OK well now i will answer everyone. The vest alone, when I bought it, has 5 mag pouches, that are made to hold 2 in each. But these pouches are pretty freaking tight, and I liked the fully loaded look on other vests, but didnt want it to be over exagerated, so I purchased only 4 pouches, or 2x2 pouches and slapped them in the front. The reason for this is because I will be getting 5 star mags, plus 4 metal mags. So if i have a total of 9 pouches for 9 mags that are tight enough to securly hold m4 mags, then it works great. The two other pouches on the sides, are made to hold smoke grenades, I will try to get a real one but i wont use it, and the other pouch will be that m18 bb can, that holds 1500 bbs. True I wont be able to really crouch down and crawl anywhere but most of the time we're taking cover behind wooden boards or cement blocks and suppressing fire. The vest also comes with a built in map/flat things pouch lol At the top i can seperate it open and theres a thin compartment, but I purchased the admin panel with flashlight pouch because it too can open up and store papers/maps/survival mirror. My rig did come with some sort of plating, but it was a thick and slightly hard armor foamy rubber stuff that the guy included with it so its pretty solid and yes it can fit about anyone. Its tightened to the max lol.im about 5'9 weight 145 pounds 33 waist. ENjoy!
