About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The Utility Shoulder Bag – BLACK is a tactical pouch. A lot of tactical pouches attach with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE pouches have just recently become popular in the last several years due to tactical developments and gear efficiency focused products. They are the top choice for securing military design pouches to range gear, airsoft vests, deployment bags, and other kinds of equipment. MOLLE straps provide a flexible method for users to select the mounting location and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on gear where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location. The only constraint becomes which pouches to apply and where to position them.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and identifies the pouches, panels, and straps which are employed in the MOLLE equipment system. Now that we know what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s check out some of the most effective MOLLE pouches you can put on your airsoft gear starting with airsoft weapon magazine pouches.

MOLLE tactical pouches come in all colors and camouflage patterns. Common pouch colors include: black, tan, OD green (olive drab), foliage green (sage), ranger green, and grey. Typical pouch camouflage patterns include: forest, desert, A-TACs, Multicam, ACU (Army Combat Uniform), digital, and others.

About the Condor Brand
The Condor brand is pretty popular as a quality pouch maker. They create really good quality airsoft equipment and other gear. You can find answers on the brand’s site if you have concerns about their airsoft pouches or customer service questions.
Kinds Of Condor MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are usually called ‘basic’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ because they are quite basic in design. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for extra security that is generally attached with Velcro. In addition to being offered from lots of tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most budget friendly ways to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the standard mag pouches with a few modifications. As the tactical pouch name implies, this pouch design removes the flap leaving an open top to place and remove magazines.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the latest and most sophisticated type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag access easier and mag reloads faster than before, this style of tactical pouch uses MOLLE attachments so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Condor brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag style use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized tension bands (depending upon producer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the tension straps safely hold the magazines so you do not need to be concerned about losing the mag during fast movements, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Condor MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Pistol Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches can be found in similar designs to the rifle pouches with standard flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which are available in the standard design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of standard pistol pouches which secure airsoft gun magazines very well with this resilient Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most typically found versions of handgun pouches. A lot of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the very same style.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch including both a rifle and pistol magazine. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over purchasing all six separately (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) create a space for you to discard empty magazines and other things into quickly. Some dump pouches also have drawstring closure tops for extra security while moving with a full pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK stands for individual first aid kit and includes the medical gear airsoft players require when they have to patch up a gash or injury on the field. A first aid kit needs to contain the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make a place for holding a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, compasses, and other field supplies. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else usually. Think spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they don’t have their own unique pouch), and other gear you may need on the airsoft field or tactical situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Many airsoft organizations talk on radios and communications equipment in the field. Using a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and family band radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
