Review of the Condor Recon MCR5 Chest Rig
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- The Condor Recon Chest Rig is designed with built-in stacker/kangaroo style mag pouches to allow the user rapid, seamless access to mags for faster reloads with up to six AR/M4 mags and six pistol mags. The adjustable and removable flaps on the pistol pouches also allow the user to keep a knife, multi-tool, or other small accessories close at hand while training or on duty. This Condor Recon chest rig setup also features an interior mesh pocket for safely storing items close to the body. Swivi-Lockster quick-release buckles allow you to remove the chest rig quickly and easily when necessary. With grommets for drainage and padded cross-back shoulder straps, this Condor chest rig also helps you stay comfortable and dry.
You can believe me or not, don't care. I've spent my entire career in the SF community. I have and I know a lot of other guys that have a few Condor products. Mostly some random small pouches and insert panels, stuff like that. I have a lot of expensive big name kit and that stuff is typically very good but when you need a random pouch for some specific need I have to say that Condor has a wide selection of items that fit specific needs that a lot of brands don't have and frankly Condor is a value. If your life doesn't depend on it, Condor gets the job done. Ask yourself how much is too much to pay for the right pouch to hold my multi-tool? And quit calling yourself fat. You're getting out there and staying active. Good for you man!
Yeah I believe you ! The quality for concerned civilian use and budget friendly as well . Now if I was devgru or something of the sort where I’d be jumping high altitude jumps into the middle of the ocean riding the wake in to infil I could see after a short while this failing on me , but for urban and suburban use , in warfare, civil unrest here at home . This gear is sufficient !
Feel free to message me at Instagram Raven.20 Bravo anytime you guys !
@user-tu6fy7kr1y honestly the chest rig that I’m about to post in a couple days is the best I have felt personally . Belt really doesn’t matter to me as long as the buckle is some what quality . I use a just a generic belt at work and it does just fine in all situations
Literally wearing mine as I watched this. Same color! OD Green all the way! I have Army buddies that used condor while overseas. Airsofters do use them but it doesn't make them specifically "airsoft". Loved that outro. Mine is more like Love God, Guns, and Green! 😂 To each their own 👍🏻🤙🏼🇺🇸
These rigs are on Temu for under $20. I set up mine for under $50 with an admin pouch, gear pouch, light pouch and holster for my xds. 😀
I got a deal on an SOE micro shotgun rig on gunbroker for $77 delivered. My plate carrier with plates was $210 delivered from Ebay. Ya don't have to spend a lot to be prepared.
Dang dude that’s awesome ! I say spend the money on “ mission essential gear” such as light , rifle , pistol , and clothing but as far as the other , there will be enough laying around if we are still alive
I have the same rig, I run a radio instead of a pistol , otherwise pretty close to the same set up. I also have the mcr6. Both are good. That upgrade to the hydro pack makes a huge difference.
Yes sir I agree . I bought one I’m about to do a review on in the next week or so . I wanted to try the minimalist approach for like a scout pack . Make sure to subscribe and select all notifications . Also check out my Instagram I post updates on there
@@Raven_20Bravo already done good sir!
How has it held up over time
Very good content brother! Thank you! Keep up the good work!
Great quality on the video.
Israeli bandage and tourniquet and wound packing gauze❤❤❤ quick and easy. Hopefully enough. I carry an unopened bleed stop trauma kit in the car and a tourniquet in a holster mounted to my center console right next to my leg. And a full first aid kit with another tourniquet on my diaper bag.
I think its funny people saying stuff is "for airsoft" like the only difference is magazine weight right? You're just carrying stuff and running
For MY purpose of these items , it’s perfect ! The stitching , quality of fabric , accessibility to contents are prefect ! I’m not jumping out of airplanes , into salt water and coming out into sub zero temperatures. My whole reason for these videos is finding gear for people who don’t have $10,000 to build a kit and still get the most efficient gear that can work for most concerned citizens. If people want to buy more expensive gear , they can . I don’t gear knock people because it’s what they can afford and at least they are trying get gear and train .
Great video! I wish you would have put it on!
Thank you ! I’m going to start making “shorts” of the gear on
I got one that was unstitching on the corners and one strap was hanging on my two threads . I hope the one bc they send me in its place isn’t defective
The side mag holders are usually for "oh shit" situations
Should have used the Condor vertical gun holster.
