Vik GN gives a thumbs up to Arktis M170 Chest Rig for those who want a minimalist fighting load and willing to spend more than regular Chicom chest rig. The Arktis M170 Classic chest rig, renowned for its classic, simple, and durable design, gained prominence during the first Gulf War with the British forces. Its fame further escalated through its use by SAS's Bravo Two Zero and Special Forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The Arktis A192 Stowaway Shirt is available now at the Kommando Store and here is an overview video they made... "The Stowaway was designed to be as light weight as possible with a very minimalistic design. The shirt snugly fits into a little pouch located at the back of the neck and is secured with a drawstring & toggle. This can be removed if being worn with chest rigs & packs.

UK-based tactical gear maker Arktis has a spanking new website. For those who appreciate their products, this new site is still a simple design but easy to use. You can check out their products for LE, Military, and Medical purposes. Of course their popular sniper smock, ghilly suits, and bags are still being produced. You can order from their UK site, or via their international distributors in Europe and North America.
