Condor recon chest rig and H harness

[@mattg8730]

I used to be an 11bravo I would run out if places to keep my slim jims. Water, ammo and slims. Great video brutha

[@Jarhead6]

cool rig bro! Thanks for the mention and like you said it is a lifestyle for us!

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Your welcome brother. Appreciate you watching and sharing.

[@kenparnell4297]

That's the thing with Condor, while they aren't dirt cheap, they aren't military quality, but looks like you and I have found that their quality is good enough for what we're gonna use it for, and no we aren't going to war. However, I use mine for hiking, hunting, and off trail exploring and it's great for that, I have some Condor products that I have had for a number of years and they still are just fine. Yes, you can spend more money, and unless you have a lot of money, it's gonna take a while to get your rig together. Oh, one more thing, "H" Suspenders, harnesses are always so much more comfortable than the "X" style. There is no comparison, so I completely agree with you on that one.

[@psalmreader909]

Ken Parnell I agree, but even "military quality ” materials are almost identical, and a lot of it rips just as easy. It’s a hit nd miss , bcs majority of the materials in both are made in China or elsewhere just some assembled in U.S. or stitched..

[@Xandrosi]

Condor rig just arrived. Thanks so much for this recommendation! Considering getting the hydration pack too. So far and as is, this doesn't seem to be riding into my neck, but I've yet to run it with weight. If I need it, great to know that there's an easy fix.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Xandrosi Glad you like it man. Not a bad kit for the money for sure.

[@grizz1070]

I know this is a older video. But picked up a Condor rapid vest today at a flea market. Brand new with tags for $5.00. Didn’t like the harness as I have a battle belt with a H- harness. Found your video and just ordered the hydro harness. Thanks for the intel.

[@johnmills969]

Good video , thank you. I have been kicking around getting a this rig for awhile. They make a holster for this , but I prefer my pistol to be lower. I'm thinking of running a war belt with it for my pistol , knife and a dump pouch. I have found mounting a knife on the shoulder strap uncomfortable if your humping a ruck. But you get style points lol. The H harness is the way to go , way more comfortable than an x style. I like the hydration pack set up with this rig. Of course this just my 2 cents , but thank you for helping me make up my mind

[@JR-ld1et]

Man I noticed some loosening stitching by the straps and mine is new . How has yours held up so far

[@thriftysurvivor6117]

I stand 5' 4" tall and have a 28" waist. I have everything as snugged up as possible on this rig and it still hangs down to my belt line. It also is very loos around the waist for me. I have an athletic build and find it difficult to find tactical vest's chest rigs, and plate carriers that will go down to my dimensions. I used to have a 44" chest with that 28" waist which really made it tough to get clothes that fit right. Since I took up cycling I'm not as top heavy as I used to be, but still can't find these types of rigs that fit me properly. Given these are made in China, you'd think they'd cater to more diminutive sizes, as well as the big guys they already cater to. Understanding that not everyone is as short or as lean as I am I really would like to see Condor come out with at least a couple of size range options for their wearable gear. I'd really be a happy customer if they did. I find the quality to be good for the price, but size options my one complaint.

[@cthulhu6697]

Cool review. I run AK, hate 5.56 and heard this rig will run AKM fine. A couple of questions : Will 6 more AK 30s fit in the area behind the central mags when you open the tabs? When you stretched it open, there seemed plenty of room for 6 AK 30s. Also, can you run 2 AK 30s on the side openings? If a paistol will fit and the side pockets seem to swallow AR 30s, I'm guessing 2 AK 30s per side will fit. Am I correct with these? I think you can get this rig for 36 now IIRC. See if what I ask will work and let me know if you get the chance, thank you ;)

[@Soli_Deo_Gloria_.]

