It's increasingly popular.  Lets you get to your pistol when seated in a vehicle and such, which leg rigs are very bad for, and various manufacturers here in the US are now making chest rigs of one sort of another.  I kind of like the Safariland set up, I think (haven't really put it through its paces yet) that is modular and lets you easily (zero tools) swap your 6004 or other holster from a leg rig to your body armor and back as needed.

I like that set up alot, very cool. It could definitely help alot when in a vehicle like you mention, and I could also see how it could make transitions much faster as well since the pistol is higher.  Im taking FP some time this summer, I wonder if i'll see any military/leo's running that setup there. I'll ask some of those fella's about it.
 
You pimpin' any of John Willis' gear at the moment HS?

Multi-cam seems to be increasingly popular. I was pretty impressed with some of it myself. Suprised to see an ACU in the mix as well.
