Comments about Mares Mares MRS (Mechanical Release System) Integrated Weight Pockets for Dragonfly, Morphos & Vector 1000 (pair):

I wouldnt have had to replace this item if it was designed better. They detach when you dont want them to and (with a little sand) wont detach when you want them to. Bad design. The new "Dragon" system is much better.

Comments about Mares Mares MRS (Mechanical Release System) Integrated Weight Pockets for Dragonfly, Morphos & Vector 1000 (pair):

Works but doesn't last. The metal rivets that secured the plastic hand grabs to the weight pocket rusted away, exactly like the picture posted by another reviewer. Have to buy a new set now.

Comments about Mares Mares MRS (Mechanical Release System) Integrated Weight Pockets for Dragonfly, Morphos & Vector 1000 (pair):

These MRS are hard tp attach into the pocket. You can't see what you really do and the little red buttons do not provide much confidence.

Any way, you have no choice and they're the only ones that go for some Mares "old" BCs.

So, without any alternative, they do what they're meant to and it's useful to get them in your BC.

Safe

They break easily, come off when you don't want them to and stop working completely if they get a little sand in them. Steer clear!!!
