Let me start off by saying Pantac is good for airsoft. It's a good way to acquire gear that can put up with some abuse without breaking the bank. However, you are looking at some minor issues. There's often hardware problems with pantac items, several items (last I checked) lack the more robust ITX Gilletex hardware. Buy the better ones online and replace everything you can. 5 dollars + shipping can fix this issue. Also the same hardware often is not IR rated and turns white in Night Vision.
Hardware issues aside. I'm not sure if they use mil-spec webbing/cloth. But what they do use is pretty damn good. Again, with the IR stuff, I'm not sure how their cloth items are, but if it's not mil-spec, there's a chance it might turn out white in Night Vision. Be aware of this before you start going nuts over pantac stuff, check them in NV before you make a firm purchase.
Again, for airsoft, it's probably the best option. Really affordable. Tougher than a one legged bosnian hooker. Most importantly, complete replicas of expensive items. If you want that Eagle CIRAS but don't want to shell out that paycheque for it, go Pantac.
Personally, I prefer the real stuff, but I'm not going to lie and say I'm not impressed by the quality of Pantac. For china made... probably the only one I'd trust.
