I want to get a new harness because my other one is crap. Where can I get a light, good one that doesn't shake around when you run and comes with a belt?

PJ packs are pretty good

Bleh...$37.99 for a 2+1 is too expensive...but it is a nice harness.

If your field allows just take ur backpack onto the field, its what i do, i can carry as many pods as i want and an extra tank if i run out.... thats just me, and backpacks are more comfortable

That sounds like a good idea, but how do you manage to get that out so quick? I picture someone throwing it off their back, unzipping it, taking out the pod, re zipping, throwing back on back...sounds troublesome..

yea thats the only problem with a backpack, takes me atleast 20-30 seconds to refil, luckily most of its unzipping which i can do with 1 hand while im keeping an eye out for crafty bunkeres, my position also helps me, i play wild card on my team and i go to the back alot so i refil throw it on my back and see who needs help

A pack is a VERY important piece of paintball equiptment, that can drastically affect how you play. Dont skimp out on this, spend the 50 dollars, get a Redz Dimension or an ER Bullet pack, those are the 2 best imo on the market. I've heard that Mantis packs are really nice, but I havn't been fortunate enough to try one yet. But I have tried the ER and Redz, both are just plain awesome. They dont shake when I run, which is a rarity since most packs do. Just great.

My Paintball Junkies pack is great. It's nice and padded, and iand not to mention that it's really nicely made. One size fits all, my friend.

I play front for my team, and I got a 3+2. I know, I know, should of got the 2+1, but it was half off, I couldn't resist!

I say get a JT Slammer or a Redz Ft-700, there both very similar and you can stick them on your back. I play front and I'm getting one of them, for the same reason, as that my first pack, which I now sold, was a real piece of crap.

if you aren't willing to spring for the 70-80 dollars for a redz pack and belt, actionvillage has a harness that looks like it would suit your needs. personally, i use a 4pod dye harness. i have to assume that with the weight of the pods in your pack every harness is going to bounce around a little when you run, but the dye is really comfortable. well i just looked it up and its a 4+3 pack including tubes for 40 bucks. good deal if you ask me.
