USMC Tactical Assault Panel (TAP) Chest Rig | Coyote
Unlock ultimate modularity with the genuine U.S. Marine Corps issue Tactical Assault Panel (TAP). Sourced by Forest City Supply, this is the complete system (NSN: 8465-01-581-5668) that allows a Marine to seamlessly transition their loadout from a standalone chest rig to a fully integrated plate carrier panel, providing unmatched versatility in the field.
Two Systems in One
The genius of the TAP system is its dual-mode capability. As a standalone unit, the included H-harness provides a stable and comfortable platform for a lightweight reconnaissance or patrol setup. When the mission calls for ballistic protection, the harness detaches in seconds, and the TAP clips directly onto the front of a USMC plate carrier (like the MTV or SPC), providing immediate access to a full combat load without the need to reconfigure pouches.
Mission-Ready Layout
The TAP system is intelligently designed with eight integrated pouches ready for action. Six central pouches are perfectly sized for M4/M16 magazines, while two larger outboard pockets accommodate radios, GPS units, medical gear, or other essential equipment. The panel's interior features two full-length mesh pockets for storing maps, notebooks, or other administrative items, keeping them secure and accessible. This set also includes the complete and often-missing buckle and strap repair kit, ensuring you can maintain and adapt your gear for any situation.
The Complete System Includes:
- 1 x Main TAP Panel with 8 integrated pouches
- 1 x Detachable H-Harness Assembly
- 1 x Complete Chest Rig Repair Kit
- 1 x Kwikpoint Instruction Card
Specifications:
- NSN: 8465-01-581-5668
- Color: Coyote Brown
- Material: 1000D Cordura Nylon
- Main Panel Width: Approx. 27 inches

This isn't just a piece of surplus; it's a complete, adaptable fighting system. Whether you're a tactical professional, an airsoft player, or a collector, this TAP system represents the peak of modern load-bearing design. Trust Forest City Supply for authentic, field-proven American gear.

from 155 reviewsStill need a bladder for other H2O holder
The sleeping bag was in good condition and well maintained. Will get more years of service with it
I jumped the Gun when I reviewed the 5pc Load Carrier giving it only 3 stars because I could not adjust the size. Forest City showed me how to do it with a video. The last load carrier I had worn was the Vietnam Era LCE/LBE.
Thank You Forest City for another Great Product!
Still need another hydration bladder for 0ther one i hav
Everything is good. The pack came fast and was in good condition. A little bit of staining on bottom, but barely noticeable.
Products arrived on time as described. Will be shopping here more
Very fair price for a sleep system in great condition, used it the next day to sleep outside below freezing on a camping trip. Performed just like I remember from the Army. Thanks for a great buy!
This is a great service offered by Forest City Supply; the ability to select the grade of your items. I have ordered the same poncho liners from Sportsman Guide for the price of Very Good grade, just to return the liner due to holes and tears. The Good Grade liners make fine dust covers for your spare beds. I am very pleased with my purchase.
It's exactly what it was supposed to be. I needed something to fix my ICS seams where the tape has peeled off. I haven't used the sealant yet but I'll more than likely be buying another complete repair kit just in case I need it and don't have it.
Great condition I'll definitely be a return customer
Great selection of supplies and easy to find. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
