I'm a average to small guy (5'-6" 29"ish waist) and the images I've seen on retailers websites make the mannequins look like they're swimming in the vest.
Some retailers offer the vest in multiple sizes, but still show the same images which isn't helpful.
I'd be curious how this vest compares in size/fit to other styles of vests like the 6094 which looks similar.
I'm just getting into airsoft, so this will be my first plate carrier.

A good reference would be the size of SAPI plate it holds. The one pictured, with 4 upper molle rows, would be the XL in eagle - so a XL plate will fit snuggly within the front. 11x14". It's a really big vest in that size, and I personally could not shoulder a rifle with a plate bigger than Medium in the front.
The Medium size, has 3 upper molle rows, and will hold a Medium or large front, and medium rear...
The eagle does not drop as low or have as much coverage as say the CIRAS of equivalent size for instance.
