 Does anyone know what brand of load bearing gear the two SEALs are wearing on the left? Also what gear do you use to carry your mags? |
Kind of looks like the Eagle Plate Carrier www.eagleindustries.com/prd_detail.asp?ProdID=344&CatID=78&SubCatID=16 |

I've just got a belt with some cheap pouches to carry a few 20 rounders at the range. I have no use for a chest rig. If you cannot find an answer to your other question here, might I suggest the Tactical Gear forum? |
gratuitously reposted from other post  EAGLE MLCS "Rhodesian" RRV chest rig/platecarriers yes that is one platform I use among a bunch of others. What do you plan on doing? You can get the Blackhawk clone of the rig, only thing thats functionally different is the BH units actually use a 1.5" buckle on the shoulder straps to the body of the rig. And typically these are more cost effective for an avg civilian user |
Thanks for the replies everyone, never have seen much eagle gear used in my area being WA, mainly tactical tailor being so close and their reputation high.
It would be used to replace the current load bearing gear that I presently have serving in Iraq. I've been more or less using the same gear platform for the past two years (tactical tailor 1 or 2 piece mav and x-harness), I just changed over to ACU pattern about a year ago. But the one thing that I do not like is that I do not have the "bib" to be able to mount more equipment up front instead of the sides. Being that I am only 5'8 if I use the "bib" for the one piece mav and x-harness it sits to low to be useful. Also when you wear this equipment for long periods of time, I've been on missions that have last well over 24+ hours, wearing the kit I need a vest that is comfortable well having to carry the weight. |
The pouches appear to be from Eagle Industries. |
