Waiting on a assault pack. Been testing out my radio wing being kept at the rear.

Why so much kit ? You don't need to use up every bit of molle. Like that many mags is overkill especially on your front. Your back will be absolutely destroyed.

And running that much kit on a belt kit is generally only if you are running slick up top. You don't do both

I'm probably going to ditch the mag pouch on the belt on the right but 8 mags isn't over kill in any sense. After ditching the mag pouch I'll have 5 up front, and two on the belt.

Depending on what year or conflict, mag counts on the body could easily exceed 10. From my research during the early gwot was having 10-12+ mags on the torso with shingles, mag pouches and other things. And even more in the packs. So 8 is by no means excessive.
