About this deal

I’ve had a lot of viper gear of the years, from tops to belts, holsters, camo tape etc. it’s also been an entry level brand suitable for new players or established players on a budget. The Viper Special Ops Chest Rig caught my eye as it was cheap and very small. I decided on getting one in OD which I would then craft. Complete your loadout with our high quality Airsoft tactical vests, chest rigs and plate carriers. In a range of colours and styles, they’re ideal for added realism and extra storage. Please mark "Returned Goods/Merchandise" option with no (zero) value when filling the Customs Declaration Form.

Obviously my old rig is crafted, so I’ll need to craft this rig at some point, I’ll just end up spraying it and dirtying it up a bit. Due to the position of the chest rig and the need to go prone, the craftign was very light, it was mainly there to break up the shape from the solid OD colour. Having had my rig for a while, I’ve been happy with it, both in terms of quality and how it has performed. However it’s always nice to have a few rigs in case one gets damaged, if you don’t want to swap setups or simply as a spare to loan out to friends.

We're classed as excellent on

The rig was secure, allowed me to move around freely without the weight shifting or items moving, which was one of the main issues with my H-Harness setup. You hardly feel the weight on your shoulders, especially when using the additional shoulder pads. Once I have finished with the initial base layer painting and left it to dry, it was time to start the crafting, much the same way as I had the H-Harness and leaf suit. As a matter of course the state of the art airsoft soldier needs more than that: Equipment like Knives, Lights, Headsets, Slings and cool looking Patches are a must have for everybody. At Military 1st we hope you would be completely satisfied every time you shop with us. Occasionally though, we know you may wish to make a return. Despite the Viper Special Ops Chest Rig having all the pouches integrated, you have a lot of ways you can store items if you’re smart about how.

I used this setup in the recent Operation Oblivion 3 event in France with the Diversant suit, I have to say I was extremely happy with the setup. A plate carrier is a rig that is designed primarily to hold armour plates, be they SAPI type or others. These rigs are much larger and heavier than the average chest rig, even without dummy or real plates inside. For Airsoft purposes these rigs offer theadvantage ofprotection from BBs and additional MOLLEspace, not to mention thatthey look cool as all hell. If you want your Airsoft loadout to give off a special forces or COD vibe, this is the rig you will need. There are dummy plates available that are hollow, meaning your plate carrier doesn't have to be too heavy, and these offer the advantage of protecting you from close range pain whilst still allowing you to hear the BB impact, and as such call your hit. Whilst carriers without a pouch attachment system are available for specific loadouts (under a chest rig), most plate carrierscome covered with MOLLE loops, allowing it to double as protection and load-bearing equipment. Plate carriers tend to cover only the vital organs, meaning you do have a decent level of protection when airsofting but it generally won't cover much of the stomach area. A good plate carrier to start off with is the NUPROL RTG tactical vest. It comes with plenty of pouches included and being equipped with the MOLLE system it is modular enough to adapt to any changes in playstyle you may make in the future. Our tactical vests are built for the battlefield, offering realistic Airsoft alternatives based on true combat versions. Ideal for beginners or anyone not looking to build up their own rig, our MOLLE combat vests are complete with features such as mag pouches, adjustable straps, admin panels and more. With the Operation Oblivion event coming up in France and me running my new Pencott Diversant suit, I wanted something that would compliment the setup and the slightly more mobile gameplay I was after.With the rig now crafted I wanted to see how much I could fit into it, here is what I managed to store: Considering there’s not a huge increase in sizer between the two rig, the additional space you aging and stuff you can carry is quite a bit more. conclusion

With the rig crafted, I wanted to somehow holster my Mk23 on in, much like I have with the H-harness, to do this I simply made a cut out on the bottom of the far right utility pouch, just making this simple cut allowed my Mk23/Sig P226 to drop comfortably into the pouch, just under my arm. Removing and holstering the pistol is nice and easy, while being very secure. The rig gets a thumbs up form me and will be certainly something I continue to use and adapt going forward.The plan is to get an additional pair of this pads which will br crafted, this way when I run t under something like the Diversant suit or a traditional cloak, I can use the standard shoulder pads, but when I run my crafted leaf suit, I can use the crafted shoulder pads to add the depth and break up my shape. Having this modular ability is quite handy as I could have 3 setups: As you can imagine, my setup is tailored for the marksman/recon role, so I wanted something small and lightweight, but with enough space to carry what I need for a skirmish. Now considering how small the rig is, that is pretty impressive. You can actually store more pistol magazines in the kangaroo M4 pouch section, I currently use 1 pistol mag in each M4 segment, but you can actually squeeze 2 in, however for ease of access I kept to one. The rig was secure all weekend, I didn’t have to readjust it at any point, there was no risk of any of the items falling out, it was great! I really think over the last few years they’ve upped their game in terms of quality and the general ides they’re putting out.

Select your preferred return option: a FREE Royal Mail return label or a paid via Hermes, Collect+, DPD or UPS You can easily tell by the design of the chest rig it was designed with M4 users in mind as it comes with the below pouches intergrated:The reverse hook and loop panel can also be used to attach a below pouch such as Viper VX Dangler or Scrote. This rig will end up being crafted and I’ll likely buy some more inserts for 7,62 and use this setup for when I run the SRS/SSG24 or an assault rifle, with the VX Utility Rig staying as my rig for the VSR/Tac/SSg10 loadouts.
