"5.11 TacTec Chest Rig" by Nutnfancy

[@SuperC457]

Another great video by NUTN!! Dude you better never leave youtube...I wouldn't know what to watch!! You gotta do a vid on the 5.11 Saber 2.0 jacket...PLEASE!!!

[@montrealr-spec3772]

Hey Nutnfancy, a friend of mine told me about your videos here on youtube and I've been hooked for 2 weeks now. Only 1000+ more videos to watch! Thanks for the support on all the gear. Every bit on information is greatly appreciated! Keep going strong!

[@chopers49]

For those tgat question why he put his holster on the left side.... He has long arms which would make it hard to draw from the right side. There for making it more comfortable and fluid motion as he reaches to draw his sidearm. ... im just sayin! Thank You Nutn, you are the MAN and I appreciate all your hard work and dedication! !!!

[@everfly411]

I know nutn gets allot of hate and isnt respected as much as allot of others in the community, but truth be told he has gotten hundreds if not thousands into the outdoors and firearms, me included!

[@oldannyboy37]

One of those would go really well with a Battle Belt.

[@mattpelter]

Can't say I would but this rig BUT, I think that this review has given me the insight to recommend it to a person wanting chest rig.

[@Myrmidon26]

The use of elastic straps for securing the magazines reminds me of the "10 speed" system used by Blue Force Gear. I purchased one of their SR25 chest rigs after watching your review and have been very pleased with it. I've been using the SR25 to hold AK variant mags and it seems to be holding up very well despite not being made for them. Thanks for the great info, I've been watching since 2008.

[@everfly411]

You should review Travis Haley's new chest rig that he just released, he has mentioned your videos many times on facebook and given you allot of credit. The least you could do is give his new rig a solid review, and it looks promising and its available in some really awesome patterns like Kryptek Highlander!

[@AbearDesign]

please do a video on lightest weight (but durable) front/back plate carriers. (particularly that would work well with dkx armor). Thanks for the great videos! keep it up!

[@dedzerg]

It's nice when manufacturers listen. Looks like a decent setup.

[@sea-2366]

This 5.11 chest rig is just what I been waiting for and I will copy the configurations you made. Thanks Nutnfancy!!!

[@KeatonEggleston]

I am very much sold. Just another reason why I am part of the project. Thanks Nutnfancy.

[@ipponutoo]

You're getting pretty good with the homemade modifications...nice job!

[@fckurvtc]

Nutn, is there any chance that you could make a video comparing a few different mag pouch options? Thanks, keep up the great work!

[@GrnEagle1]

will we see this in a gun and run video? i do like it. but could you have used the molle attachment on the out side of where you put the kidex holster and attached the kidex to the molle. fewww .

[@Bastion71]

Thanks, I have that Kershaw, have had it since 1987 or so! I need to get me a sheath like that for it.

[@BeyondExcursion]

I am actually in the market for a new LBE but I am thinking I will end up just going with the TAG plate carrier. If I needed an LBE where I wan't going to run a plate system then I think id probably go with the 511 tac vest instead of this. Cool option just not for me. Thanks for the review.

[@StuntManGS500f]

Movement is life. Being mobile is power i run this rig all day every day. like you said i run plates underneath.

[@111212jsasj]

Love the rig reviews and would love to see more of them guys!

[@Markamazoo]

Hey nunt, have you checked out what myself and many of my buddies call the "Low Vis" rigs, such as the PIG Bringandine, Rouge gunfighter LVR, LBT slick? the option to integrate a chest rig with buckles and then ditch it is very easy on all of the mentioned above, and they can still carry plates.

[@MrSlickPulla]

man nutn i'm glad you did this review because i've been going back and forth with buying one of these chest rigs thanks slick

[@nutnfancy]

Testors model paint, fill lettering, wipe off. May take multiple layers. -Doodle

[@rick4544]

Im recently in the market for a good chest rig... low and behold, you do a chest rig review! luv ya!

[@Premium_Herring]

I have been looking for a chest rig for awhile now. I think this rig is my answer.

