What is a chest rig?

Chest rigs add extra utility that most plate carriers lack by providing ample storage space for pouches, holsters, and other essential tactical gear, designed for law enforcement and tactical operators.

What chest rigs does the military use?

The Soldier Plate Carrier System (SPCS) is a bulletproof vest developed for the U.S. Army. These SPCS have MOLLE webbing on the front and back pieces, also the cummerbund and side plate pouch for mounting a variety of pouches and equipment.

Are chest rigs good?

While chest rigs offer less protection than plate carriers, they provide more mobility and weigh less. These attributes can come in handy for various missions, but a bonus is the ability to pack or store your body armor while still carrying ammo and gear. Those with chest rigs would utilize this option during significant unit hikes as we would be required to pack our body armor. Wearing our chest rigs would save space in the pack, even out the weight, and keep us ready for anything.

What are chest rigs for?

Chest rigs are tactical gear storage that mounts on your chest to provide instant access to essential equipment and accessories in the field. Tactical chest rigs often feature MOLLE webbing compatible with holsters, dump pouches, and other accessories.

Can you put plates in a chest rig?

Chest rigs are not the same as plate carriers. Plate carriers are designed to hold body armor for ballistic protection, while chest rigs are used for tactical gear storage. Usually, you would wear a chest rig over your armor plate carrier in the field.
