What's different from the original? Other than the X of course.

I see the pouches have changed.
Is there any real advantage to the criss cross on the back?

The NEW Disruptive Environments™ Chest Rig X has been redesigned to improve comfort, storage capabilities and work seamlessly with D3CR accessories. The X harness was added for comfort and ultimate adjustability. The addition of 2 Multi-Mission pouches allows the rig to be more streamlined and carry mission essentials where they count. The full field of velcro allows the rig to be outfitted with the latest D3CR accessories as well as assist in the full contact connection with plate carriers. Just like it's predecessor, it is designed and optimized for work in urban, vehicle, rural and other confined settings.
Driven by mission versatility. When used as a stand alone, the platform is low profile enough to be worn fully loaded and not print on a normal/loose fit jacket or sweatshirt. When used on a armor platform with a quick release system, such as SwiftClips™, it can be attached or stowed in seconds, giving the end user the versatility to transition from low vis to high vis or vice versa. The rifle magazine pouches accept AR type magazines as well as AK 7.62 x39mm and 5.45 x 39 magazines. The Multi-Mission Pouches accept 1911, Glock, Sig, M&P, XD and other standard double or single stack pistol magazines, as well as many handheld lights, multi-tools, and 37mm/40mm grenades. The rig intentionally does not include a radio or dedicated full size medical pouch so no matter the posture, essentials such as communications and medical kits can remain on the end user at all times From Website. |

Had the D3CR and sold it. Good solid chest rig, but the H harness lack of adjustment made the rig sit too low. In fact, a lot of pictures I've seen of the D3CR have the rig low.

X harness straps adjust independently and are more adjustment friendly. Without the rear "bridge", you can adjust the rig as high or low as you want. With D3 rig, adjusting the the straps so the rig sat higher, lowered the bridge to my mid back. Adjusting the rig too low to fit larger folks, the bridge will hit your neck. |

For a guy happily set with his SOE chest rigs, I do really like the look of the new model. I wonder, since I use both .308 and 5.56 - and I normally have separate chest rigs for each - will the 5.56 mags work OK in the Heavy chest rig pouches, or will they just be too loose?

Have and love the original D3CR.
But as stated, it sits too low on the chest with the harness. I rarely use the harness for this very reason. I usually just keep it on my Mayflower APC with Swiftclips. Occasionally will run it with the Haley Flatpack which sits it higher on the chest if the Flatpack has a bladder or other bulk in it to serve as an offset or counterweight. Would be interested in buying just the X harness if it becomes available, to see if it will solve the issue of riding too low with the original harness. Not currently offered on HSPs site, but if they put them up or Eggroll from EGL makes them available, I'm in for one. |

They also had sales that brought the price to around the original release price, but now it seems like it's mostly free shipping when they're on "sale". I don't think it's quite worth $180, but it's designed nicely. I think once the cool guys started using them, they upped the price. It looks like you could purchase the X straps and swap them out with the H straps rather than buy a new chest rig, unless you like the new pouch layout (which I don't).

I buy all my stuff on the 2nd hand market if I can. I paid $135 shipped for a RG D3CR. Multicam D3s are available all day long.
Might be a while before the X is available on the used market though. |

I put an old random X harness on mine to keep it higher but would consider a HS X harness if they sell em separately. |

just got the D3CRx in the mail. overall impressions are good, however the X harness i find hard to get on and situated. I much prefer the H harness on my mayflower and my old (stolen) D3CR. It sits at a perfect height for me.
It's well built, but at least $50 more then it should be (and i didnt even get any swag with the order, but it did ship hella fast). The Mayflower I have has much more to offer space-wise and was $120. I'll post up some pics once i get it all loaded up. |

I prefer the H harness on my mayflower to this new X harness big time. I find it hard to get on and off. Once its on it takes time to ensure it's an X behind your head and not a twisted ball of fabric. build quality is good. There is more room between mags then on my mayflower which allows me to get my large hands onto a mag quicker and more securely, however the pistol mag pouches IMO are too small for a G17 mag... unless you want to use a lot of strength to draw it out even after moving the shock cord. I am going to set it up for my wife as it fits her better then me. I will hang onto my mayflower for sure.

I would really like to buy the new version, but I am afraid it wouldn't fit me. There's little to no adjustment on these, correct? Along with the astronomical pricing the lack of adjustment capability makes little sense to me.
