I generally use a chi-com style chest rig here in Alaska. The fit the bill for what I need at this point. This rig has some great modern features I can really appreciate. They didn't go overboard with anything from what I can see. They seem to have kept it practical and functional. I wont know until mine arrives next week. Thnx for the video,. Greetings from frozen Alaska.
Hi fella, thanks for watching. I think you hit the nail in the head there. Modern interpretation that does what it needs to without the extra bells and whistles. Greeting from across the Pond. Stay safe brother
Got GUARDIAN CHEST RIG a few years back, realize the current price about USD $149 now. The one produced in Vietnam, hopefully as good as European made one.
Kinda makes me sad that they did not make 4 columns of webbing on the side instead of 3. BTW it's way more easier to disconnect the buckles under your arms and than take the rig on/off. It's the entire beauty of H type harness ;)
Love this short of modern chicom remake did check the price and I think if it was around the £40 region would definitely pick one up but until the prices drop I’ll just stick to the old reliable chicom (really good review by the way)
Great low profile chest rig. Only 3 mags is too low a capacity to justify a rig, IMHO. Should have a min of 4 for a small kit like that, or could have made the pouches double mag pouches.
You're a genius Mr Madhouse. They fit in double stacked/side by side perfectly. Drop the in head first and it's perfect. Not too tight, not too baggy. I'll have a Short video added in two minutes. 🤜🤛
Its humble indeed its even too humble for the price (70€ ) Might as well just buy the Condor 7 pocket chest rig for half the price and double the utility. 99% of the people will use it on the Shooting Range, Wander-Marches, Camping or Airsoft anyway. Ofc this Price wont bother a Well established man like yourself, but the lack of 2 Utility pouches and at least 2 "Grenade" pouches on the sides is really disappointing. Its a really bare chestrig with no love put in it.
Just a quick question about running mags in that internal pocket. How well do those competition mag pouches hold ak47 style magazine is it a struggle to get the bungee retention lines to hold the mag and how easy is it to insert and remove them? Otherwise another great video and a very nice improvement on the audio.
That's the Helikon-Tex Mistral anorak... and I love it. I reviewed is a few months back on my other channel. Hope this helps - ua-cam.com/video/_RCylluxwHA/v-deo.html If you're considering getting one, I can't recommend it enough

I appreciate the more detailed breakdown. Halicon-Tex is not a well known brand in the US so my team has a lot of questions.
You're more than welcome. I'm that gear nerd that likes to know everything about something. All my best
Had to import mine into the states in woodland camo, abaolutely love it!
Good to hear!
I’m excited about this gear! Im also excited about the different camos they’ll make these in!
Same here!

Yes, they're great. Helikon make sure to check the quality and work closely with the manufacturers. Amazing law for money gear
Excellent review. Made me buy it just now.
Hope you enjoy it!

|Thanks you for the kind words buddy. Glad to hear you enjoyed the content
great bit of kit, i need one for my life for my AK12 load out, YEA happy new year
Happy new year!

Yep, I have to agree especially when the OG chest rigs this is taking inspiration from had more. Still a great rig for a light skirmish or range day
Maybe this is what i should test for my scorpion:)
Scorpion mags are perfect. Like I say, they still rattle about but was less than other M4 mag pouches
maybe i can put 2 mag in each pocket?

great i will check that video out@@moorlandertactical
I gave you a shout out in the comment 🤜🤛
i hope they bring this out in Tigerstripe
That would be sweet. I'm guessing this will do if it sells well
@@moorlandertactical i need them to make some tigerstripe pistol mag pouches too XD
Its humble indeed
its even too humble for the price (70€ )

They only hold M4 mags I'm afraid. Helikon really need to sort more AK mags. This cheat would only for with M4 mags
Dang that sucks. Have you tried putting the competition two gun insert in there?@@moorlandertactical
Do you know if this is good to go under IR & Nods mate?
It's a total guess... I'd say no. Helikon-Tex don't usually go that far with their gear. Pure guess though 👍
Thanks for that brother. I'll bare it in mind 🤙🏼
What kind of Jacket are you wearing?

Don't like the taste of crayons.
Hi Brian, apparently they're an acquired taste 😆
I'll take em if you're not going to eat em!
