Grey Ghost Gear Bandolier

The term bandolier originated in the 1570s, and meant shoulder belt.  The advent of firearms saw the bandolier change from a utilitarian item, into  ammunition carrying attire.  Enter 2012, and  Grey Ghost Gear is bringing the bandolier back with a more modern, and low profile twist.

I?ll point out that I was dubious about the elastic involved, but I figured I would give it a fair test when it arrived.  My test was simple, I pulled four PMAGs out of the back of my cruiser, and hung it over the passenger seat for a shift.  I figured with the way I drive, combined with the magazines hanging in a manner so they would be most likely to fall out, that I would be picking them off my floor within 30 minutes.  It never happened, not only didn?t they fall out, but they didn?t slide or shift at all.  If you saw a city cop driving around with a bandolier, that was me.  After a few days, I became convinced these weren?t going to just fall out regardless of how I drove or what curbs I ran over.

Very cool, but pricey.

Some tacticool youtuber took a shit, made it elastic and called it awesome.

But really, you can ONLY use PMags AND FOR THAT RIDICULOUS PRICE... I'll stick to the surplus bando I got that I can either conceal well enough OR disguise it.  Thanks, but NO THANKS.  Swindle your swill on the airsoft forums! lol

I saw the price, I laughed.

I thought it would make a pretty slick belt.

I started digging though the box-o-webbing.

You could probably go to a sewing shop with some old belts and have one of those made for half that price maybe even less. I know my mom could sew that up in about 3 minutes.

Where is the weapon?  I see no reason to carry around magazines, hidden or otherwise, unless there is a weapon.

I would have no need for a piece of equipment like that. I can hide just as many mags in my pockets & they'd be easier to get too.
