Thought I would share a gear pic. M98A vest. Manufactured by Mile Dragic 1999. This would of been in the Kosovo conflict. Around the time NATO started their bombing campaign .A nasty conflict thats been forgotten.Terrible tragedy of human war crimes by all sides. The Albanians were big targets .Its level 3A stand alone. It has the molded mag pockets . Quite heavy without plates. It has all the soft plates . except someone stuffed in double groin plates . This is one I recently acquired to replace a well worn one. When I bought my first one, they were hard to find and the condition was never that great but now they’re fairly easy to get your hands on .

Around 200 shipping is the killer though . Its expensive getting things out of the area. The shipper had to get a export permit. Just depends which country its coming out of. This had to go through customs traveling through 4 countries. So it takes a while longer depending on each country it passed through.

NATO decided on the bombing campaign. especially after the news caught allot of scenes of open warfare on the civilians. The most famous being news footage of a young couple shot by a sniper in the middle of the street.Quite sad. But became a point of NATO to answer by force.

Great Collectible or Museum Piece. It is my size, but I wouldn't actually wear it - I already get looks because of my firearm choices.

Nice! I picked up a Mile Dragic vest a few years ago, great quality. Not sure of the age of mine

Nice

Always wanted one of these and the East German Paratrooper version.

Nice. Were the other pockets engineered and intended for specific items, or all-purpose?

Nice piece of kit, I remember those being all over ebay for sub-$50 shipped 15 years or so ago. Some of the pouches were picky with what type of 762 AK mags would fit in them.