@Cthulhu So did you ever find answers for all these questions you were asking, in short is this rig good to go for an operator ? I appreciate your time spent in responding, thanks 🤠

[@stevenmorris3181]

Missing full assembly with harness attachment and what it looks like fully mounted. Nice vid. just incomplete IMHO

[@tantojutsuninpo]

Like the video, how does your Kobun snap in place? Mine literally falls out with zero retention in the sheath.

[@warmonkey3080]

as a big man my self I like that i got the verification that it fits me

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Warmonkey good man. Glad it helps

[@esquiredalegunn]

Condor has great stuff. Love the Condor bungee single point sling, haven't found a sling I like better.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Esquiredalegunn They are not bad for a budget option for sure!! Thanks for watching.

[@tristanblake2204]

Exactly the information I was looking for. 👍🏼

[@stevesharber634]

Do you know what your H harness was called? Is it condor brand?

[@rikvartigyan33]

Great review, Thumbs up! Thank you!

[@callsignwillis2958]

finally found the chest rig with the straps making an X.thank you

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Awesome I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks so much for watching

[@stag3t-muspsa910]

are you happy with this rig I ordered this coming tomorrow. ..how did it work out for ya ...

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+stag3t-m 3gun it's great for the money. It's served me well and I think it will for you also. Thanks for watching

[@stag3t-muspsa910]

AKMTACTICAL thanks....happy new year to ya...

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+stag3t-m 3gun same to you.

[@racker7855]

So after a year of use it looks like new....how many classes have you been to in that year and used it?

[@AKMTACTICAL]

I haven't used it in a carbine class but I've used it at the range a good bit. I'm sure it would breakdown a lot soon than most but it is a lot cheaper and if it's all you can afford I think it's not a bad option.

[@pssita]

The H harness is on amazon for like $15 as of 4 Jul 2016... Is that the same one?

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Yeah it should be if it's condor brand

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Gun Enthusiast yeah I like it man. Thanks for watching and sharing.

[@gunenthusiast9201]

Any time bro.

[@dillonmoore5857]

Ik I'm really late to this video but I was wandering what sizes this vest can extend to bc I'm a heavy set guy 6'1 290 pds and will this fit me ?

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Yes it should fit you just fine. It has a ton of adjustment.

[@abqgunner9070]

I like the rig man I have a ? For you how big are you because I am a big guy and just wanted to see for fitting purpose only to see if it will fit my self

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Yeah man I'm 6 foot 3 and weigh about 360. No problems with fitting at all. I'll do an update vid wearing the rig so you can see.

[@abqgunner9070]

Ya I am about 300 and 5.8 so this sound like it wound be perfect for me also was looking for the H harness thanks for the reply and help with that I'll subscribe and look out for a fitting vid.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Cool man thanks!!

[@derekneumann]

Could you fit SKS stripper clips in those ARmag pouches, ya think??

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Derek Neumann I don't see why not. Probably would fit just fine

[@derekneumann]

Thanks dude! Just ordered one along with a ambi pistol holster. :)

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Derek Neumann cool man!!! Enjoy.

[@jasonscott8373]

Great review, haus. How's the rig been working out for you??

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Thanks a lot man. It's been doing what it's supposed to do for sure. It can be a little bulky in the front in my opinion cause of the double mag pouches but just for the range man I think it's great. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

[@lyonnlamb9160]

Thank you Brother for the review! I too am a big guy and I was searching high and low for someone out there who reviewed a chest rig for my size. What I also gained from your review was the knowledge to the H-Harness Hydration Rig for this particular chest rig you have. Q: Is the hydration rig from Condor?

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Thanks so much for the kind words. Yes it's called the hydro harness and it's made by condor. Here's a link for it. www.amazon.com/Condor-Tactical-Hydro-Harness-Coyote/dp/B00BUS12OE

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Also have a second vid up showing how to hook it all up. And the fit

[@lyonnlamb9160]

+AKMTACTICAL Thank you very much Brother! Ok, awesome I'll look it up right now. My set up will get to me in Alaska 11/02/2015 along with the bladder and hydro harness. Again, thank you and looking forward for more reviews from you. Take care - keep safe!

