Tactical vest VS assasult vest
is there any difference in the two in terms of protection or are they both the same but just look different?

i think the tact vest helps against small cal guns becuse been shot three times in the chest by a 45 and lived to have vengence so i would go for the tact vest

did it damage the condition of the vest?

I don't think tactical vests are in the game right now.

Anyways, apparently assault vests have the same bullet protection values as press vests right now so I would use those.

Press vest stops m4 and small cal, tact vest stops mosin and other large caliber, assualt vest just do minimal buffering of shots across the spectrum, with assualt you can still be chest shot with a mosin close distance one shot kill, however at range if in pristine condition it will absorb one.

pretty sure the press vest stops mosin rounds on occasion, because I had zero damage from a body shot from a mosin on two seperate occasions

And the condition of the vest was ? I've taken many m4 rounds to the point the person screams hacker at me.
But then it was utterly damaged, not ruined (before the patch that stopped them from regenerating)
But I will not say it won't just might depend on range and condition maybe ? your thoughts ?

combat logging in a building is great to stop bullets

I took two 7.62mm rounds to the chest point blank with an assault vest on and survived. The vest was ruined however.

The difference between the two is that the tactical vest is not in the loot table and the assault vest is.
