About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The Eagle Industries USMC FSBE Hydration System Carrier Coyote Brown is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches connect with MOLLE snap straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE straps offer a versatile method for users to select the installation area and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on gear where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE is an acronym meaning Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and describes the pouches, panels, and straps which are adopted in the MOLLE gear system. Here are the 3 parts of the mounting system: MOLLE panels, pouches, and straps. Mounting tactical pouches is fast and easy. Just thread the straps and snap the buttons to secure them in place. Now that we know what MOLLE is and how the system works, let’s take a look at some of the most functional MOLLE pouches you can put on your airsoft equipment beginning with airsoft weapon mag pouches.
Colors of MOLLE Pouches and Camouflage Patterns
MOLLE tactical pouches are available in all colors and camouflage patterns. Typical pouch colors include: black, tan, OD green (olive drab), foliage green (sage), ranger green, and grey. Typical pouch camouflage patterns include: woodland, desert, A-TACs, Multicam, ACU (Army Combat Uniform), digital, and others. Take a look at the example swatches in the product description for what they look like:

Types of Eagle Industries MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are also called ‘standard’ 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 usually fastened with Velcro. In addition to being available from many tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are resilient and one of the most inexpensive ways to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the standard mag pouches with a couple of alterations. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch style gets rid of the flap leaving an open top to insert and remove magazines.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the latest and most advanced type of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are developed into the magazine pocket so that it holds the magazine securely under pressure. In order to make mag accessibility easier and reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE accessories so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch elements are usually made from ABS components.
The Eagle Industries brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag style use differing types of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cords or rubberized stress bands (depending on 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 stress straps securely hold the magazines so you don’t need to worry about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing over things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Eagle Industries MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Handgun 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 styles of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which come in the standard design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of standard handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines effectively with this resilient Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention pistol pouches are the most typically seen versions of pistol pouches. A lot of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the very same design. This includes companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are excellent quality, functional, and are duplicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design of pouch featuring both a rifle and pistol magazine. A pair of mags are generally better than one. This pouch proves this to be true given that it saves you money from having to buy two separate pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over buying all 6 separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never ever buy pouches separately which you can get them together.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) make a space for you to dump empty magazines and other things into rapidly. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for extra security while on the run with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft gear loadout. IFAK is an acronym meaning individual first aid kit and includes the medical gear airsoft players need when they have to patch up a scrape or injury on the field. A first aid pack must include the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, cutting shears, tweezers, and Other items.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make space for holding multitools, folded maps, pens, compasses, and other field supplies. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else normally. Think spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own special pouch), and other gear you might need on the airsoft field or in a tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Many airsoft teams talk on communications and radios equipment in the field. Running a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radio handsets like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
