I do like the look of the Hayley rig. Wish I could justify the price for the amount of use it's going to get as I'm not able to play as much as I used to few years ago. Might look into it further if the Arktis turns out to be not so great. That's a good shout too. Thank you all for the great suggestions. Really appreciate it! Looks a bit tight to me when he puts the M4 magazines in. Reminds me of the PC when I had to stuff two magazines into one pouch and sometimes struggled to get them back in or even out. Hopefully the Arktis proves me otherwise. yeah. some of the rigs can be overpriced and in the end not worth the money you pay. That's why I mostly turn towards stuff that is used by the military. Not for the wannabe soldier looks, but for the durability. And some surplus can be bought at very good prices and last you ages. Might not be the most comfortable and lightweight kit, but certainly can last and stand the wear and tear.

that is true! although on my plate carrier I only played about with two pouches. Oh my... that sounds wrong out of context 😆 that will be my go to if all else fails. aren't they made out of some kind of sustainable material? at least I'll be kind to the environment!😆

Will do! With work at the weekends I won't be able to test it for another month or so. Will share my thoughts as soon as I get to play with it. Thanks!

Thank you for all your inputs. Much appreciated. I've pulled a trigger on a used arktis 42. If that proves to be no good then I'll look for SADF M83 or the LBT 1961A as they both look like something I'd willing to wear. Only downside to the arktis that I can see is that I won't be able to move or remove the pouches unlike molle systems. We shall see!

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, Straight to the point. After selling my plate carrier I've found myself in need of a new webbing/chest rig as they seem comfortable, practical, lighter and so on. I did not like the plate carrier as it was heavy, bulky, uncomfortable and restricted my movement. After 3 years I've had enough of it. Therefore, my question to you lovely folk is what do you recommend as a webbing/chest rig? What are your experiences? What do you run personally and what pros and cons have you found using your rig? After few hours research it seems like Arktis 42 (see picture below) would be my choice. However, before I commit to a purchase I would like some input from the forum. Equipment that I always have with me are 6 mid-cap AR platform magazines, speed loader and occasionally a small personal radio. Thank you
