What vest is this and where can I get it?

Hollywood made it up to look cool and a real one would be functionally quite useless.

Why the fuck did I know it was going to be that vest before I clicked on the thread?

Take a good look at that thing and tell me where you would mount any MOLLE pouches in any useful manner and amount, or what protection it would afford you, if any, were you to somehow figure out a way to mount plates to it?

Cool looking vest, no doubt, but ultimately impractical unless you plan on only carrying handcuffs and a few revolver speed loaders, as shown above.

Closest thing that comes to mind, in all seriousness, is this BDS blank split front rig:



It's this rig here http://www.bdstacticalgear.com/pd-bds-tactical-modular-vehicle-operators-chest-rig.cfm

Just keep all the options as "PALS webbing/PALS webbing w/ loop" and for the back, "Modular back."

At least with that you can mount a full fighting load to it what with pouch configurations/positioning and the like.

Looks like a sweet new QD shoulder strap system


(The shoulder straps connect to the front of the rig via the middle speedloader pouch's flap on either side)

as stated its a Hollywood vest and would be tactically useless. Worry more about function and less about looks when it comes to a armor carrier.

Good flick.  And why do you guys keep throwing up pics of Dwayne, his arms don't touch his sides.

Carano looks much hotter in her rig (OK, the Rock is in the pic too, but his arms are in closer proximity to his torso).
