Condor Elite MCR3-002 Modular Chest Panel Black

For the price, this is a very fair value. Good stitching and material quality. extremely adjustable for fatso's and skinny minnies, and reasonably comfy unless overloaded. I would highly recommend it for casual sporting purposes but not for duty wear.

Pros:LightweightEnough room to fit 2 mag pouches and one 5" wide admin pouch, or 3 mag pouchesHolds close to your body and high up for maximum concealment.Other:I also play airsoft, but I use this for my chest rig if I have to get somewhere in a hurry, such as my BOB. I used it to play airsoft the other day, just to see how it would hold up as I crawled on the ground across a field and in the woods. To my amazement it held up very well!I would suggest the 2, admin pouch and 1 admin pouch setup for max space you can hold first aid in the pouch, just in case if you run out in your BOB, or lose it.It not really a con, but it is something to be aware about. The straps once you get it fitted correctly might be way to long, so you may have to cut them off, but if you do make sure that they are long enough to extend out if you have to put something under it, like a hoodie. Also don’t forget to burn the edges.Cons:Hard to adjust perfectly, took about 30 minutes with alot of trouble, but once I got it on the right way and enough space in between my body and the chest rig it felt really sturdy.

I got this as an alternative to my plate carrier setup and it seems to fit the bill. I just needed something to carry spare mags where they would be accessible (in addition to the two on my battle belt). I attached 2 double mag pouches to this chest rig platform (for a total of 4 mags) and they fit nicely. I think Condor makes another chest rig platform that could accommodate up to 6 mag pouches, but I wanted this platform instead because I think it would work well with a multi-day pack.

I wear this chest panel over top of my heavy winter skiing jacket when I go cross-country skiing, snow shoeing, winter hiking and snow mobile riding. I attached a Maxpedition Large Tactical Pocket which takes up almost the whole panel, but allows for small flashlights, glow sticks or pocket knives to be carried in the MOLLE loops. I carry winter survival supplies, water flask and snacks in the add-on pocket, which perfectly disguises the fact that there is a hidden velcro closure pocket on the chest rig. In the hidden pocket, there is soft velcro which accepts a Maxpedition SNEAK or similar velcro holster to securely hold a CCW pistol. For reference, Glock 27 and S&W M&P 9C fit in the hidden pocket with room to spare. The velcro tabs that hold the pocket closed are off-set and easily open with proper-fitting winter gloves. The straps on this chest rig are heavy-duty and are easily adjustable from very large to small (I am a petite female) with built-in "keepers" to contain any left-over strap material. This chest rig can also be easily worn in tandem with a backpack or over top of a single strap "sling" type backpack like those from the Maxpedition Gearslinger series. I have seen "chest pouches" made for motorcycling and snow mobile riding that were much more expensive and not as versatile or durable. This is a great foundation for you to build your own unique adventure rig.

I have an older carrier made by Condor that was better made. I had to switch over because of an agency color change, and the newer one, which was the only one i could find online (older version doesn't seem to be made anymore) is not as well made. The older version had padded straps, which fit and wore better. The newer straps are thin and flimsy, which rub and almost cut into your skin while wearing them. With these straps, they also don't move and sit as accurately as the older version. Because of the flimsy-ness, they do not slide as easy and become entangled.

I bought the green Condor chest rig and it has enough room to attach a holster. This one (black) is a little bit smaller and does not have enough room for a holster. I have a set of three double stack mag pouches and a set of three extended double stack mag pouches mounted on it and there is only one molle slot between the two sets. Nothing wrong with the rig, just a little smaller.

I was quite impressed with the quality of the Chest Panel. The Condor panel is plenty big enough for even very big folks. The panel seems to be well made and stitch and will work just fine for civilian classes and competition. With just the blank panel it allows you to set it up the way you want it and then you can reconfigure it if need be for a different weapons platform or use.

I needed a simple chest panel for airsofting as I don't like to carry too much weight and don't want my back to be covered so it doesnt sweat, and this product does the job well. I'm tall and thin so I did have to shorten all the straps to the minimum, but its comfortable and even with a holster and some mags mounted on the front it holds pretty firm and looks badass. Has a pouch in it, but seems bulky whenever you put something other than papers in it. Straps hold great, molle straps are also in place and even. The velcro up top make it great to place a flag or any other patch. Have not tried washing it just yet.
