"Got this a while ago but wanted to make a review on it now that I have experience wearing it
If your area is hot, get a ice pack to put in the belly pouch, if you're in the cold, this practically is another layer and helps keep the heat in.
For the most part, the rig is good for those using gas blowbacks, there's another rig that contains 8 AK mags if you're that crazy.
Another wonderful feature about this rig is that the side pouches can contain a sidearm and its magazines.
You may want to combine this with a mole backpack possibly in case if you want to use this in place of a plate carrier

"This is a great vest for starters, I use it for CQC and it works great. M4 mags will fit in the pouches very well, the vest also has 2 side pouches which are great for holding speed loader. Over all the vest feels good on my body the the adjustable straps work very good.

"Great rig, tough materials and assembly. I highly recommend having a mag dump bag, makes mag switches way faster. Keeps stuff pretty dry too in the equipment pouches when it's raining.

"This is a great chest rig. Don't be deterred by the price, just assuming that it's cheaply made, because this thing is sturdy. I've only played one game with it so far, but I've worn it around the house with weighted objects in the pockets and pouches to put it to the test, and all it's done is solidified my view on it. The pouches can fit two magazines, as advertised, but with better fit than you'd think. The admin pouch runs down the whole rig, allowing you to put a sidearm, map, BB's, gas, extra magazines, you name it. One problem I have with the rig is that it has an awkward fit to it. I'm 6'2" and 185 lbs, and I have to have the crossing shoulder straps at the tightest possible setting and it still wiggles a little bit. But aside from that, if you're looking for a quality chest rig at an excellent price, you definitely want to get one of these.

"Borrowed it for my first big game, liked it, then bought one for myself. held my M4 mags well with plenty of room to pull them in and out (didnt have to force them in or yank them out) holds a pistol very well in the accessory pouches if you have no holster yet, also behind the accessory pouches are two more pockets perfect for quick disposal of magazines or clips if you have limited time to reload.
Pros:
Perfect for beginners
Comfortable
Get way more than what you pay for
Not pricey at all
Holds plenty of junk
Doesn't sway when running
Perfect for large outdoor games
Cons:
VELCRO but no biggie because the mag pouch
Straps are bungee so all you have to do is stretch
Them to the side.
Not too good for CQB matches because the Velcro gives your
Position away.

"overall, this is a good chest rig for starter or non serious player
- can fit (nicely) 6 AK or 6 m4 mag. G36 variant mag should do fine
- no MOLLE applicable (accecpt for the shoulder, you can add a SINGLE subMG MOLLE pouch on each side. or anything that has SINGLE strap or velcro.
- decent price with discount
- machine washable on cool temp [attempt at own risk]
- should be wearable for skinny body type (i wear a size S izod jacket to fit it with its strap all tight, a bit wobble if i dont)

"I really like this thing this size fits alot, I got it yesterday and it works perfect in cold weather I really recomend it to anyone who is looking for a cheap good vest

"Almost perfect for the price.
Pouches are massive. Can fit my SGR12 mags. I also stuff them so my m4 mags sit up high enough. Adjustable bungees are nice too.
Side pouches are very nice, but a bit annoying and sticks to itself. Can fit a water bottle or 3000 BB's easily.
Middle flat pouch is neat, I can fit a sidearm in there but it's odd to access.

"Picked this up in person a while ago. It's decent for the pricepoint
Pros:
-Massive side pockets, they fit big water bottles
-Tons of storage for how light it is
-Also fits m4 mags (I stuffed paper towels in mine so they sat higher)
-Very large at maximum size, would fit over other carriers or jackets
-Can adjust tightness of bungees with hook&loop
Cons:
-The way the top of the side pouches fold drive me crazy, they get in the way of the edges of the mag pouches
-Hook&loop on the side pouches is also a bit annoying, gets caught on itself a lot
-Admin pouch is a bit tricky to access. Small opening for a larger area.
-Stitching, especially on shoulder straps doesn't feel the sturdiest.

"Simple and lightweight. Decent for it's price but obviously there are better higher priced options out there.
I love the center chest pouch for storing keys and credentials.
Only major con I have is the center dot buttons for the chest pouch are known to tear off in time.

"Great Chest rig for the price! I would highly recommend this to anyone who is putting together a budget russian kit or anyone who runs an ak.
My only complaints are that sometimes the mags can be kinda hard to get out, but no were near bad enough to make it un useable. And the vest doesn't fit as snug around my chest as I would like but that may just be because of my personal build.
All and all its verry worth the price.

"It's perfect for a starter chest rig and it's not just for AKs. I can fit 2 AK mags in each mag pouch and 3 M4 mags in the mag pouches. There's plenty of room to put BBs, water bottle, snacks, tools, extra battery, etc... In bouth utility pouches. It is a little darker than the picture shows, more like a coyote than just a regular tan but I like it better that way. I'm skinny frame 6'1" 155 and this thing is loose on me. When I tighten it up all the way it just feels to tight and uncomfortable. I usually wear it a few games til I start sweating real bad and then take it off because it just slides down my shoulders a bit. I don't use the velco restraints, I run it with the pouches open and it keeps my mags in there nicely.
Pros:
Very lightweight
Perfect for hot summer games
Color is more of a coyote (could be a con to some)
Lots of room for all kinds of mags and accessories
Perfect for new airsofters with no gear
The price
Cons:
Not meant for skinny people
Adjustment straps can be a pain
Fits really flat (can make it hard to get into admin pouch
Overall:
4/5 It's a perfect starter rig and the price is a steal for it, just not meant for skinny people like myself
