Damn! the listings been removed and he's deleted the images - I wish I copied them - the left hand reverse technique

for those unfortunate enough to miss it - he was wearing the vest in reverse so it was a rear mount arm. maybe a little easier on the back but surprisingly little free movement ;-)

Perhaps it's a special model for use south of the equator?
