SADF Niemoller Webbing

Johan Niemoller was a crafty Recce known for creating new webbing and kit for his fellow special forces operators that surpassed the issued kit. Later much of it was copied by the SADF and turned into Pat 83. You can very clearly see the direct lineage in many of the items. You will also see minor differences between Niemoller sets because they were special ordered and could have changes for each soldier who purchases a set.

This example has velcro magazine pouches on the front, large pouches on the side that are secured by a cinching strap only for quick access, two grenade pouches on the straps and a buttpack (as is classic for Niemoller webbing)

These rigs were a favourite of Executive Outcomes, browse the gallery for examples of different variants in use with PMCs.
