So here is my first gear review and I decided to start with
one of the original chest rigs; the South African Defence Forces M83 chest rig.
The chest rig was designed in the 1980’s for use with the SADF in the Angolan
Bush/Border War and has seen use in the SADF, SANDF and PMCs since then.
Chest rig have seen increased use in both the real world and
airsoft due to the increased movement they offer the user. Chest rigs also
offer the user to sit in vehicles while still having access to mission
essential gear. They also make carrying a backpack easier which the M83 was
designed to do with the M83 bergan.