[@CivilianSheepdog631]

Not bad the only thing I see that might be a problem well two things that is.. #1. side by side mags makes for mag slope after you take one mag outta it's position. #2 This might be a little noisy w/side by side mags clanking into each other if your trying to be covert. I do like up self inflected pistol pouch set up nice touch for sure. And to be able to have a little body amour plate is better than knot. Once again great vid's from you brother. :)

[@tbilisicentralv2]

u could use bungees for securing the pistol too...also, put a hole through top of the flaps, and pull them bungees through for rifle mags, while keping the flaps, maybe covering pistol mag pouches...i wonder though, can u "intsall" the kydex holster on a right side of the rig? or is too much of an interference, with pistol grip poking the side and ribs?

[@badfishgood]

Looks like an ok rig. I'd still go with a Blue Force Gear Ten Speed. It's the best quality/no frills chest rig out there. I even think you did a review of it.

[@5pointstar78]

Very funny!!! I was just eyeballing this rig an hour before the review posted. I'm a LEO looking for active shooter gear. Not entirely sold on this rig, I'm looking to augment my normal patrol duty belt. No need for chest mounted pistol however I would like something I could adapt to a shotgun should I chose to forgo the rifle. Any direction?

[@BeachBow]

Good review. I've actually been looking at this rig for the reason you mentioned. Wanted something light and mobile. I'd drop like a rock if I had to carry 16 lbs of plate on me. LOL!! Glad to see you back in the swing of things!!

[@bonferoni6664]

Great handy work with the pistol pouch.

[@Strelnikov10]

I imagine they would. Most chest rigs (unless they specify) are made to run both. It looked like there was plenty of room in there.

[@spanxx87]

Id love to see a tnp review for the new 5.11 tac-tec plate carrier!

[@pathyskeeter]

What an awesome rig. Great call on the holster too. Nice G22!!!

[@CPLBSS88]

probably not well...just guessing by the way this vests uses the elastic loops inside. There are better options for the same price.

[@dawgstar01]

Hey, could you please do a video on integrating a fixed blade knife into your carry system?!!!

[@af22raptor23503]

Great Review and Vid. Natchez Shooter Supply (natchezss) has all G-Code holsters and accessories on Clearance holster as low as 9.99 the tactical SOC holster 59.99. G-code system is awesome with having the attachment hip, thigh or inside the pants and the holsters are 100% interchangeable.

[@akihide.uchida]

You should try the new HSP chest rig-- in the demo vid, Mr Haley shows how to integrate a G-Code holster that was specced specifically for the rig, and it seems to have all the same features and more that this 5.11 one does But regardless, I've been missing some LBE vids from you, keep up the great work dude!

[@hhiser6206]

How about a load out vid to support a Glock 40 cal, RFB 24 in 308 and Mossburg 500 or KSG (if you can find one under 2000) 12 gauge. Condor comes to mind. Can you do this with a pack, Alice, Kelty,or interior frame pack. POU think bug out load out. No plates keep things light. not run and gun but sheepdog run and protect. Love the vid,s and the concern for the country. Thanks for your service!! P.S. no screws Pop rivets!

[@_stephen1844_]

Thoughts on the haleystrategic d3 cest rig?

[@1wILLTELL]

I love Nutn's nicknames for gear.

[@Cruizerstylin]

NUT 'N Just bought this "Tic Tac" rig in STORM (Grey) and its color is great in an urban environment. QUESTION TIME: On you review you have the pistol holster all the way across your body in the left pouch... why not the right pouch???? Why not use a bungy on all of them? (Yeah I know it runs deep) but is there any other reason(s)??? THANKS!

[@wehrwolv]

You mention sapi plates, but why wear body armor and not a Kevlar or ACH?

[@MultiMrNoone]

Did you find much reason against putting the pistol on the other side? I would be curious to try that so the grip isn't getting in the way as much.

