Lead Poison 2 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) I dont know if this has been posted on here before but has anyone used this rig? Hold three, 8 or 10 round mags. It seems solidly built... Edited August 29, 2012 by Lead Poison Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_L 6 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Looks all right, but can we get a link? Or a brand name? That would help us out. Weird, though. I've been thinking of how I was going to lug all this sweet ammo around all morning =D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_L 6 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Right. Didn't know that was an issue here. Still getting a feel for this place. Appreciate the link, though. And sorry to the mods if it's a violation, that's my fault for asking. Edited August 29, 2012 by Jon_L Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_L 6 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Gotcha. Well, I did some actual research and the consensus is: its the only one on the market (they claim, and as far as I can tell it is), and it looks good to me. The only thing I can think of doing otherwise is somehow attaching some mag holders to a vest or something. It would be jury-rigged but it might work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CFOofEVIL 8 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Using a chest rig is not about running around in your backyard "playing soldier" - it's just a method to readily carry spare ammunition for the weapon. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
montec 164 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 I found a certain M4 mag pouch fits the 5rd one great and possibly could do an 8 or 10rd one, but I dont have anything bigger then a 5rd one. Oh and a certain cantin pouch will fit 3 nicely and also allow for 5rds of loose in each of the side pockets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shoot2thrillu 10 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 buddy gets some magazine like cheaper than dirt and they had vests for the saIGA. ebay does too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sumsky 115 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 I made my own chest rig. I attached three barcode scanner pouches together, and rigged my harness. Holds six S12 stick mags, and 6 Pistol Mags. Will probably attach a pouch to hold my 20 round Drum on the right side. I can either attach the bottom to my Pant Belt using side release delrin buckles, or use another belt through the back of the rig to go around my waist. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_L 6 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) That's cool ^ Thanks for sharing. I'll probably be making my own, aswell. Edited August 30, 2012 by Jon_L Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lead Poison 2 Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 all i can say is why? unless your in the military or law enforcement and use a saiga i cant see spending that kind of money and buying the mags to fill it just to run around your backyard playing solidier. Jesus dude rough childhood? The only use I can see is for outdoor shooting where table spaces is limited or unwanted and you can loaded mags in a convenient carrier. I dont shoot outdoors enough where it justifies the expense Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For some, it is their backyard soldier/ survivalist fantasy or whatever. Others want to do competition and need a way to carry their gear within easy reach for speed. Many many others get overexcited by our cool platform and buy anything remotely connected to it. I've considered one for the second and a bit of the third reason.

Call me paranoid, but just in case shit goes down I have everything organized and ready to go. I am glad I did not have to buy this rig, I used stuff around my house to put this together. This way I can spend my money on two more rigs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Russian 1 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Do you keep it rigged up that way all the time just in case? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes its rigged like that all the time hanging behind my bedroom door, that rig is for my S12. It will hold mega AR and AK mags but the thing would be extremely heavy.

Comanche 5 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Can't help to think one of those would come in handy if you, being a civilian, became involved in a natural disaster with civil unrest as a result. Hurricane Katrina comes to mind.....not to mention all of this talk from the Obummer admin about the coming civil unrest. It almost seems that they are looking forward to it. In this case, we should all be prepared. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigdust80 10 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I've got a BCS '74 chest rig for my .223. It's really well made and low profile. Better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hate these kind of posts. If he has a use for it he'll use it and if not he'll leave it at home. Personally I use a backpack when I am trekking around on foot with the Saiga but if he wants to use a vest instead good for him - I use a pouch vest all the time when I'm skeet/trap shooting to hold my extra shells and the concept is pretty much the same.
