Helikon-Tex Range Line, Training Mini Rig

Design is great. The zippers are durable. It’s lightweight and holds a lot of stuff while still maintaining the ability to be low profile.I’m more into the woods so I can keep water decon kit with first aid with 4 loaded pmags. Holds 4 pistol mags as well. Great for hunting, backpacking. Whatever you want it for.

I was looking for a chest rig and wanted something that wouldn't allow me to way myself down with things that I didn't need. I had started doing research and came across Helikon-Tex Range Line, Training Mini Rig. I asked a lot questions on AR15com and Reddit about Helikon-Tex and their products. It was these forums and their information that gave me the green light to buy a Helikon-Tex product and I'm glad I did. The stitching is top notch. It looks strong and even throughout the rig. The material is of great quality and authentic Cordura too. Funny thing about this rig, I took it out of the plastic and tried it on and it was nearly setup for me. I had to adjust the straps very little to get it to ride where I wanted it.Would I buy this rig or anything else from Helikon-Tex? Yes. Yes I would in a heartbeat. I feel like this rig will take a lot of abuse and far more abuse than I will put it through.If you are looking for a micro rig, look no further. Give this one a try. I don't think you will be disappointed. I know I'm not.I will add one thing. If you want something to go onto a plate carrier. This one will not attach to it. The strap across the waist has a different hooking method. You can run it with the two clips and then the back strap around your waist. It wouldn't be the traditional style that a lot of other brands are doing. I kind of wish this one had that but then again, I do have a PC setup already.

I've worn this to the range a couple times and also did a short scouting/plinking hike out in the nearby national forest with it and it wore very well. No tight spots, no rubbing, no hangups, and it fit well with a pack on. It is easy to adjust if you wanted to let it out to wear over a fleece or plate carrier. The build quality looks and feels excellent and so far it has stood up well to strenuous use. I removed the lower pouch because I didn't really need it, but if I did any longer hikes or hunts with it, I would put it back on for a first aid pouch. My only complaint is that there are no keepers for the straps. I solved this issue with OD duct tape, but some elastic bands or a velcro strap would have been nice.The upper pocket holds a notebook and pens accessibly and is also good for snacks (the important things you know). The mag pouches are easy to access when running drills, the rig doesn't get in my way when transitioning, and it is comfortable when firing from a prone position. The pistol mag pouches are a little tight around my 17 round Sig mags, but that will probably break in as I use it more. The retainer straps on the pistol mag pouches are long enough to accommodate extended mags as well as multi-tools, flashlights, etc.I haven't had any gear or clothing in any Pencott patterns before, but I found their Greenzone pattern to be spot on for the PNW. I hung it up on a tree and walked off a few yards and if I didn't already know it was there, I would have never seen it. I think if you went head to toe in Greenzone you would be nigh invisible in this environment.This setup is most definitely worth having around if you spend a lot of time at the range and would be great as a lightweight scouting/hunting rig as well.

Good quality and functional. It is what I was seeking for a quick reaction kit.

This chest harness was more than I expected. It was very comfortable, more comfortable than it looked like it should have been. The only caveat that I have about it is… It might be sized for smaller statured people. I am a big guy (about 6’2”, 250 lbs) and it wear this with the straps stretched out as far as they will go. Overall it is a GREAT deal for a GREAT price.

Very satisfied. The color, accessories, zippers & stitching are just as advertised.

Great simple and light rig for taking to the range or staying light on patrol. Adjusts easily, and comfortably sits on the body. Great place to start if you're just getting into things or simply want a lighter option than what you already have. I give it a solid 9.5/10

If you're looking for a chest rig that has good storage options, is affordable and not made in China, then this is for you. This rig is made in Poland and it seems to meet all the basics right out of the box. The AR15 mag pouches holds mags securely and the pistol mags fit double stack mags easily and can double as a holder for a multitool or flashlight. The pouch at the bottom fits a IFAK easily and there a pouch at the upper end that I use for admin. items like a waterproof notepad and pen. This is a good entry level option for those looking to carry gear without the weight of a plate carrier.
