carllehot · May 11th, 2010, 19:05

I'm wondering were I can find a repro or a real Vietnam ERA Flak Jacket that US soldier used in Vietnam ?

I want one so badly !

What size ya need?
Sarge's Army Surplus has one (real one)

carllehot · May 11th, 2010, 19:24

Medium or Large ! But do you know what's the size of the medium ?

panzergrenadier · May 11th, 2010, 19:31

I believe Medium is a 40 Chest... Large would be a 42.
I know the one there is a large.

My cousin has one available. Its size is Large, will fit a Medium no problem. Its real, been fielded, has actual repairs done to it.

Whats your budget for one, your looking at I think $125 if I remember his asking price.

Check out www.mooremilitaria.com for Vietnam era and repro gear.

Also, US Soldiers(Army) didn't really wear flak jackets, maybe those in camps, but not the guys going on patrol. USMC Infantry, etc wore them though.

My chest is 44, my flak is a medium, just barely fits
