Ammo can was great, but looking for a way to do the same without having to fabricate something on the ground and something we can train with here before deployment and take with us.

Saw these on OPTACTICAL.com, wondering if anyone has used/trained with them? Only for the backseat, I know, but can have xtra mags, IFAKs, etc in arm's reach without touching your kit.

I searched extensively and did not find a thread covering this item. Thank you for any comments.

gagners,

If you have riggers within your unit you can MAYBE get them you make them for you. You just have to add your own Pouches or Mag holders. Also a case of beer or bottle or 2 of something helps out too.