Great entry level chest rig but the pouches stick too far out doesn't let you go prone just sold mine for the new seven pocket chest rig from condor I also have a few other Condor rigs great gear thanks for the video
Thank you ! I have a few new videos coming out soon!
Do these last ?
I ended up cutting the stitching for the 4 outside pistol mags. Ends up fine, you can use the Velcro for a flag or wtf ever
I agree!
I have had the recon rig for some time now. I also have the hydro pack harness. It's all solid equipment. I'm 5'9'' 180lbs, 33-34 waist in pants. Just a tiny pooch of a belly. I have to cinch the recon all the way up if i'm only in a shirt or bdu type top. It just doesn't have enough adjustment for thinner guys. The shoulder straps are bottomed out on mine. More of a belly rig. Now if I add clothing it's great. I find the hydro harness makes the fit even looser though by a small margin. Personally speaking the whole setup sticks out too far. It works but I like the MCR6 rig better. I took the pistol pouches off and used the left over velcro closures to give solid retention on rifle mags. Added 2 small pouches either side for ammo on stripper clips and a blowout kit. I like it better than original. I have a belt for pistol and ammo.
Great prices and good gear. Don't listen to the bs. Plenty of guys made it out of the sandbox using condor gear of some kind. I have a mayflower rig now but I still have the old condor stuff and it still works.
My question as being a budget citizen at the money , can one of these hold 25lbs or do you have a weight limit you’ve pushed it too more or less
Those on the back can be used as radio pouches
Great idea!
Wish i had this while on active duty instead of the lbv💩
Have had mine 10yrs now always loaded not with airsoft crap .
Been good to me held up well.
Then again im dodging the old lady now "not incoming" rounds
Good video. 🇺🇸FJB 🇺🇸

Are you chewing gum? Ok as a former army ranger 11B/B4, you're wrong. Pistols are better than rifles for clearing buildings and other cramped areas. Six mags is not excessive.
First of all thank you for your service to this country and for keeping myself and my family safe at night ! Secondly no sir , I had a cough drop in because I had just gotten over some sort of illness either strep or the flu and my throat was severely raw and it hurt to even breathe much less talk . I'm sorry for the audio of me popping my lips while swallowing ,I didnt notice it until I posted the video . I can see your point , but my pistol , in my opinion is my secondary weapon . I feel that my rifle is my primary and will be utilized as such. I do believe in training with my secondary just as hard as my primary but will be used only for the reason i purchased it. I train at home and our " locations" in CQB with my rifle. I run buttstock in enough where I can cut corners and manipulate myself around well enough to only have to use my rifle. I am not disagreeing with you, But it is just my opinion . I have never been in the situation you have been nor the training you have been , and my opinion may get me killed if I ever have to use it . I am comfortable enough with my "training" to only have to use my rifle.
@@Raven_20Bravo wow. That was a very civil, humble, and well worded response. Thank you for that. Very gentlemanly of you. What a lot of civilians don't understand is that sometimes a pistol is the primary weapon. Also the noise factor and muzzle flash of pistol versus rifle, especially non suppressed. I lost some of my hearing because of it. A 9mm or .45 is less likely to ricochet and kill innocents, or even your own team members or an asset than a 5.56. Also consider speed of acquisition and reloading. For those reasons I prefer a pistol inside, and I prefer enough magazines to not only achieve the objective, but deal with any problems on the way out and the way home. Personally I never saw the sense of carrying a two pound pistol, even on patrol, with only two spare magazines. These are only my opinions drawn from my personal experience. Again, I thank you, and I wish you well.
@@dirtyscoundrel2013 Oh , no problem! This is also why I started this channel , Not only to share content but to learn and adapt from real world guys! I would look absolutely silly arguing from my back ground against someone who has/is putting in the work in the real world . I want to grow this channel big and eventually do this full time . I have been slacking on posting any further videos due to the reality of being limited on extra money for new gear and we lost the big range area we were going to shoot videos at . Now I am going to try and manipulate my training to see if I like the feel of running pistols in CQB. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention as it is a real world practice and S.O.P of other agencies and military training .
@@Raven_20Bravo That's awesome. I look forward to seeing your work. Best of luck to you, sir.
everything cool but fr throw that tq away
Bought some SOF-Ts now
Stop eating processed food
My diet has changed tremendously ! I had gout last year for the first time and all red meat , soda , coffee , and shell fish have been almost eliminated. I’m fasting and using protein shakes for meal supplements to break my fast .
