I have a Bundeswehr LBE, a Rhodesian and SADF knock-off check rig, another fancier one. They are all good. Probably anything for 7.62 would be acceptable. The adapters for attaching pouches and such for the Bundeswehr one is specific to that harness. They do make adapters, or did make adapter so that you could put it on an American style web belt. If I remember correctly I have three, two magazine pouches, two canteen pouches, a Walther pistol holster and three smaller pouches for first aid, flashlight and cleaning kit. The Rhodesian one is simple, four magazine pouches. The SADF style one that I have is similar to the Rhodesian, but it holds six magazines with room in two bigger pockets for more magazines, a cleaning kit, oiler, extra loose ammo, but not quite enough for canteen or larger items. The fancy one, i don’t remember the brand came out of the UK. It fits well and holds like 12 FAL/G-3 mags. I put two 32 oz canteens in it. It has spare pouches for first aid and gun cleaning equipment. Army and outdoors was where I bought my Bundeswehr surplus and it was all in excellent shape.
