Looking at getting this chest rig. Not generally a big fan of chest rigs- too hot, but I like the fact that this one has an "open architecture" making it much lighter weight and cooler. I posted this first in the training forum and got no responses.

I would recommend posting in the Tactical Gear section in the armory forum.  



I cannot comment about that specific chest rig, but I have worn the SKD PIG chest rig in temperatures as high as 110°F while on the job and it is MUCH more comfortable than a tactical vest or a plate carrier (even a lightweight one with no armor).  That being said any chest rig will always be warmer than a duty belt or tactical belt.  I generally use the chest rig to supplement the belt and replace it for carrying gear (unless you are looking from a home defense SHTF situation, in which case it can replace the belt, but I'd rather have armor and a PC on at that point).  I have used some other blue force gear products in the past and have always found them to be excellent.

What kind of response are you looking for?  I don't see a question.  

I like mine.  Super comfortable and packs down tiny.  I have it set up with some helium whisper GP pouches to wear while hunting so I can access certain things quickly without having to dig into my pack.
