Bought an HSGI Sure-Grip battle belt a few weeks ago and I love it. Its rugged, comfortable, and stays where it should. Now I’m looking for an addition to hold more rifle mags. I am looking for something that sits high enough on the chest to work in conjuction with my battle belt. I have looked through the standard sights at chest rig set-ups, M4C and here. I have a few I’ve been looking at and was wondering if anyone has any experience with any of them or suggestions.
Top contender is:
http://www.optactical.com/hsaosmchrig.html I like the minimalist and compactness of this rig. Again, I have several of their products and have been more the pleased with the quality and service.
The next one I am looking at is:
http://www.optactical.com/orsoepamwrli.html I like that it has a built-in admin pouch. My concerns are on the durability of the zipper and how the rig carries the weight of the mags. Will the two layers tend to sag when my mag pouches are fully loaded?
I am also looking at this one:
http://www.optactical.com/orsoepamirig.html Basically looks like just another one like the HSGI rig. Very minimalist.
The last one that caught my eye was this one:
http://www.optactical.com/higrgechrig.html I know nothing of the company. I can’t seem to find much review-wise on the company or rig. The minimalist design appeals to me. I also like that the shoulder straps look padded. Would really appreciate some info on them. I don’t want to mistakenly order some airsoft jumk.
The function of this rig will be mainly to carry 3-4 AR mags, maybe an extra pistol mag to use during some training from a friend of a marine friend of mine that seems to know his stuff. He's trained at DARC (on a side note, he's taking me to play opfor during a few training classes DARC has coming up. If you haven't heard of DARC look them up, especially over at lightfigher, they have some great AARs from some courses there. If everything goes good I might be able to get into a class in the future. ) Also a flashlight and knife/multitool maybe if I don’t find room on my belt for it. I consider the belt my first line and carry a blowout kit on it as well as a dump pouch in the rear. So, any thoughts guys?
