It got a bit of attention because at the time it was quite unusual being so small and simplistic. It had like 3 mag pouches right on the front with some small sections of webbing on each side for little misc gear.
Im not looking for one, I just had a random thought and now it's bugging me because I cant remember what it was.

There were a few options along those lines.

The Eagle LE-style M4 chest rig was another:

Also the BFG 10-speed rig, though it was 4 mag pouches:




ETA: It might have been the UW Gear Minuteman rigs, those had a bit of a following on this site years ago:

I still have one of these in coyote.   Excellent little chest rig.  I used to have the one for the AK mags as well.  Wish I had never let that one go.
I can’t stand it to think my life is going so fast and I’m not really living it.

It wasnt those. It looked the same as the Specter that was mentioned and I found a picture of. I just dont remember the name Specter.
I remember at the time it came out it got quite a bit of attention in the gun world because at that time rigs were big and cumbersome. Like TT was making a vest that carried 12 freaking magazines.
Im almost wondering if Specter bought the design from the company Im thinking of.
I thought it had a name, and now it's bugging me.

Im guessing this was around 02-05

I've got something like that.  Tactical Tailor made it and it is about the size of the Mini Mav, but I think the mag pouches were sewn in.  It's got webbing on the front of the pouches.  I put a couple pistol mag pouches and a zippered gear pouch on it.

I'm at work now so no photos.
Get both is the answer.

You can use the bungee to really secure it too.

Those are my favorite kind of gear, small, easy to wear and pretty comfortable.

I actually like the Chicom chest rigs for my AK's. I put those nylon three-prong fasteners on the waist ties.
Lol @ the retarded folks

"Blowtorch and Corkscrew" What a great tactic.

Now that OP mentions it I’m pretty sure I know what he is talking about, and I also don’t think it was the spectre.
