Down to the Details

We've done our best to clone the original fan-favorite, but with enhanced quality control & materials selection.

It's far beyond the "Airsoft" quality of the SSO/SPOSN Jaeger, without sacrificing any of the rugged simplicity of the original.

If you love the original Jaeger or it's derivatives, you'll love ours even more.

Familiar Feel, Upgraded Durability

Low NIR Reflectivity

Type-A QC & Our Guarantee

Piece By Piece

The Jaeger excels at being a grab-and-go rig with broad versatility & perfect compatibility with AKM platforms.
We've broken down our kit below to demonstrate it's capability.

Jaeger Magazine Pouches

All-Rounder Pouches

Featuring an internal plastic divider, the pouches are designed to hold 4 30-round AK magazines but works with a variety of platforms. Six AR-15 Magazines total fit comfortably and are easily retrieved using mag assists or ranger plates.

The internal divider is removable, making it a versatile way to carry more than just ammo — extra water, a radio, and more are right at home.

Removable Pouches

Don't Got Nades?

The pouches can be removed to run slick or swap with your favorite GP Pouches.

If you run them, The smaller pouches are perfect for boo-boo kits, compact Tourniquets, compasses & GPS units, and of course, your favorite throwable.

Quick Release

E-Z Doffing

Spanish style shoulder harness buckles make quick-doffing extremely simple and intuitive to re-stage. metal hardware ensures this feature will practically never fail.

X-Harness

Comfortable & Reliable

The wide webbing & comfortable shoulder straps with clips for extra pouches or PTTs makes for a comfortable system you can wear all day.

Document Protector

Keep It On A Leash

The drawcord attached document holder protects maps & other sensitive docs in a water-resistant package.

AKM-Style Magazines

As this is a clone of the Jaeger intended for the AKM platform, expect the classic 30-rounders for 7.62x39 chambered rifles to fit perfectly.

5.45 magazines of the 30-round variety will also fit.

Taller magazines such as the 40 round magazines intended for the RPK will exceed the available flap length on the pouches and may only be able to be ran open-top.

NATO/STANAG Magazines

AR-15 and other STANAG-styled magazines will fit comfortably, however, they may be difficult to access quickly due to the depth of the pouch itself.

You can add mag assists/ranger plates to each magazine or add a filler (foam or plastic wedge) to the bottom of the pouch to make your freedom filled STANAG mags work just as well as the commie mags.

Fuken well built!

This thing feels like genuine army surplus quality, but in a good way. This feels like a government spent a bunch of money on this, then forgot they existed until some bureaucrat sells them on the black market to buy himself a BMW and a fun weekend with some strippers.

nice, but not a fan of the metal buckets in the front

Maybe they are prefect for someone who wants an exact clone, but I'm not a fan of the metal jingly buckles in the front of the rig

Quite Self-Evident

Material is good, I love the Molle loops to ditch the grenade pouches that I wish were snap instead of Velcro, and the sweat-proof bag in the chest pocket is something that seems like a no-brainer but was not on the originals... Honestly, the only qualms I have with it are the pricetag and the fact the shoulders pinch your neck if you aren't wearing something with a collar. Such is life, though. A great canvas for indecipherable esoterica.

If you wear it under your Smersh harness you'll probably end up cinching it fairly high up the chest unless you decide to wear the harness relatively low. Depends on how tall you are, I suppose, but otherwise it feels decent and fits well with very little adjustment.

And for anyone that cares, it's a damn close match to new-gen. SSO/SPOSN's grey-green material.

Sexy Russian Rig

Do you like Sanskrit? Do you collect Vostok watches? Do you want to go back in time to when ak’s were cheap? Do you want an Eastern European mail order bride? Then buy Arktis’ Jaeger Chest rig. It is well made with the finest Pakistani nylon. Easy to adjust to your fit and build and boy does it feel good. Simple design but super useful. SUKA BLYAAAAATTTT!!!!
