At a guess I'd say it's CDS https://www.comandosdeselva.com/chalecos but without an intimate knowledge of Colombias supply chain it would be pretty difficult to pin down. If you're looking for something close a SAAV would probably work or maybe one of the Eagle Industries LBE vests.

There's one from an old Ebay listing shows up on Worthpoint but the listing has long since ended https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/colombian-military-assault-vest-166745841

@Shootin Aces ?

Since you put this up, I’ve been browsing out of curiosity, since I’ve seen this rig used in a lot of films and series!

I think I’ve found a close resemblance to it or might be it!?.... ?

I just took delivery of a suppressor from AliExpress ordered on the 3rd. Depends on the postal service chosen.

That is true! I have found a perfect looking vest but it is on Alibaba, anyone purchased from them before?

Alibaba and AliExpress are the same people. You might want to check the minimum order quantity...
