About this deal

For such a small rig it can hold a lot, but due to the design it uses the space well and still keeps a low profile. The Viper Special Ops Chest Rig caught my eye as it was cheap and very small. I decided on getting one in OD which I would then craft. Once you have processed your return in the portal, you're ready to post it off. Make sure you keep proof of postage.

With the rig crafted, I wanted to somehow holster my Mk23 on in, much like I have with the H-harness, to do this I simply made a cut out on the bottom of the far right utility pouch, just making this simple cut allowed my Mk23/Sig P226 to drop comfortably into the pouch, just under my arm. Removing and holstering the pistol is nice and easy, while being very secure. A plate carrier is a rig that is designed primarily to hold armour plates, be they SAPI type or others. These rigs are much larger and heavier than the average chest rig, even without dummy or real plates inside. For Airsoft purposes these rigs offer theadvantage ofprotection from BBs and additional MOLLEspace, not to mention thatthey look cool as all hell. If you want your Airsoft loadout to give off a special forces or COD vibe, this is the rig you will need. There are dummy plates available that are hollow, meaning your plate carrier doesn't have to be too heavy, and these offer the advantage of protecting you from close range pain whilst still allowing you to hear the BB impact, and as such call your hit. Whilst carriers without a pouch attachment system are available for specific loadouts (under a chest rig), most plate carrierscome covered with MOLLE loops, allowing it to double as protection and load-bearing equipment. Plate carriers tend to cover only the vital organs, meaning you do have a decent level of protection when airsofting but it generally won't cover much of the stomach area. A good plate carrier to start off with is the NUPROL RTG tactical vest. It comes with plenty of pouches included and being equipped with the MOLLE system it is modular enough to adapt to any changes in playstyle you may make in the future. Please mark "Returned Goods/Merchandise" option with no (zero) value when filling the Customs Declaration Form. On the front of the rig you will find two zipped, general purpose utility pouches, two elasticated pistol mag / tool pouches and two hook and loop ID panels.

RIG CHOICE AND PLAY STYLE

For a long time now I’ve been using the Viper VX Utility rig as my mine setup, I got this a few years ago when they first came out and I was immediately drawn to it, due to how modular it was. Now considering how small the rig is, that is pretty impressive. You can actually store more pistol magazines in the kangaroo M4 pouch section, I currently use 1 pistol mag in each M4 segment, but you can actually squeeze 2 in, however for ease of access I kept to one. Why do I use their rigs? They are simply cheap, they work and the quality/price balance is great. current vx utility rig However for me, I wanted to see how I could use it for the sniper role and what I could get of my H-Harness and into this.

This is the general term for the type of rig worn on the upper chest. These are usually small and lightweight compared to plate carriers and are designed with CQB, recon and other light infantry roles in mind. They are easy to run in and are an excellent magazine carriage solution, especially when operating from the prone position. They can also be worn in conjunction with other rigs, such as webbing/belts and plate carriers, offering an additional rig you can throw on to supplement the equipment on your belt/webbing. A great example of achest rig design is the 8Fields TacticalFully Loaded Recon Lightweight Chest Harness which uses the MOLLE attachment system to mount its pouches and can be configured for recon or direct action with its extended chest panel. Plate Carrier Magazines and equipment in the photos are for display purposes only and are not included with the product.

About Our Airsoft Tactical Vests, Chest Rigs & Plate Carriers

Worn across the body and generally providing coverage similar to a waistcoat, the assault vest is the classic rig present in all those top-tier 90s action movies, often worn by US SWAT and FBI HRT at the time. This style of vest is issued by the british army, in the form of a fully MOLLE compatible Assault vest which is capable of being worn over an Osprey body armour. These are great if you want a rig that covers more of your torso to take the sting out of those close-range hits, as plate carriers tend to leave the belly exposed and hits there are not pleasant. A good example of a classic assault vest is the 8Fields Tactical Assault vest with holster. This represents great value for money as it comes equipped with mag pouches and a cross-draw holster, provides good coverage against hits and is also light weight andthin, allowing you to use maximum effort whilst staying cool. Chest Rig The main pouch is lined with hook and loop allowing you to insert any mag or utility hook and loop sleeves. Not available for destinations in the Highlands and Islands, Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, Northern Ireland, Guernsey and Jersey, Isle of Scilly and mid Wales. The plan is to get an additional pair of this pads which will br crafted, this way when I run t under something like the Diversant suit or a traditional cloak, I can use the standard shoulder pads, but when I run my crafted leaf suit, I can use the crafted shoulder pads to add the depth and break up my shape. Having this modular ability is quite handy as I could have 3 setups: I used this setup in the recent Operation Oblivion 3 event in France with the Diversant suit, I have to say I was extremely happy with the setup.
