About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The Pentagon Protean Pouch Coyote is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style accessories. MOLLE pouches have just recently ended up being popular in the last few years due to tactical developments and inventions. They are the top choice for securing military style pouches to range gear, vests, range bags, and other kinds of military equipment. MOLLE straps provide a flexible way for users to select the mounting place and position of the pouch and install them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel area. The only limitation becomes which pouches to put to use and where to place them.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and identifies the pouches, panels, and straps which are utilized in the MOLLE gear system. Now that we understand what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s look at some of the most effective MOLLE pouches you can include in your airsoft equipment starting with airsoft weapon magazine pouches.
Colors of MOLLE Pouches and Camouflage Patterns
MOLLE tactical pouches can be found in all colors and camouflage patterns. Typical pouch colors consist of: 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. Check out the example swatches below for what they appear like:

Kinds Of Pentagon MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are necessary to have on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other kinds of airsoft weapon rifle magazines. These are also called ‘standard’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ since they are pretty standard in design. They are among the initial styles of pouches designed to carry extra magazines with you in the field. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for added security that is usually attached with Velcro. The flap could include a plastic side-release buckle depending on pouch style. In addition to being offered from lots of tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most affordable ways to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the basic mag pouches with a few alterations. As the tactical pouch name implies, 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 newest and most advanced type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag access a lot easier and mag swaps faster than ever, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE attachments so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Pentagon brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use differing types of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized stress bands (depending on 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 don’t need to worry about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Pentagon MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches come in related styles to the rifle pouches with standard flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which can be found in the standard design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes several standard handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this long lasting Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most typically seen versions of pistol pouches. Many of the same companies that make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the same design. This includes manufacturers like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch designs are excellent quality, usable, and are replicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch featuring both a rifle and handgun magazine. A pair of magazines are usually better than one. This pouch shows this to be accurate because it saves you money from having to purchase two pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all six separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never purchase pouches one at a time which you can get them as a group.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) make a space for you to discard empty mags and other things into during fights. Some dump pouches also have drawstring closure tops for extra security while moving with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK is an acronym meaning individual first aid kit and contains the equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a cut or wound on the field. An emergency treatment kit must contain the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze, a number of 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 items. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else normally. Think of things like extra airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own separate pouch), and other gear you may require on the airsoft field or in a tactical situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Many airsoft units put to use radios and communications equipment in the field. Using a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These little radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radio handsets like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
