The 308 Patrol Rig is well designed and crafted, 100% MADE IN USA, giving you the ability to carry five (5) x .308 (7.62) magazines in easily accessible magazine pouches. Utilizing kydex retention inserts in the magazine pouches gives excellent magazine retention while allowing for lighting fast reloads. Sold separately are the MVT admin pouches in two sizes (small and medium), which attach to the MOLLE front on the 308 Patrol Rig, and utilize the ‘tuck tab’ method for silent opening and closing (no Velcro).

This rig has some outstanding features:

  • .308 (7.62) magazine pouches x 5.
  • Low profile fit with the 5 x magazine pouches close to the body.
  • Each magazine pouch is supplied with a Kydex insert which both secures the magazine and allows for fast reloads.
  • Kydex inserts can be adjusted up and down within the pouches for personalized magazine presentation, and to adjust height between 20 and 25 round magazines.
  • 3 rows of MOLLE across the rig for maximum versatility.
  • ‘Tuck tab’ design of the admin pouches (sold separately), providing secure closed-top pouches that can be accessed with complete silence – no velcro, buckle, or snap noise
  • 4 adjustable points for a “perfect fit” for almost any body type / shape.
  • H-harness design with “vertical” MOLLE – providing comfort to be worn by itself, or with a backpack.
  • H-Harness is supplied with MOLLE to make the rig hydration carrier compatible.
  • Rear pouch for orienteering style compass.
  • Map / Notebook Pouch on back of rig, overlaying the compass pouch.
  • Antennae loops on the bottom of the rig. By using a flexible antennae extension, you can route the antennae(s) down and under the rig.
  • 1000D Cordura.
  • 100% MADE IN THE USA.

KYDEX INSERTS: At MVT, we believe that you need a rig that is quick and easy to insert mags, bump mags, or do a tactical reload. What we wanted was a way of doing it with one hand, allowing you to keep the other on the rifle, scanning. Kydex inserts allow you to remove and insert, one handed, including in low/no light. You can hang upside down without worrying about your mags falling out. They provide pouch rigidity, so it’s easier to reload, without the pouch collapsing around the mag.

  2. I think this is by far the best 7.62 NATO rig on the market. Between Max and the OEM, you have a really good design here. With these new kydex inserts, you can shit-can the shock cord pull tabs and have a mag pouch every bit as good, if not perhaps a bit more so, than the old Eagle FB design. In my mind that was the pinnacle of pouch design, but I think we have surpassed that here, IMHO.

    For those of you that have been to classes at MVT, you now realize why our chest rigs are designed the way they are. For those of you that haven’t, we humbly submit that this is exactly what you are going to require!

  3. Diz you made that point well when detailed how exactly you can stay lower to the ground with your chest rigs than a belt during reloads.

    I showed up with a copy of my 80s USMC rig at 10x the cost and can’t say I was happy with it for various reasons. I’ll take a guess that we ended up with that style of rig back then was the Vietnam experience, load em down, march em all day, dig in at dusk, register the artillery and wait for the night attack and stack the mags in your hole.

    The turn around on my recently arrived Versa was very fast, thanks

  4. Yeah I hear ya brother, for the life of me I can’t understand these guys who complain about reloading from a chest rig, especially as compared to a belt kit. I experiment with both and I’m a hell of a lot faster from a MVT chest rig than I am from the belt line.

    Yeah too right, I’ve dome that; stack mags straighten pins, and stand by to fire the FPF!

    I think a lot of guys have had bad experience with these huge chest rigs that have 2-3 layers stacked up. With BA, yeah you’re gonna have problems getting prone!
