The Old-versus-New debate is always so interesting, especially when both have situational viability, but I find middle is the best ground. Something like this: with the ability to add a slim Plate, Assault Pack or a Ruck, hell maybe even a batman-belt? Gotta be the way forward to me. Old meets new, scalable, with speed.
Chest rigs: Human anatomy says that carrying a load on the front of your chest puts strain on your lower back (to keep upright). Weight distributed around your hips is much easier to carry. I carry magazines in an issue bandoleer slung over my shoulder. Secure the bottom corners to your belt if it flops too much.
Chest rigs are such a big thing now, but I always thought they must suck if you have to go prone. Granted, we used the Alice Gear when I was in the Army, but it just seems like it truly IS better in the prone.
ive been working on my alice kit lately, more and more im loving it my than a chest rig.
Good deal my friend stay after it thats the way to go thanks for watching
