formerly belonged to Larry McConkey, so as you can imagine it’s been through a lot, but it’s in quite good shape after some repairs, and ready to go out and serve an operator as a great first vest, or a backup front mount vest for a back mounted operator. This has been modified quite a bit - the upper chest plate has been bent to contact the shoulders better, the main vest spar has been bent to account for torso shapes, and the main spar of the vest has been moved to the outside so that the socket block can be mounted lower than it normally can on a Master vest. It also has a new larger upper chest pad, and I just replaced the upper shoulder buckles with new 2” Fastex buckles. It also incorporates upgraded ratchets for all the other straps - 2 ratchets for the waist and chest straps. Overall, a solid vest for a great price, and it’s pretty cool to think about what shots this vest must have done. Highly prefer NYC/NJ/PA local sales as vest fitting is an art form - happy to let any operators in that area try it on and see if they like it before committing! Asking $1500 USD, plus shipping if applicable. Contact me at willsvideo@gmail.com if you're interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Bob Beresh Posted January 12 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 12 Saw this on the Facebook group, and I agree. If there were a SteadiMuseum, this vest and its history would make one heck of a display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
