I ended up making my Sniper vest myself because I couldn't find anything similar enough to mod. It's surprisingly simple and I'm horrible at sewing. I used KWIK SEW #3638.
A few simple modifications to the pattern works wonders. I doubled the fabric and sandwiched it between quilting batting to give it some thickness (and it makes it SUPER comfortable, if a little warm). Fabric I used is a thick cotton material, almost canvas-like and then lined edges with bias tape. The snaps are purely decorative because the rig I bought wouldn't work correctly, but I have little issues as the pockets are deep enough that nothing I throw in there will fall out.
The zipper was the most difficult aspect, and isn't exactly necessary, but I like having my cosplay items be a bit functional, since I tend to wear bits and pieces in everyday life.
Can't help you much on the props, but if you have questions regarding the vest, shoot me an e-mail.
