3. Elements to Consider for an Efficient Tactical Vest Almost all tactical gear, including the tactical vest, should be evaluated for the three basic functions of usability, mobility, and protection. When looking at these functions in a tactical vest, start by trying to understand the key essentials listed below and how these elements come together to serve as an efficient tactical vest. This understanding will simplify your buying process.

4. Molle or Not to Molle? The pre-configured tactical vest has a lower initial cost and is typically lightweight. MOLLE vests are primarily known for their versatility and easy customization. Choosing a pre-configured vest is suitable if you are required, or choose, to carry a single weapon like and AR or AK rifle and your pistol. If your requirements dictate that you need to carry multiple weapon systems, or a more exotic weapon system, a MOLLE vest with interchangeable pouches will be the best option.

5. Sizing For the tactical vest that is sized, you can get various sizes including small (chest size 34-35), medium (38-40), large (42-44), etc. An important consideration when selecting the size of your tactical vest is to keep in mind what you will be wearing your vest over. If you need additional room for clothing and/or equipment under your tactical vest, ensure that you keep this in mind when selecting your size.

6. Durability When buying the right tactical vest, one should consider the environment and location where they are required to wear their vest. For those who need it frequently to crawl around, a durable vest is the best fit. Frequent usage requires a vest which is able to endure all the elements, along with the extreme wear and tear by the wearer. Whether you plan on frequent use of your tactical vest or not, choosing a vest that is durable will serve you best in the long run.

7. Role on the Field Often, most of tactical vest owners are required to act at least partially as a rifleman when out in the field, meaning they will be carrying a rifle as their primary and a pistol as their secondary weapon. In such cases, lightweight vests will help to provide the enhanced usability and mobility required for these duties. The flexibility of a MOLLE vest will also enhance an individuals ability to serve in multiple capacities.

8. Type of Gear on the Vest It is important for buyers to consider the type of gear they will be carrying on their tactical vest. A hydration carrier will be an essential addition when outside for longer periods of time or in hot weather. Utility pouches also provide a way for important items to be kept close at hand. If using a weapon system, magazine pouches are vital for keeping additional ammunition at the ready.
