First thing, this little mod is only meant for fun only, noting is being field tested so far.
About a week ago there is a discussion between me and one of my friends on why "Crotalus atrox" company can sell their pouches oversea but not there chest rig. During the discussion I come up with a statement saying that "chest rig= pouch + strap + buckle". Since I got time on my hand, I test out if my little equation actually works.
Make your own Improvised Chest Rig
The recipe:
- one 5x40mm grenade pouch (or any mag/ammo pouch you desire)
- one/two pack of eagle industries buckle replacement kit (available at Supreme co.)
- Nylon strap (special thanks for bro4 providing this)
All you need to do is just simply attach the buckles on the molle webbing at the back of the pouch and put the nylon strap through them, as shown in the photo below.
I have seen some Brits PMC doing similar mod to their 3xM4mag pouch and turn it into a bandoleer. Some of you may wonder why I choose the 5x 40mm pouch for this, because you can actually fit 10 MP5 mag into it whatever direction you want to put them. Bungee loops can be attached to the pouch flap in order to provide extra secure point preventing mag or small item slip on form the side.
Improving the improvised Chest Rig
The chest rig can be expanded by stacking additional pouches together much like building Lego bricks. I extended it by adding a M60 ammo pouch to each end as shown below.
In the following picture, you can see Tac talior's m4 shingel is used as a bridge to connect the 5x40mm pouch and M60 ammo pouch. Buckle can be attached to the molle webbing directly or via malice clip attached to the webbing.
Now, this rig can carry ammo for MP5/M4/M60/flashbang etc. as shown below.
It can also integrated with armor plate carrier
