Appreciate it! Looks solid! I have a kit but I decided running with plates is not ideal.
Judging by its build quality I have no doubt it will be a good piece of gear for years to come. I am just surprized at how tight the mags fit in there. I hope they stretch out a bit after a while.Dang I was looking at this one, so you wouldn’t recommend it?

True story, Vietnam 1969: I was on Reaction Force detail at a large combat base one night and as usual when assigned these additional duties was just sitting around on standby, playing cards and drinking beer. Would only have to do anything if attacked. Well, we got rocketed so RF got activated. Grabbed my rifle, steel pot, flak jacket, and claymore bag of magazines, met at the rally point, loaded on a truck and hit the perimeter. Remember that part about "drinking beer"? Got to a bunker and went to load when I found I had grabbed the wrong claymore bag, the one with coke cans and snacks/c-rats. Quite embarrassed and some pretty high anxiety as I had to crawl around looking for ammo.Welp here it is:

Initial thoughts: built quality looks absolutely top notch. The only thing I don't like is a M14 mag is TIGHT. Like have to struggle & use two hands to get one in tight...
It stretches the elastic real bad at the corners: View attachment 468485
As you can see it fits a 5.56 GI mag or a beer bottle fine.
I was debating between this & a repo Rhodie style rig when I ordered this. Wish I would have gone for the Rhodie rig now.

Ah ok so you’re gonna stick with it?Judging by its build quality I have no doubt it will be a good piece of gear for years to come. I am just surprized at how tight the mags fit in there. I hope they stretch out a bit after a while.
Yes but I'm gonna get the Rhodie rig also to compare.Ah ok so you’re gonna stick with it?

Sounds good! Please write back on here to show how it is! I’d be interested to know!Yes but I'm gonna get the Rhodie rig also to compare.
I've been told the same about Beeze.UW Gear Inc. makes an awesome rig with the split front option as well
Welp here it is:

What a quandary - which one do I empty first? Did you run out of San Magoo, or do you just want to keep your kidneys in operation?Welp here it is:

Art, you may want to look into these-they come in pink as well-Oh darn, the pink ballet slippers didn't make it into the photo. Sorry!
Great idea. Warm cozy feet make for good shooting. Now, those might just be an accessory for the M14 that makes sense.Art, you may want to look into these-they come in pink as well-