[@anand604]

Begs the question sir - what IS the best one stop shopping for value conscious SHTF rig that has all the goodies...pistol mount, pistol mags, light/laser/knife, rifle ammo/mags, soft armor (rifle plate add-able), water, etc.? ie plate rack? I am just not satisfied with my component system at present and am starting the research to form a fully integrated system with one-stop shopping. Please advise? What is the HOF - OSS RIg?

[@caddilacjim]

Great video Nutn and nice setup on that chest rig.

[@NailBunny29]

Love it, number one question... Will it fit AK-47 Mags? Been looking for a while, only decent option right now seems to be the phalanx

[@DangerClose105]

u may laugh at airsoft but u save $10 on evike plus 20% coupon codes that are up almost every day

[@tylerewing7591]

I got a condor mopc in multicam from them for like $70

[@BringerOfD]

hey Nutn, what are your thoughts on "battle belt" type systems? for example 5.11 has one so does Condor and Tactical Tailor.

[@LIV2500]

Please do an Airsoft/paintball video, thoughts on its use for training/recreation.

[@jarraojiujitsu]

Great work Nutt, im from brazil and i learned a lott from your videos. Here we cant carry guns, just iff you are a bad guy or police officer. Great job.

[@TheOneManArmory]

completely agree about the last sentence, the first got my attention though.

[@rhodey2002]

What needs to change on the conceal carry shirt?

[@drzmanproject]

And this is why you're the best gear reviewer going. Love the idea about heating the utility blade. Was a little disturbed by that one dude with the 5.11 vest, lol. . . btw, was there a reason you put the holster on your support/left side? Seems like on your strong side the grip would be out of the way of the mags. Maybe on the right it would sit too high for your right hand to be able to draw it easily?

[@richkestrel7416]

"...flash bangs for an upcoming airsoft tourney..." I nearly spit my Spaten Oktoberfest all over my PC. :-) With the modifications you had to make, I couldn't help but think that the system really isn't a great one. I like what you did, and wouldn't by a chest rig or vest that does have some way to incorporate a handgun (secondary weapon) and a couple of extra handgun mags, but I was left thinking this rig just didn't hit the mark... at least for me. But excellent review as always. Thanks!

[@eggsoe24]

I really like this vid and lbe. This and ur last two remind me of how tnp was a few years ago. Keep it up

[@chaosstars315]

what is kind of attachment you have on the vest for the hand gun?

[@ZentetsukenVII]

Shotgun load out video please! Us shotgunner can still run-n-gun because we have tons of ammo still!

[@AirForceAce3571]

cool review Nutn, love 5.11! I use their RUSH 12 for a daily commuting backpack to & from work, and love the TacLite Pro Pants & shorts! Will have to look into this option. One question though, all things considered, would you prefer this chest rig or the Phalanx Type 4 from TAG that you previously reviwed? Would've been cool to see some comparison in vid, but cool if u can answer here too. Thanks dude and take care!! ROCK ON!

[@kasetankensei]

Why not put the pistol on the right side? Since you don't like that bumgee mag slot anyway, could've saved that velcro cover on the left side. I think maybe because either you are left handed, or maybe it gets in the way of the rifle if you put the pistol on the right side

[@B05T0N22]

I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like a TAG (Tactical Assault Gear) plate carrier.

[@sirmorluk]

Doodle. Can you please make a video on doing this. Thank You, Some guy

[@albi131]

I don't have a freaking idea why you attached that holster to the left pouch...

[@adaman04]

EXCELLENT integration of the holster. I'm going to do the same thing with my Eagle rig and a turd Blade-tech holster I have.

[@brucejupia4268]

is there a chance you could review the ballistic plate carrier by global defense supply group? they've got nsn #'s and all, but how would they stack up against a condor mopc?

[@blackhatch46]

for around $90 you can get an eagle or tactical tailor rig that is US made and much better quality.

[@akitzm1]

What Technique did you use for the white lettering on your G22?

[@850SheepDog]

Nutn, can I buy this as configured? lol, I have a G22 and totally want the nutnfancy configuration!! LOL

[@APRigs]

Why dint you put the pistol on the right side?

[@brwcty59]

Thanks, Nutn...Gotta get one of these on my short list!

