While this may look like an early version of a chest rig, it essentially acted as the opposite. Made out of heavy canvas and a durable metal closure system, with two closer straps on the sides, while featuring two pockets on the front and back, each able to hold 25L of gear. One size fits most, as they were meant to be worn over wool jackets. 
 
Crude, but effective, this Korean War Ammunition Carrier vest was designed to carry heavy loads of ammunition from supply to the front, while freeing the arms for greater mobility.
 
An interesting piece of Canadian Korean War history, that you probably wouldn't have wanted to wear during live fire.
