natw1n Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) I'm looking to buy this used vest but for the life of me I can't determine what make/model this is. The owner said that they had bought off another op and doesn't know what it is. I did some googling and found that the Master series vest looks extremely similar but just not quite the same. Is this a knock off vest? The socket block setup is also kind of weird, I've never seen that kind of setup before. Just trying to do my due diligence before buying this backup vest. *edit* Also I can't seem to find a way to change my username into my real name. I signed up back in 2015 through facebook connect (hence the username) but haven't visited the forum in a couple of years so I think the new forum software may have permanently set my name. I don't see a way of changing it through account settings. Do I have to message a mod/admin? Thanks everyone! https://i.imgur.com/loGYFhv.jpg Edited March 3, 2020 by natw1n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Berg-Pedersen Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Could it be an early Glidecam vest? It was the first thing that hit me when I saw that “socket block”.. But why do you want to buy such an old and “damaged” vest? What rig do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Porter Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 It looks like a modified Ultra Vest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Peter Abraham Posted May 30, 2020 Premium Members Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Dunno about the vest- John Porter is right it looks like a modified Ultra Vest. Then again, I know nothing about that brand named above. Tim Tyler is our board Admin. I'd guess he might be able to change your name.

Well I just a have a Tiffen Scout and looking to add onto my package and set myself up for a future upgrade for a new arm and sled that's all. I'm an extremely frugal guy and there are not many ops around my neck of the woods and even less willing to part with their stuff, so this maybe a "damaged" looking vest, but for the price he's selling it's a steal.
