"enhanced" versus original USGI LBV

[dunkel]

What are the differences?

Thanks.

As far as i can remember, they are pretty much set-up the same, only the enhanced version used better material.

I dont recommend either one, they are way out dated.

they ARE out dated.
the "enhanced" has the mag pouches at an angle rather than straight up and down...

The enhanced also has fishnet-style fabric for the vest, while the original LBV uses typical nylon fabric.

I hate 'em both. They rub my nipples raw.

Are they outdated like an AK is outdated

Seriously, I know MOLLE gear is the heat and for good reasons, but one CAN get by with last season gear too, and for alot less money.

I just got me a BHI USGI LBV copy cause I wanted one and I prefer shoulder harnesses over vests (the ones I've tried on) and the one chest rig I have. I don't know why but I like to keep the bulk of my gear on waist level.

I could only fit 4 mags in the old one, but the new one i could get 6, as the one of the pouches on each sides holds two and the other one, one.
