Review:
I got this Pod system at local sporting goods store for 25$ (inclduing to pods). I was really excited about play with it because it was my first pod system. But whan i got out on the field i was i little disapointed because evan though i had only 2 pods in it and no tank it bounced a LOT. Now i'm only 5'6' --and 120 lbs but still it should not have bounced as bad as i did when i played. also when your run'n though the woods it catches on thorns and branches. that can get sort of annoying.
Conclusion:
Great if your a newbie but other that its not that great.

Review:
I bought this pack for 15 dollars with the pods filled. I wanted a pack witha belt attached so that I wouldn't have to spend money on a comfort belt. This pack was a friend of mine's and he recently ordered a lager harness, so I offered to buy this. I liked imediately, but then later realized that the pods sticking out of the side would probably make me more suseptable to pack hits. I haven't played with it yet but I want to see if this is true or not. It is considerably larger than a harness that goes around your back.
Conclusion:
Good, not great. If you are worried about pack hits dont get this.
Co2 tank holder, it is difficult to remove & replace co2 tank while wearing.
Review:
I have been playing with for quite a while just sticking a pod or 2 in my BDU pant pocket. I finally decided to get a pack so I could stay in the game longer. I tired this pack loading it up with 4 pods (empty) and a 20 oz Co2 (full) in the store I bought it from. Without suspenders it fit well and felt comfortable. The pods were easy to acess and their horizontal positions kept them close to my body and didn’t allow for them to bang on my body. The pack when loaded fits comfortably, I found that in order to keep the waist belt from slipping that I had to take the tail of the web strap and feed it back through the buckle, it hasn’t slipped since doing that. I took a pair of my old combat “H” suspenders and clipped them into the suspender loops on the pack it helped when putting on the pack you don’t have to worry about the pack being to low on your waist. I found that if you do carry a co2 tank on in the holder you first need to tighten the sliding web strap around the tank then cross the Velcro straps over the web strap. The co2 will say in place and won’t flop around. However when you do this you can’t just reach around and pull out your tank you need a teammate to do it for you or you have to pull the pack off.
Conclusion:
If you want a good pack that can hold a decent amount of balls for a low price this is the way to go. I always use suspenders with my equipment but that is my preference. Given that the co2 tank is difficult to pull out on your own and the adjustment strap will sip unless doubled over I cannot give this product a 10.

Bulky falls off tank falls out, sags
Review:
Well. first off, this pack is nothing special. it does the job of a pack but nothing more, tha fact that it carrys a c02 is nice because it allows you to use a remote, but this pack has flaws, it falls off sags and c02 may come out, also its very wide on ur sides it gets in the way if ur tryin to get through a very small space.

Review:
This harness gets the job done. Its light weight. holds enough balls. There isn't a lot i can say about it. Its a harness you put your extra paintballs in. There really isn't much else to say. Java is a great brand! This is a breat harness for scenario ball.
When I was just I beginner I wanted to just play. But as I kept running out of paint (thous getting let-up). So I decided to go to a panitballing store and decided to get a paintball pack. I found this pack and like it. I also like the price of it (15$). Since that day I almost never ran out of paint in the middle of the game. This is a very nice pack and I would recommend it to beginners.
Conclusion:
I give this pack a 10-10 because its a great beginner pack.

Review:
I had never used a harness system before this one, and since it was one of the cheaper ones at my pro shop, I decided to give it a whirl. I was impressed with the comfort of this system, especially with the option for suspenders. After experimentation, I decided I like wearing my pods a little lower on my hips, and it wouldn't have been possible without the suspenders. Definitely a plus for me. The spots for the tubes are secured very well with velcro, but for the first few uses, the velcro seemed very stiff and took some effort to get undone. After the first three uses or so, the velcro got easier, but was still stiff enough to hold my pods without me being afraid of them falling out. The tank holster, on the other hand, seemed kind of chincy and didn't hold my 12 oz CO2 tank very securely. But then, it's designed for people with a remote line, and I don't use one, so maybe that makes a difference, I don't know. My biggest complaint with this harness is that it sticks out to the sides a lot. One of the biggest frustrations for me was being completely behind a bunker, and forgetting about my pods, and getting shot in one of them because they were sticking out too far to the side. But, since I knew that before I bought it, I can't complain too much, since it's partially my own fault.
Conclusion:
If you use a remote or like to carry an extra tank with you in case you run out mid-game, this is a great harness. It carries paint well, so you never have to worry about losing your balls in the midst of a game. However, if you don't need the extra CO2 tank, I would suggest springing for a vertical pod pack just for the sake of keeping your profile smaller.
It does it job . My friend has one . And for only 19.99 canadian its a steal . Im gonna buy one soon . The harness should be vert because they are much easyer to use but this does its job and thats all i could ask for . I didn't know that this is made by kingman.
I just went paintballing for my second time today with my own equipment, and this is my second time using the harness. It is vital to have a harness and pods at my field because you play 2 round each map, and have no time to go back to rec area between rounds. This harness is awesome! It came with my Imagine package on ebay off PBDEALS4U. It is great, the pods it came with are great and light but the thing I loved the most is the space for your tank, like when u using a remote, or it can be used to hold anything else. I use it to hold a water bottle, so in between rounds or during a round I just wipp out the water, slip it under my helmet, and I am replenished. And my mask comes fairly off my face so i don't even have to lift my mask and risk my eyes. But you can also carry anything else u want with you during a game. Also, an awesome thing is how it is designed so the pods come more to your sides so youj don't have to reach around your back, and figit to get the pods out. Overall it is awesome and the price is right. So go out and buy it!
