Somebody told me that they felt that this was a step backwards in chest rigs but honestly the simple design and ability to add a few pouches on the side is all you really need in a chest rig. People have been brainwashed by thinking they need speed reloads and quick reindexing of magazines and multiple velcro pouches that don't hold enough of what you need....

The black material is waterproofing and made to help minimize/ tarp whatever is in the pocket

The SIMP design is from ‘90s era fanny pack. I used to jog with them because they tucked into the torso closely.

It’s the missionary position of chest rigs.

The black lining is supposedly to last long from abrasion of some sort. Idk how it works but it’s out there. Edit: Apparently it’s suppose to be weatherproof.

I love your reviews and appreciate your perspective. Have a great thanksgiving.

Happy thanksgiving man! Keep bringing the gear nerd gold to us.

The Mayflower UW Gen VI rig has a map pocket that extends across the whole back of the rig similar to the onward. It’s actually pretty useful I keep a signaling panel off to one side and a small foot care kit on the other

I really wanted to love mine. After experimenting with different configurations, I couldn’t help but wish it had only three mag pouches and three columns of molle each side.

Great review. Big fan of chest rig in my hobby.

I ordered a simp pouch a few days before you posted this video, thank you for justifying my purchase 😂

The SIMP reminds me of the built in dangler on the Platatac mk5. I use the simp as a small blowout kit as it can't hold much else that's useful for me as a civilian. I like it though because my TQ, gauze and mini shears are fully protected from the elements. Happy thanks giving Fish and everyone else! 🇺🇲

I currently run the simp pouch with my spiritus system lv119 overt. And I gotta say I'm a big fan of the simp pouch. Reason being I'm smol and don't have a lot of room to hang stuff off my kit

Good video and review. I would prefer one less mag pouch and more molle. Can you attach a camelback to it ?. A little padding on the straps would make long term wear a little nicer. Where did you score the radio ?.

I really wish they'd also made this rig in coyote brown!

I haven't handled one but it seems like the pouches could use some elastic material, especially at the top.

Happy thanksgiving, gear review father

Very helpful, thanks

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thankisgiving!

If they hadn’t used Murdock woven webbing I would have loved this rig. The mag pouches are the best thing about it.

Cool review

3 columns of molle on either side would be more ideal.

Great review as always! i noted that the one you reviewed has coyote buckles and velcro wraps instead of the black ones shown on the website, is that a custom order/special drop?

It's nice to see an "influencer" that is putting out quality products and not jacking up the prices 'cause their name is on it. I am really interested in the SIMP. Have you messed with Ferro's mini dangler? I have Grey Ghost's dangler and it gets in the way of the horizontal emergency mag on my belt.

Looks like another spin on the Paul Howe system.

I use a type 81 that I modded out with esses mag plastics inserts 30 bucks

I dont understand only having 2 columns of molle on the sides. It kills this rig for me, most GP pouches require at least 3 columns, if not 4, so this seems likea huge miss to not just add 1 more column

Never seen a dangler like that! Might want it for my AC1 ;)

only Travis Haley thinks the X Harness is an "upgrade" from the H lmoa. I think every hates the x harness but him lol. but i use a flatpack, would this clip to a flatpack?

R e c c e

I wonder why there is no bartacking?

That looks suspiciously like Kommando remixed pat84

Awesome content. Thanks. Where did you get the 152?

Does it fit an AK mag?

Is the flap adjustable in height on back attachment portion?

It only holds 2 bags of skittles and 1 bag of gummy bears...

Before you ever got to the chest rig portion, i read the comments about the inner black reinforced lining of the mag pouches and thought, “hey that sounds like a tactailor pouch…” well what do you know. Seems we think alike.

nice job as always, hope you got to eat turkey with your kiddos

Are these materials NIR compliant?

I agree with Brent0331 just get a blackhawk commando chest rig it carries everything and anything.

I liked mine till it ripped under the stress of 4 mags loaded with 25 rounds. The buckle attaching the rig to the h harness ripped straight off of the placard. Very disappointing. I didn't even take it out to Ruck or train.

Great company but the chest rig is lacking you can find parts and build one the exact same way for about half the cost and make it a little more mission capable

At 6:43 time, now do M1A magazines, please.

Meh w/ this chesty in my opinion

160.00 bucks and no room to put an IFAK and GP pouch ? Barely fits two P mag, no thanks.

Those "not molle" spots, are probably for chemlights, or sharpie markers...maybe ???
