Wearing a fully loaded plate carrier, helmet, battle belt, a rifle, and a pistol looks really cool. The problem is that that stuff gets heavy, and I’m rarely in the mood to carry it all. The other problem with all of that gear is that as a civilian, the chances of me ever using it for its intended purpose is slim. Something smaller and more concealable usually fits the bill for what I should be training with in order to be proficient with my gear. Chest rigs can be great for carrying no more than you need, and Strike Industries has entered the chest rig game with their Strike Gear Boogeyman Chest Rig and Strike Gear accessories.

The NEW Strike Gear Boogeyman Chest Rig and Accessories
The Strike Gear Boogeyman Chest Rig
The Boogeyman was designed to work as a modular system. The inside of the bag is lined with loop, which integrates with the modular panels you’ll see in a minute. The main compartment houses three elastic webbing loops for rifle magazine organization. The main compartment is capable of fitting an AR500 plate up to 6”x8”. On the outsides of the main compartment are stretch storage pockets made to hold things like multi-tools, pistol magazines, or knives. The bag comes with ITW Split-Bar body buckles, which can be attached to seven different locations. This allows the user to set up the straps however they like. These can even be used to attach the Boogeyman to a plate carrier or another chest rig. The bag is available in Field Grey or Woodland.
