Howdy,
The MAV is a nice piece of gear. I don't have any firsthand knowledge of the Strike harness but it seems to be popular. I think the big thing here is that one has the ability to carry plates built-in. If you want to be able to carry them at some point then you've solved the dilemma! I never bought a MAV because I always wanted a built in capacity to carry mags, but I loved the MAV's simplicity and design. Fortunately, Stuart Wilson at EssTac solved my dilemma by releasing the BOAR  .As for the bib real-estate, more and more people seem to be using it only for ID panels. I've never mounted gear up there because it has a tendency to get in the way if you have to draw mags or other materials from the area below it. |

i had a BHI rig and have a Mav(i'm selling it). the BHI is more comfortable and more robust in construction. the Mav has more room i believe. it wraps further around. i prefer the BHI over the Mav but i would buy Eagles version given the choose of the 3.

Looks like the MAV has more real-estate on it. Can some one confirm this?

the TT 2pc MAV is the way to go...Made in the USA.
if you want a plate carrier get the Eagle PC with the cumberbund. |

Well I don´t have a SR yet but I did a little research since I am on lookout for one to.
But here is waht I got: The HSGI stuff seams to be nice...but just if you wear it with the plates. The little Weesatch could be ok without the plates. But you would need shoulderpads anyway. The HSGI rigs come with a backplate/molle carryier. Also soem say that the HSGI rigs are not so front-heavy. The STRIKE comes with shoulderpads but no back. For $60 extra you can get a back (platecarrier/moley) to. This one is rated to be ok without plates. If you carry 6 or more mags it will get fron-heavy...but with a plate it will get heavy anyway. Militarymorons.com is a place to take a look on the strike. He put a bladder on his backside of the STRIKE. Right now I am looking toward the STRIKE. I can carry it as a ChestRig only, I can add a Backplate-kit if I want to, I can just put a cammelbag on it without plates, I can carry a ruck with the SR strapped on... But he HSGI comes with back-side and inside-mag.pouches allready and it is called to be not so front heavy like others...when wearling no plate.... I don´t know....yet he Hope you guy´s who own all this gear can tell me if I am right or wrong....still looking for the right gear. Take care. |