[@kevw25]

Tic tack rig looks sweet.

[@jondoe-hr9wn]

Thanks for the vids it was a slow day on patrol today

[@MoneyBlowinFast]

Review the OSOE micro rig nutn!

[@MrJbuddrow]

I'm going to train physically and tactically in it at my private range. Also it would make me feel a little safer with shtf type situations. I'm also on a budget because I have a wedding coming up and am tight as EFF on cash.

[@ianarno]

Nutn, what are ergo's like with AK mags?

[@Daniel_Scott89]

I LOVE the US Palm chest rig, it is simply amazing.

[@striderwashington9916]

Great review, love the product! Keep 'em coming.

[@caseykurtz6785]

Hi I wondering if there is women's sizes for me im 14 so I was thinking I need a girls

[@filipinophreak]

I was thinking I needed u..

[@MrJbuddrow]

Hey nutnfancy, I'm 170lbs and 6 foot tall. I'm a skinny boy. I'm looking for a plate carrier that is cheap but doesn't sacrifice any durability or comfort for the fit. I dont care about looks and want full torso coverage to allow the use of side sapis as well. I've looked at rothco, condor and voodoo but am just wondering which company has more user friendly, cost effective equipment? Also is eBay safe to buy armor plates off of? Thanks brother have a good one. Mrjbuddrow

[@rex101898]

I was kinda upset after Nutn said he was kidding at the beginning.....I kinda wanted to see Nutn using flash bangs in an airsoft game.

[@jw112965]

How do AK mags run in the rig?

[@AkaJohnnyT23]

How would this fit with a b.o.b? I am currently running the 5.11 rush 12 backpack as my b.o.b. I am trying to find a chest rig that wont conflict with my b.o.b

[@USpatriot741776]

Dude, great review. Hey you should continue your "Tactically Squared Away" vid. Do some updates or something. Hooyah.

[@Splathammer]

hey Nutn which would you recommend, the 511 rig or the bfg ten speed

[@SingleMaltSmash]

u threw me with that flashbang joke in the beginning haha.

[@francisjoly3862]

do you know if it will hold sks stripper ?

[@turn7gaming40k]

Could you review some HSGI products?

[@ThatOGDon]

Yes it would. The average person won't be popping rounds at your head (despite what they think) and will most likely result to center mass shots when placed under the duress that is inherent to combat. In a WROL situation if you're hit in a lethal area outside the plate (head, neck, etc.) you'll die fairly quickly if not instantly. Why suffer as the open chest wound progresses into tension pneumothorax as you lose consciousness and eventually die struggling desperately to breath the entire time?

[@osiris8637]

@John Wizeman he did a video comparing AKs to ARs you might wanna check that out

[@HamletNOR]

Jokes and kidding around a LITTLE bit in this video... I like that. Good stuff :-)

[@GRACEVENTURES]

Nutnfancy im starting to wonder what the civilian sheepdog would do without you. keep up the good work brotha!

[@Hornman120]

Yet another good review video. Thanks!

[@ericdecker7376]

Its looks like a squared away rig i like it!

[@axeandturtle]

how about Ak mags?

[@KarlUshanka]

Just to close the loop with you NF: I am in the market for a vest and narrowed it down to two choices - this one and one other one. On your recommendation and on price, I chose the 5.11. I ordered it in late December. In late January I emailed their customer service asking for status. I got nothing back. Today I called to cancel the order. The rep said my online order "didn't make it all the way through" their system. Whatever - I'll find a vendor whose system works and who can reply to email.

[@johnwizeman3894]

Where's the AK love Nutn'? All we see lately is AR and M14

[@dadajackyo]

Dude, you r getting better. I know that probably makes you kinda hate me, but the personality makes me happy. Short vids r gud too, for the dumber of us, u know?

[@KJOSCOT]

Who makes the pack @ 2:15?

[@ArmedCivilian556]

nice setup

[@jtctdmb]

This or CONDOR MCR5?

[@1958Eagleeye]

Nice rig, thank you Nutn.