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Lion Lamb your welcome man, thanks for the support

[@erikibarra7259]

Nice vid brotha.. Keep it up!

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Thanks man. I appreciate you watching

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Condor recon chest rig and H harness

[@connecticutoutdoor8028]

Great review man

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Thanks I really appreciate it

[@phitausundown]

Wish they made one of these in a more compact version. For us smaller dudes or those who just don't wanna a 50 lb rig

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+phitausundown check out original special operations am/m4 micro rig. A little bit more money but so much better kit!!! Kyle is getting 1 soon hopefully and we will be doing a full review. www.originalsoegear.com/collections/micro-rigs/products/akm4-micro-rig

[@phitausundown]

+AKMTACTICAL that's what I'm thinking size wise. I love SOE gear, just not sure if I wanna drop the money on a piece like that (as I doubt I would get much use out of it). More or less to stage some mags Etc in my car or to throw on when I go to a buddies farm for shooting.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+phitausundown you might want to look at battle belts, you can get into those for not a lot of money and for just a little use might not be a bad option.

[@phitausundown]

+AKMTACTICAL thanks. I'll look into those.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+phitausundown no problem

[@gunenthusiast9201]

Nice rig.

[@jimskurka1840]

The part of the Lifestyle you have not adopted is the most important part. It's the physical part of it, it's that 50lb ruck, its the forced Marches, it's getting in the water, it's 500m Fins to your ruck. That's the Lifestyle, can't have one without the other. Well I guess you can but then it's just Hollywood and not where the rubber meets the road.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Jim Skurka your right, can't argue with that. It's the part of this lifestyle I struggle with the most, just taking it 1 day at a time and shooting for the best. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Khorton014]

The last time I went to the range with Michael he was down 7lbs in a week. When I was working twelve hour shifts with the guy in the hospital he was taking in 2L of water a day. I'm a big guy and I drink nothing but water. Some people have just always been big. Michael ain't ever been little. When's the last time you tried to live off of 1200 calories a day? What's your thyroid panel look like? Are you insulin resistant? The dude spends time at the gym every week. Get the fuck outta here with that ruck shit. Exercise is exercise homie. Michael is a nice guy, and for the most part so am I. But what we share on this channel is simply a part of our lives. And if I was in a gun fight I'd take Michael all day everyday.

[@jamesknowles92]

its not really an expensive lifestyle. an expensive gun is what $1500, or if youre nuts like 5-6 grand. I know several guys who have dropped 3 times that in car parts.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+James Knowles there's no doubt about that, but if you shoot a lot it can get pretty expensive plus of you start taking training classes your looking at 1200 bucks a class at least. It's definitely not the cheapest lifestyle but not the most expensive either. Thanks for watching and commenting

[@astrogirl1usa]

Dude, you are so out of shape; you couldn't run with a rig on for more than a block - if that far. That gear will not do you any good, if your own body betrays you. Get into fighting shape!

[@AKMTACTICAL]

Thanks for the not so kind comments. It's funny to me how someone is so quick to throw the first stone when you don't even post any video or pic of yourself So for all I know you aren't in FIGHTING shape either. The difference between you and I is I don't care what shape your in and I'm not 1 to judge someone that I don't even know. Since you felt the need to not care about someone's feeling i'll inform you that I am on a diet and in the gym working out now because I do need to get in shape. Thanks for your comment, please consider subscribing to the channel so you can see my progress, since you are so concerned with bashing my weight or don't, doesn't matter to me. 1 lesson I can give you, learn to be a little kinder to people, it goes a long way in life.

[@WayneOldham210]

+AKMTACTICAL thanks for informing us bigger guys where to get this equipment. good luck with your weight loss. I know it's a struggle.

[@AKMTACTICAL]

+Wayne Oldham no problem at all. Diets going good, 30 pounds down so far.
