Which Erebus Chest Rig is Right for You?
When you're gearing up for the mission, your chest rig isn't just gear—it's your lifeline. At Erebus Industries, we don’t build "one-size-fits-all" rigs. We build load-bearing systems designed to match your role, your environment, and your loadout preferences.
Whether you're a team leader stacked on a door, a recon scout moving light through rough terrain, or just someone who wants a grab-and-go setup that works, we’ve got you covered.
MKIV Chest Rig
Best for: Platoon Leaders, Radio Guys, and Full-Kit Operators
If you're in charge—or just carrying half the squad’s comms and med gear—the MKIV is for you. It’s our most capable rig, built to carry everything you need and then some without compromising speed.
Side wings let you load out radios, IFAKs, or GP pouches without adding bulk up front. It’s stable, intuitive, and built for real-world pressure.
Why it’s a perfect fit:
You're leading from the front, coordinating movement, or running specialized gear like radios and optics. You need more real estate and better organization—not extra weight or complexity.
What it carries:
-
3x 5.56 + 2x pistol mags (inserts included)
-
Removable dangler admin pouch
-
Side wings for radios, med gear, or tools
-
Placard-compatible front panel
-
Built-in MOLLE for further expansion
MKII Chest Rig
Best for: General Use, Rapid Response, “Truck Rigs”
The MKII is the Swiss Army Knife of our lineup. Whether it’s stuffed in your truck for emergencies or fully built out for field duty, it’s a compact, capable platform that covers your bases without overdoing it.
Integrated mag pouches and a front admin pocket give you just enough organization, while the removable dangler adds flexibility without clutter.
Why it’s a perfect fit:
You're not always in full kit, but when things go bad, you want a rig that’s ready in seconds. The MKII is great for LEOs, contractors, or anyone who needs a dependable, low-drag setup with solid mag storage.
What it carries:
-
3x 5.56 + 2x pistol mags (built-in)
-
Center-mounted admin pouch w/ internal storage
-
Removable dangler pouch
-
Lightweight X-harness with MOLLE
Slick Rig
Best for: Vehicle Crews, Trainers, and Modularity Junkies
The Slick Rig is exactly what it sounds like—clean, fast, and incredibly adaptable. It’s the most modular rig we offer, making it perfect for guys who want to fine-tune their loadout or stash something in their truck without it taking up space.
Need to throw it over your kit and go? Done. Need it to become a placard for your plate carrier? Easy. Want to add wings, danglers, or pouches? The Velcro and MOLLE are waiting for you.
Why it’s a perfect fit:
You want a blank slate. Whether you’re in and out of a vehicle all day or constantly reconfiguring your gear, this rig adapts faster than anything else we offer.
What it carries:
-
Triple 5.56 mag insert (included)
-
Laser-cut MOLLE + Velcro on front/sides/harness
-
Converts to plate carrier placard
-
Velcro backing for wings, admin, and danglers
Tracker Chest Rig
Best for: Recon, Long Field Exercises, and Lightweight Armor Integration
The Tracker isn’t just a chest rig—it’s a lightweight recon system with armor capability. It’s the only rig in our lineup that allows you to run a 10x12 ballistic plate, giving you protection in low-vis or extended operations where full armor is too bulky.
Add in the padded harness, MOLLE front panel, and dangler pouch, and you’ve got a comfortable platform that moves with you, not against you—even on 12-hour patrols.
Why it’s a perfect fit:
You're covering ground, staying light, and staying quiet—but still need protection and mission-critical storage. The Tracker’s for the guys who are out there long, far, and fast.
What it carries:
-
3x 5.56 mags (integrated)
-
Removable dangler pouch
-
Accepts standard 10x12 ballistic plate
-
Padded harness for extended wear
-
Laser-cut MOLLE + Velcro for light modular expansion
