I can't really say if it's good or not without a pic. Do you know what kind it is? Or even better a link. But it should be fine. As long as it's in good condition then I'd go for it.

I'd say go for it if the remote is added with it. Camo on the harness doesn't matter too much. It doesn't make that much of a difference. I don't guess it would hurt, though. Here are some links if you decide not to get that one. These are a lot cheaper and one of them still comes with the pods, but the remote line isn't included.

if your runnin remote air, and are a woodsball guy, you might want to go the extra mile and get a tactical vest, especially one that has a slot to hold your tank, that way your tank isny around your waist wegoing you down, have one mounted on your back, by your shoulders, it helps alot with lightening your load and providing a more balanced set-up

Bingo. If you play woods alot, get a vest. Better in the long run.

get a vest. The Viper South African assault vest is ideal you can get about 500 balls in it with other pockets for bangs and smoke also has a pouch on the back to hold air they go for about £30 Exc p&p (not sure how much in dollars) they are really comfy too.

 Armotechuk have a new vest that is really good holds 1050 balls (lots!) and has a pouch for air and several others for wee bangers and such. it costs about £45 gbp exc p&p and im not sure if they ship to U.S or if Armotech U.S do them ill have a look then get back to you.

scroll down and its the Armotechuk vest. only vest you will ever need

(it comes in DPM also)

I dont think they were including a remote line in the price rather a pouch to use a bottle remotely. But maybe im just too synical.

Be advised - you don't want to end up humping a bunch of trash around - works best if you keep it simple, light and maintain a slim profile.

Try keeping things on your front and out to the side,  (6 inches under your arm pits) rather than your back or chest. That way you can lay flat and on your back without a boot or elevated profile.

thats only considering hes belly crawlin around. if hes doin anythin else, he will have those pod wings and get hit there, ALOT, keep it on your back, but dont stack it very high, or youll have a camel hump. the armotech pack might be overkill

After reading what I posted where did you get Pod Wings from? Keeping gear in the front sides slightly under his arms won't allow any exposure beyong the natural form of his body.
