I was bored the other day and I thought, I don't have an AR15 chest rig. I have a belt rig (a sort of patrol rig), but I wanted a very lightweight chest rig. I don't have plates and I see this as more of an emergency deployment rig.
I have a 3 mag kangaroo pouch which is perfect as I can carry 3 x 30 round AR mags and 3 x pistol mags (most likely a Glock 19).
Kangaroo Pouch
All the pouch needs to create the chest rig is a way to attach it to my body. I used the MOLLE straps on the back of the pouch to secure a chest belt. The belt is attached by adjustable buckles so I can pull it nice and tight, wear it over something bulky (in winter).
The top and back strap form a sort of halter top, again adjustable with buckles. As this is a lightweight rig, this is all that is needed to hold the weight.
The whole rig is very adjustable, which given the variation in weather here, is a good thing. When I get the chance I will try this with some weight.
