I guess it depends on units and groups right? Saw several 25th ID guys with full TT MAV rigs, and those had 4x triples, 2 grenades and two mediums or large utility pockets.. or 1 large utility and 1 zippered medic pouch (trauma kit). But thats basically the standard Tactical Tailor MAV rig.... no doubt one could use an empty triple for gear and emtpy the utility pouch and use as dump pouch.Full kit in the sand box was 9 mags plus IV bags and his medic gear per my son.
Extra gear and ammo was stashed when on the hunt.
Sometimes I'll operate from my upstairs home office down three floors to the den, clearing rooms as I go if I get bored. I think we all secretly do thisIf you got a kit set up, try wearing it around the house.
It has 3 mag pouches for a total of 6 mags and two additional buckle pouches (one on each side) for gear.
I have six mags in the 3 mag pouches (2 in each pouch) and a trauma pack in each buckled pouch right now for a total of two trauma packs.
I'm considering taking one trauma pack out and putting other practical gear to help me get away if pinned down, etc.
Also have a front "map" pouch that holds more than just maps. What to put in it?
Alternatively I could put enough ammo for 6 more mag reloads or four pre-filled mags into the buckle pouches instead.
Thoughts?

Go back and reread our post. Hint...and yes.Sounds like a lot of weight. Go take a couple classes, the answer will present itself.

On a serious note
Garand Thumb: "Survival / Recce Chest Rig setup" I would recommend subscribing to this guys channel. Active duty SERE, puts a lot of thought into his gear
If you got a kit set up, try wearing it around the house.
Do normal things like prep a meal with it, eat with it, sit and watch tv with it, use the bathroom with it, try to work on something with it.
Basic point is getting used to how your gear feels and how long you can tolerate it on you and try to run some drills where you need to access pouches or mags without having to stop and look at it. Once you hit that point you are golden.
@jordanka16 ; this was a rig I made out of 1000D Cordura, 6 mags in open top front pockets, plus 2 9x7 zippered pockets for gear such as small FAK, flat items, and so on... basically a minimalist chest rig. Could add small admin style pouch to the front panel, or what have you.... if desired.

And this is a prototype 330D Multicam super slick, minimalist 3-mag shingle/C_bund adapter flap to go on a standard low profile MOLLE Plate Carrier that doesn't come with C-bunds.... I haven't found a good deal on MOLLE C-bund adapters to try on this rig yet. Ideally it would be for those who have 3-4 mags on a belt kit; or plan to have a double mag pouch on left side of C-bund. I know my stitching isn't perfect on this one.... as I have said it's a prototype, and probably not for sale. Was rather interesting to make it where the magazines sits on the back behind the C-bund, out of a single piece. Next one likely thicker fabric, 500D or 1000D, and with taped edges, maybe MOLLE front, but that already exists from many companies... the idea was to keep it slick and low profile

My personal PC/rig being modeled by my wife TT green pouches, 1000D cordura in TT style green, both ALICE/MOLLE webbing, configuration a mix of the old ISAPO (real simple rectangle) and Eagle RRV chest rig (the side wings). Right now I have an 8-mag panel that I made in place of the TT mag pouches, so just the TT medic pouch and large utility pouch in addition to the 8-mag panel.

8-mag panel on a TT MAV with two Large utility pouches. The 8 mag panel is another prototype; I wanted both flap covered tops, and MOLLE/ALICE add-on ability...quite an exercise. View attachment 542571 View attachment 542572
Tourniquet x3 at least.
Have 2 on each plate carrier along with IFAK and 1 on each rifle stock.
Maybe I missed it, but what is the purpose of this PC? Home defense, SHTF - civil unrest - WROL, or a civil war?
My PC is mainly for HD, with a side of other stated reasons. I have 5 AR mags, 2 pistol pouches that can be used for pistol mags or leatherman/flashlight.
Low profile "battle belt" which can be concealed if needed has 2 AR mags and 2 pistol mags, knife, IFAK, and pistol.
Really. Well I could whip one up in either OD, Coyote or hunting camo, if ya dont go for crayola woodland (local source), DCU, or Pencott Snowdrift, but because it is a 1-person job.. it maybe a bit much money for what it is, which is a simple low profile rig, right? You're thinking single layer with maybe a double? I can make a no-nonsense style rig out of an old USMC CB 6 mag bandolier, with MOLLE side panels and document pocket on the back?First one looks just about right, but I dont think I'd need the front to unbuckle, and without the big zippered pockets on the inside, or maybe one small document pocket. I was also thinking of 4 pockets on the inside and running a double pouch on the left.
Its surprisingly hard to find, and when I find something close it's like $250
Chest rigs are awesome if you operate out of a vehicle; or need to be going through doorways and windows... awful out in the open, decent in wooded areas depending on how dense.... on the other hand, belt kits lets your torso and back breath and not get overheated, if not wearing armor... armored up, no real difference from chest rigs except for increased profile.. unless you manage to run super low profile gear (single layer mags on front, bulk on sides underarm and below on hips)Not a big fan of chest rigs here. They raise my profile when I am in prone position and it is more difficult to access magz.
I prefer side hip rigs or cargo pants pockets with separate compartments for magz, like Tru-Spec 24/7.
However, everyone is different.
Thanks, I got two fancy TQ's for
I have multiple setups for different situations.
This one is my non armored general setup. Shtf be it bugging in or out, while staying light. Armor is pretty heavy and only worn as needed. Also have concealed setups for when I have to go into shady situations in normal life.
