About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The MOLLE Hand Grenade Pouch, MultiCam / OCP, NSN 8465-01-580-0697, USGI Issue is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches attach with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE pouches have recently become popular in the last few years due to tactical developments and inventions.

The only limitation ends up being which pouches to use and where to put them.

Types of Molle MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are essential to carry on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other kinds of airsoft gun rifle magazines. These are also called ‘standard’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are pretty basic in design. They are one of the original designs of pouches developed to carry spare magazines with you in the field. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for included security that is normally fastened with Velcro. The flap might include a plastic side-release buckle depending upon pouch style. In addition to being available from lots of tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most economical ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches resemble the basic mag pouches with a couple of enhancements. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design gets rid of the flap leaving an open top to insert and remove magazines. This allows for silent access and increased speed while accessing or refilling weapon gear. These mag pouches can be available in triple or single magazine holding setups.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the most recent and most innovative type of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are constructed into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine firmly under stretchy bungees. In order to make mag access simpler and mag changes faster than ever before, this style of tactical pouch uses MOLLE attachments so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch parts are usually made of ABS materials.
The Molle brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag style use varying types of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized tension bands (depending upon maker). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and giving it a hard tug 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 quick movements, crawling, climbing over things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Molle MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Handgun Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches come in similar styles to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention styles of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which are available in the basic style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a number of basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft gun magazines very well with this resilient Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most typically found variations of handgun pouches. Many of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the same style. This consists of companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are excellent quality, usable, and are reproduced by airsoft pouch companies.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. Two is usually better than one. This pouch proves this to be correct given that it saves you money from needing to purchase two separate pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all six independently (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines). Never ever purchase pouches one at a time when you can get them as a group.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a mag retrieval pouches) create a space for you to discard empty mags and other gear into rapidly. These tactical pouches are typically carried on tactical belts in a rolled up position and secured by a button or strap. The pouch can be quickly unrolled to increase in size and hold empty clips after reloads, extra airsoft BBs/shells, and other tac gear while in the battlefield. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for extra closure security while moving with a pouch full of empty clips.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK means individual first aid kit and includes the medical gear airsoft players require when they need to patch up a scrape or injury on the field. A first aid pack 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, cutting shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make space for carrying tools, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else usually. Think extra airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they don’t have their own separate pouch), and other equipment you might need on the airsoft field or in a tactical situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Lots of airsoft units talk on radios and communications equipment on the field. Adopting a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications gear while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and family band radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
