I would go so far to say that someone running a three gun or IDPA match with "tactical gear" isn't trying to be an ultra-secret commando, he or she is just running whatever setup helps them compete better. Nothing wrong with that.
I'm sorry, but when I think tactical, I think of F-15Cs opposed to B-52Hs.
If I were to run an IDPA or three gun match today, you can bet that I would cannibalize my MOLLE vest for pouches and such. Does that make me a mall ninja?
That being said, I still inwardly cringe when I see something marketed as tactical or hear some refer to something as tactical, especially mundane objects, like boots, pants, pens, etc.

Beacause it would be awesome to pretend to be Hawkeye from the Avengers and prance about in tights, that's why.
