Not every situation calls for overt gear — and with so-called 'grey man' equipment becoming popular many desire slimmer solutions to carrying armor & ammunition. Enter eagle industries, and their "low profile chest rig"
The form factor will be familiar to anyone who's seen or used the TAPS rig, or many other commercially available slimline chest rigs. Designed to hold 3 STANAG AR magazines closely to your chest, the rig is minimalist but still expandable to your needs. Mags have optional shock cord retention, all straps are removeable & adjustable, and the whole front of the rig is a combination PALS/loop field so you can weave or stick on any kind of pouches or patches.
The shoulder straps are a wide & comfortable "X-harness" style arrangement, and a kidney strap keeps the bottom of the rig in check when it's loaded up. The whole arrangement can be worn in conjunction with armor or without it, and can even fit under jackets.
For a hyper minimalist chest rig, this might have everything you want. And it’s in quite possibly the most collectible camo out there…
Specs
Configuration
Full: Both shoulder straps, kidney strap, bungee mag retainers, and extra attachment point buckles for use with a plate carrier are included.
Standard: Both shoulder straps, kidney straps, and bungee mag retainers included.
Base: Both shoulder straps included. You'll want to source your own kidney strap and magazine retention system.
Condition
All chest rigs are in new, unissued condition.
I luckily picked up one of the last ones! it's very cool, low profile and comfortable. (and mine came with tons of extra mounting hardware?)
my one issue is that re indexing mags can be a little troublesome but I think there may be a small "break in" period.
Here is a pic on me, it's going to be hard to find a low enough profile gun to work with the rig!
