Agent47 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 I've had quite a few lady friends ask me to take them airsofting but I'm not going to give them a hicap gun and send them off in the field. Thing is some them are well-endowed and some aren't but in any case it's clear that most tac vests were not exactly designed for ladies - at least that's how it looks. It looks like chest rigs will be the way to go as I'm not going to try and buy various tactical belts and suspenders for varying waist sizes. I also have an interceptor vest but I wonder if it will cause any discomfort due to its form-fitting design...? So this question goes out to any female players, players with girlfriends who play, and armed forces members with female co-workers - if you wear body armor how does it feel?

L4byr1nth Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Let your friend try it on, perhaps? My g/f prefers my RRV to my CIRAS... Although I think that might be more to do with the colour than anything else Ben. Link to post Share on other sites
tomster Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Yeah get them an RRV with the bib down and let those puppies hang loose! Link to post Share on other sites
Reincarnation... Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Yes? One of my friend tells me that although it is unconformable somethings, she always mans up and dealt with it. I say an RRV should be good for them however. Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Depends on how big their girls are. Link to post Share on other sites
KWP Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Who said they have to wear anything? But "Chest" rig, doesn't that ring a bell? Or that tacticalcorsets thing could be right. Link to post Share on other sites
Moofner Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 My fiance uses a standard web belt and alice setup.... she's about 36C and once I got all her straps setup it was the best option to not crush her chest in a full chest rig. We first tried my tac vest and it was a no go. We also found that because of the ammo pockets and such would dig into her boobs cause they didn't have any flex. So after putting the web belt and riggin on her, I then got her all the pouchs she needed for her web belt from my clothing supply store, and she's well happy now. Considering I usually carry any of the extra gear we'll need it works out quite well. I know more hardcore girls won't accept that, but if they need full breast mobility then the options are going to be limited. That or you'd need to find some of the REALLY big heavy sorta pot bellied guys that wear vests and ask them where they got it. Some of the things I see ppl squeeze into has GOT to be made with bigger chests in mind. And because I'm American and I have no better example of what I'm talking about... I subject you to this.... if he can wear it, no girl should have to worry about their chest getting crushed or being too big..... Link to post Share on other sites

And the testicles thing, well you gotta expect that when "boobs" come into a thread..... Link to post Share on other sites
Azulsky Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 any type of H gear works the best/most in all the times girls have come to play airsoft in my experience Link to post Share on other sites
ErikBobbo Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 I would get a surplus PLCE or something similar. Many countries issue(d) traditional belt webbings, and some of them are pretty awesome. I have a SMERSH, which I love, but it's not the cheapest, and it's AK-specific. PANTAC has some pretty cheap molle-belts with suspenders, and they're pretty adjustable. Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 If the lady is "well gifted" I think the belt+suspenders thing should be more than enough, is she needs to carry more stuff, just add a RRV with the bib up or down as the user feels more comfortable.

Agent Hunk Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 My girlfriend hated wearing a vest but likes to wear a low profile chest and a fanny pack. It's really gonna differ just like it does with guys. Link to post Share on other sites
thewallhitme Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 bewbies!!! /immature surely a webbing system would be better thna a vest, as it completely avoids the whole... boob region, for lack of a better phrase Link to post Share on other sites

my_plague_666 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 i would have thought webbing with side mounted pouches would be most suitable. Link to post Share on other sites
Agent47 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Belts would be nice, but the thing is I can't tell how big their waists are sometimes, I could ask them whenever they bring it up, but I just hope that a size 32 belt can stretch out farther due to a different hip structure...only one of the girls is taller than me (5' 10" compared to me at 5' 9") so suspenders won't be an issue...

Unit 318 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 My girlfriend really likes my OTV. I honestly don't know what everyone is talkin' about. I'm with Seraphim, chicks can wear whatever, they just have to be into the gear, methinks. Link to post Share on other sites

-Angel- Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Something like a TT MAV, an RRV or similar low sitting rigs would work out. Friend of mine has an Israeli "Hagor" Ephod Vest, which usefully Begadi have just released a version of. She gets on with it very well. Shes also used a SORD MFF chestrig in the past. http://begadishop.com/catalog/product_info...roducts_id=3970 Slight problem with this pic is, that guy isn't american: http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/inde...t&p=2192506 Link to post Share on other sites
The lolinator Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 one of my friends uses 2 drop leg platforms for her gear, but she uses a sniper rifle and a ghillie suit so not many mags are needed I think when she uses her m4 she just has a set of webbing Link to post Share on other sites
