Help with old chest rig ID

[Two36]

I can't seem to find one of my favorite chest rigs, I moved, house break in, moving on.
Don't have pics, but this is definitely simple enough that someone might know name or where to find.

Eagle ind tag
3x7.62 mags
Slot pocket between torso/mags
2x pistol mag pouches, one at each side of row of rifle mags.
2"(?) Web standard x harness.
No molle
No velcro
OD green

Simple enough right? Searched high and low, can't find one. Figured someone here may have some input.
Came from a guy who spent a lot of time with 2/75, if that helps.. got the I dunno from him.

Sounds like an old school Rhodesian chest rig. Or commando rig

 

[Two36]

Definitely not eagles Rhodesian rig, tiny in comparison.Was new in plastic bag when I got it, think it was made in 05.

Sounds like the LE chest rig but I don’t remember it being made without PALS webbing.

Not an AOR series by eagle?

Maybe an early version of the Multi Mission Rig, before they MOLLE'ed the hell out of them.

It also sounds similar to the Blackhawk Low Profile Chest Rig. That was my preferred rig when driving a bunch.


Both of them are from about that time frame.

That Blackhawk is very similar too it.

I had zero luck on this one.
Whatever it was, Eagle did not make many of them, there isn't any on the surplus market like the Rhodie Rig (RRV). Makes sense as there wasn't many 7.62 shooters downrange, especially early on. It could have even been a prototype that never went to full production.
As far as similar and available goes, you might want to look at the Haley Strategic Micro or the Blue Force Gear Ten-Speed Chest Rig.
Both are small, low profile, no velcro, no or minimal MOLLE, and can hold 7.62 mags.
Sorry you lost your old one. I know finding a comfortable and useful chest rig is a pain. Despite having a box full of rigs, I keep going back to my old Rhodie Rig.

The Haley rig is the cats ass. Love it

That's conclusion I came to as well. Had to be some special order or proto.
I'll likely end up with one of those two.I didn't realize bfg was still making the tenspeed, that's probably going to be the winner.
Thanks for the help!

I have a very old 5.56 mag sized one like described, 4x single pouches with flaps, 2x pistol mag pouches on the ends. This was also given to me (like 20+ years ago) so no idea on the model name and nothing to ID it other than the Eagle St. Louis, MO USA label sewn on one of the straps.

Not much help, but they did exist.

Modern and able to be tailored.

Eagle and Blackhawk (before sold) made so many 1-off runs of stuff that then morphed into something else in the early 2000s. I'm betting it was one of those.

A lot are somewhat similar but then different. Sounds like something Eagle made, but good luck finding it.
