The shoot-me-first vest in that photo is an O.G. one from Royal Robbins. I bought it in late '01 or very early '02, before there was a company called "5.11 Tactical"*. The buttons still have the little hiking dude from the famously granola-y outdoor apparel company.
To this day I prefer Royal Robbins for my gun burkhas.
*The Wikipedia article has a good history of how 5.11 Tactical came to be.
