I have two very interesting chestrigs. One is the well known 2009 UCP-D, the other is a 2006 dated Multicam rig. Lots of similarities between the two, but several significant differences. Especially the design of the velcro straps that secure the magazines and the setup for the shoulder harness.
The seller sent me the wrong rig. The one pictured had the same contract info, but was made by The Specialty Group, Inc. That is the same manufacture as the UCP-D rig. This means at least two companies were producing the Multicam rig.
The thing that really perplexes me is the date of the Multicam rig. 2006 is after Multicam was initially rejected in favor of UCP, 3 years earlier than the trials which led to the adoption of Multicam. The contract number appears to indicate these are both experimental items. Anybody hazard a guess to explain the Multicam rig?
Some detail pics of the differences:
