I've put this rig through three elk seasons across the Selway-Bitterroot. The leather has broken in perfectly and the quick-swap cant is the smartest piece of hardware I've run. Nothing rattles, nothing fails. This is a working tool, not a showpiece.

I carry in grizzly country in the Bitterroot and I needed a rig that wouldn't fail when it mattered. The ratchet retention hasn't let go once. The magnet clip for a spare mag is genius, fast and silent.

Twenty years on the line and a avid outdoors. I've seen gear fail at the worst times. This chest rig is the opposite of that. Fire-resistant thread, full-grain construction, and it fits under a pack frame without fighting you.

Ordered the chest rig and a bag of Big Ed. The coffee hit on the first morning out of the tent and the rig hasn't left my kit since. Travis answers his email and actually gives a damn about whether it works for you. That's rare.

Fly fishing the North Fork with a sidearm is always a compromise, until now. The quickswap cant let me dial in the angle perfectly and I can swap out for bear spray if needed. The leather started forming nicely in about two weeks of daily use. Exactly what I was looking for.

The Duff Monster is a legit good dark roast. I brew it on a jetboil and it works. suprisingly smooth for a dark roast.
