Midwest Armor: Hilo Recon Chest Rig

[@MidwestArmor]

0:19 elastic mag inserts are included - will make sure site is clearer

[@yeetusfeetus4280]

Just the fact you watched and replied to the video and now offer the option for no loop on the front I'm definitely gonna buy from you guys. It's hard to find companies who want to listen and evolve

[@MidwestArmor]

@@yeetusfeetus4280 thank you 🙏 it’s how we have built our brand and also products. We take feedback and implement it!

[@brandonm6052]

I just came to search for this rig. It's like the updated version of a TAPS I was looking for. You guys sell esstac inserts, are those an option that works in this also or just stick with the elastic? I'm not high speed so not super needed. Also are these shipping with the matching velcro yet? I hope you take this as a compliment, ya'll seem like an S.O.E and that's a pro for me and a reason you'll likely get my dollar.

[@MidwestArmor]

@@brandonm6052 thank you for the kind words! Elastic inserts are included with the rig :) we probably should also list them separate in case folks need more but yes they are included at no additional cost! And yes the matching Velcro is all setup now so your gtg we even have it in M81

[@brandonm6052]

@MidwestArmor now to convince the wife!! I would've ordered with borrowed money if it was marpat woodland...you know to match my ilbe rucksack haha.

[@robertristow3322]

This has become my fav chest rig hands down. I have a Spiritus wide GP pouch on the front molle panel area and two smaller gps on each wing. The thing hold so much ammo, radio, supplies, map, tic tacs, glow sticks, and ball park franks.

[@MidwestArmor]

Thank you! Appreciate all the feedback

[@rdh1648]

Great breakdown. Got one of these for my pc. Used two grimlocs to secure the sides of the rig to my cummerbund’s molle. Did this after cutting off the rig’s og buckles. The setup has worked well so far, but time will tell.

[@MidwestArmor]

Would love to see this setup can you send us a photo?

[@breakingcomedytv]

@@MidwestArmor if he ends up, sending you a pic of that set up, are you guys going to post it on IG?

[@MidwestArmor]

@@breakingcomedytv if they end up sending and give us permission to absolutely!

[@MomentsLost]

Thanks for uploading, I've had my eye on this rig for some time now and it is a great help to see it in a video.

[@MidwestArmor]

Awesome! Let us know if you have other questions!

[@mattm3562]

I think another option would be to add some hook to the back of the rig both for use as a placard or to add expander wings for a radio

[@EODFish]

It has rear velcro.

[@mattm3562]

Ah my bad. Missed that

[@MidwestArmor]

@@mattm3562that was a big request and we made sure that was on :)

[@johns9888]

Did I miss why all the velcro on the front? Brush, weed collectors or velcro attached pouchs?

[@sectorseven07]

There are velcro backed pouches out there. That's all I can personally think of.

[@simonedaniel]

If only it was multicam Velcro - otherwise this is a 60% coyote brown chest rig haha

[@MidwestArmor]

Heard! We now offer an option online where you can decide if you want the velcro on front or not

[@onseki1774]

This rig would be really nice with a spiritus mutant to solve the 152 unavailability issue. Unless I'm wrong this rig can carry ten mags without even attaching anything to the front, that's nuts

[@ChickenShackIRL]

11, actually! 14, if you opt to double stack mags using the admin pouch like he was talking about. Wild how capable this chest rig is.

[@DD_4]

Could you review the Surus Gen 4 H Harness?

[@EODFish]

I’d love to

[@alvaroeloredo]

Man that rig gives you so many options of how you want to set it up, very modular with so much potential for the end users needs. The price is extemy reasonable, if it really is made in the USA, i say the words "really is" because after seeing London Bridge Trading getting exploited for their shenanigans, i am leary of nylon companies that say "Made in the USA".

[@MidwestArmor]

Everything we make is 100% USA made, when we say USA made we mean we make it in our own SHOP in Knoxville, TN, using our OWN employees, we never outsource. We get all the raw materials and produce the entire rig, and for the matter of fact ALL our nylon gear, in house. Any and all our nylon gear is made here in Knoxville and no where else and all using US materials. No cutting corners here, just good ol' American elbow grease and hard work.

[@alvaroeloredo]

@@MidwestArmor that's great to hear, I appreciate your response and will be looking forward to doing business with you in the future.

[@tagairsoft]

Some Multicam velcro and it will be amazing

[@MidwestArmor]

We got you - this is coming soon just waiting on the Velcro Multicam to come in. Should have it online very soon - and then no more coyote!

[@tagairsoft]

@MidwestArmor well that's great news because this rig is very very nice!

[@MidwestArmor]

@@tagairsoft Thank you! Appreciate the feedback

[@rybaneightsix5085]

4:35 Lmao

[@MidwestArmor]

Yep inserts included, and cleared it up on the description too online!

[@EODFish]

Hurr hurr hurr, dumb internet man accidentally said incels. I need to stop cross posting on Reddit and reading comments on guntuber posts.

[@rybaneightsix5085]

​@@EODFishnah man, it brings some extra levity to the content. Thank you for what you do. Nobody else does it quite the same.
