Looking for a chest rig to carry magazines and other necessary equipment used in a tactical competition. Just want to see what everyone is using and recommends.

Thanks in advance.

Check with Nick Painter here on the hide. He is making so pretty cool stuff. I think he goes by HasgunWilltravel

Very good dude!!!!

Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

Thanks for the fame, Benji(I think, kick me in the balls if I am wrong in the fall).

Here is a pic of what hit the prize table at ASC.

The whole pack is being redone, but this is the layout that was given at ASC, and very positive feedback and suggestions were given, by some of the most elite shooters in the country, wich heavily influenced a few changes.

There is nothing on the chest at all, no buckles, no crap. If shooting prone, this is the gig.

Thanks for the information. I have one the SOTECH Hybrid Hydration Harness and padded pistol belt on order.

Does Grand River Tactical still make that rig? I did not see it on their website?
 
Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

I have been running the Tac Tailor MAV, simple and pretty good quality.

It's not on the website yet because its brand new, and I am clearing all orders off my plate, then after my new shop gets built, is high on my list to get it on the web site and a group buy/field testing program going around the first week in June. Just in time for spring/summer match/shooting season.

Wife says go big or go away, so going to give it a big go. New equipent, new shop, new start. Life is good. New stuff coming, just want to clear the plate first before I bury myself up to my eyeballs again.
 
Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

Nick, great to hear that you will be making this chest rig. I look forward to when it is available. Thanks.
 
Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

Hopefully when you done with final product, you could post pics of the front of shoulder straps. Curious if there are molle strips there to allow a small Kestrel pouch, ear plugs pouch, or ammo pouch on the top.
 
Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

+1 for Tactical Tailor MAV. Has to be the 2 piece though, and I recommend the optional X-harness. Good quality, and allows you to open in th front to get in a comfortable low prone.

I run the London Bridge PN:2586 Chest Rig

Blackhawk makes a less expensive version that is not quite the same: Modular Low Profile Chest Rig

If you have the time to wait for Nick @ Grand River, you should.
His stuff is top notch and has a lot of refinement put into his products prior to production.

My purpose for running the LBT rig is the versatility.
I can use it while running my AR platform, or while lugging a 18lb rifle up and down the mountains @ ASC.
Very low profile and very easy to go prone with.
Originally designed for the local NSW guys here and was built to their exact specs.
 
Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

All very nice rigs. I'm going to wait for Nick's Grand River rig, as I think it will be easier for prone shooting. But will have to see the final pics.
 
Re: Chest Rig Molle Webbing - What's everyone using?

Good luck with your new shop Nick. Will be waiting to see new rig with money burning a hole in my pocket.
