It got a bit of attention because at the time it was quite unusual being so small and simplistic. It had like 3 mag pouches right on the front with some small sections of webbing on each side for little misc gear. Im not looking for one, I just had a random thought and now it's bugging me because I cant remember what it was. |

Also the BFG 10-speed rig, though it was 4 mag pouches: ETA: It might have been the UW Gear Minuteman rigs, those had a bit of a following on this site years ago: https://uwgearinc.com/minuteman-4---6---mini.html  |

Excellent little chest rig. I used to have the one for the AK mags as well. Wish I had never let that one go. |
I can’t stand it to think my life is going so fast and I’m not really living it.

It looked the same as the Specter that was mentioned and I found a picture of. I just dont remember the name Specter. I remember at the time it came out it got quite a bit of attention in the gun world because at that time rigs were big and cumbersome. Like TT was making a vest that carried 12 freaking magazines. Im almost wondering if Specter bought the design from the company Im thinking of. I thought it had a name, and now it's bugging me.  Im guessing this was around 02-05 |

I've got something like that. Tactical Tailor made it and it is about the size of the Mini Mav, but I think the mag pouches were sewn in. It's got webbing on the front of the pouches. I put a couple pistol mag pouches and a zippered gear pouch on it. I'm at work now so no photos. |
Get both is the answer.

As always, have nice day!

Those are my favorite kind of gear, small, easy to wear and pretty comfortable. I actually like the Chicom chest rigs for my AK's. I put those nylon three-prong fasteners on the waist ties. |

Im almost thinking I was still in school and think it was from around the same time the Lightfighter RAID assault pack came out. |
