Comprehensive, all-inclusive chest rig - Tactical Assault Gear Tactical Vest - TAG Intrepid Chest Rig

This chest rig includes everything an infantry rifleman will need. The two multipurpose pouches work great to hold NVGs and a first aid kit. A basic load for a rifleman is 7 30-round magazines. The additional two magazine slot works excellent to hold a smoke grenade or a couple of bangers. The dual communication system works well thanks to the routing attachments on the shoulder straps. Everything is easily accessible and functions well. This chest rig is easy to don and doff and it doesn't require a "squire" to get mission ready. My only complaint with this rig is the use of magnets on the front of the rig. I'm sure they are useful for someone, however, I run a compass in kit and now it is 10 degrees off azimuth. Not only that, it is impossible to get an compass to work while you are wearing this chest rig. My solution to this problem was to get a razor blade and cut out the magnets. Problem solved. Learn from my mistake and cut these magnets out before you are trying to direct a close combat attack and give the pilots an azimuth that is completely wrong.
