The MAG Pack (Minimalist Assistant GunneråÕs Pack) was designed as a more efficient way to carry and deploy ammunition for two man machine gun teams. It is designed to be used by the Assistant Gunner much like an assault-style pack. This pack provides a no non-sense, highly efficient way to carry 600 rounds of 7.62 NATO belted ammunition organized in easy-feed trays instead of loose belts or ammo cans. The MAG Pack also features a small pouch for sustainment items (holds 2 MREåÕs), a system for carrying the M192 tripod, and a removable, configurable sleeve for carrying a 100 oz. water bladder. The front flap is equipped with heat resistant material for storing hot barrels and is fitted to carry both the short and long barrels for the M240. Pair these features with the patent CHIEF frame* - the heart of the CHIEF Patrol Pack currently on SOCOM contract - and youåÕve got a truly revolutionary load carriage system for the Assistant Gunner.
