Most of the vests they have there say what they are on the tag. They have many vests for many uses, and since they sell surplus, it's hard to say what they do or don't have at any given time.

I was in there yesterday. They do have a bunch of vests, and most are suitable for airsoft, but they're not real high quality, and they're anywhere from $69-$99. Just like real life, you get what you pay for. Call me a gear snob, but I won't settle for a half-assed reproduction - I buy the real deal. I paid a little over $130 (all in + shipped) for a real-deal Soviet-Issue chest rig for my AK setup, and it's built 10X better than anything at UAS.

If you are able (and comfortable) buying on EBAY, you can get a good deal on a lot of stuff. Do a search for "MOLLE" or "LBV" or "Eagle Industries".

If you are already a user of ASC, you can find a LOT of good used gear at a decent savings there - quality names like Tactical Tailor, SOE, Eagle, and others.

Other Canadian sources include:

http://www.russiancombatgear.com/ <-- the place to buy from if you shoot an AK
