    Nicely done. What are the details of the chest rig? Looks nice.

    The chest rig is just something he cobbled together.

    Great pic! Trophy class smile on that young man.
    In other news, my son is an Army MP stationed in Fairbanks AK. Heading out this weekend on his first moose hunt. He came up empty handed on his caribou hunt a couple weeks ago. Let's all wish him luck!
