    Another tip that some may want to try:
    Making the water warm and mixing in a bit of hair conditioner will make the magazine pouch stretch even more. This is an old trick that people use when their clothes are shrunk in the dryer.

    We actually shot the new annual rifle qualification with a chest rig instead of war belt and standard mag pouches because of this issue. I was fairly impressed with the chest rig, and I’m also extremely impressed to see this video. Semper Fidelis, Sir.

    • @dylanrutan100
      @dylanrutan100 5 років тому +1

      godofawesum223 No. The USMC chest rig is completely different from the load bearing vest. In fact the LBV is being completely phased out of the infantry battalions. It serves little purpose as it is not compatible to be worn with the USMC plate carrier. The chest rig however is compatible to be worn over the Plate Carrier, as well as IMTV, and can also be worn stand alone.
