I made sure it could be converted to either manual or automatic, the sales person thought I had three heads when I told him I wanted the choice. Gave me the whole song and dance about liability to the manufacturer, I read the manual and found he was wrong (perhap the A/M in the name was a clue, it's an A/M24). Check before you purchase, mine had the manual cap in a pocket within the vest specifically for the caps. I also purchased the rearming kit so when I'm rock hoping I can change it to automatic and rearm it if used. PFD was on sale bass pro for $99, I liked the external sunglasses pocket and found the neoprene used in the back neck area more comfortable than other vest, I only wish it had a little more reflective fabric (only the white stripes are reflective).
