Arktis – Anniversary 42 Pattern Chest Rig
Back in the late 80s I acquired a 42 Pattern Chest rig from Arktis. As it was in DPM I didn’t wear it once I left Germany but it solidified by love for chest rigs under certain conditions. Eventually I sold it off while at Ft Bragg and replaced it with an OD US made rig but I’ve often missed it.
Fortunately, Arktis has introduced a limited run of this classic chest rig. They’ve added a Velcro loop panel on the admin flap to attach the included 40th Anniversary patch. The only other difference is better materials than were available back then.
It features three Velcro closure flapped mag pouches (holds 3×30-round 5.56 magazines, 3×20-round 7.62 magazines, or 2×30-round AK Mags) and two Velcro GP pouches along with a large internal map pocket.
It remains a highly functional and rugged, lightweight piece of kit.
