GGG Minimalist Chest Rig

Grey Ghost Gear has released their new Minimalist Plate Carrier. Designed for low profile wear or contingency carry, the MPC is thin and light enough to wear beneath a cover garment or keep on standby in a ready kit.

The MPC features six rows of PALS-style webbing with built-in matching loop material on the top three rows for the option of attaching patches or ID panels. The front of the carrier features a discreet stash pocket for small items one would need immediate access to, such as maps, medevac cards, knives, etc. The MPC is designed as one-size-fits-most, with adjustable shoulder straps and integrated elastic side straps. The inside faces of the carrier are lined with Air Mesh for comfort and breathability. The MCP is available in Coyote Brown and MultiCam.
