MA25: Utility Leg Rig

As a Nurse in the Oregon Prison system, I have had the opportunity to field test a variety of gear for use in emergency situations. This drop rig has performed very well as an off-dominant gear holder. Because of the long lab coats the Department of Corrections has deemed our "duty uniform", I was forever dropping my gear on the floor from my coat pockets or fumbling under the coat to reach a radio or glove pouch. This drop rig has allowed me to carry, not only a radio within easy reach, but gloves, CPR mask and accessories, flashlight, key chits, field dressings and numerous other necessities I use every day. I have put over 400 hours through this rig and despite some stretching of the webbing, has performed without fail. It takes some tweaking and creative mounting to get the gear securely fastened to the rig, but it can be done. the leg retention strap would benefit from better non-slip backing and would be more versatile if the quick release buckle could be moved to the front for off-dominant wear. Overall, a good rig and an excellent buy for the money.
