About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The Safariland Model 308 Hand-Held Flashlight Holder 308-5-13PBL is a tactical pouch. Many tactical pouches attach with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop design attachments. MOLLE pouches have recently become popular in the last several years due to tactical innovations and inventions. They are the top choice for securing military design pouches to gear, airsoft vests, range bags, and other kinds of equipment. MOLLE straps offer a flexible method for users to pick the mounting place and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location. The only constraint becomes which pouches to utilize and where to position them.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and defines the pouches, panels, and straps which are adopted in the MOLLE equipment system. Now that we know what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s look at some of the top MOLLE pouches you can put on your airsoft equipment beginning with airsoft gun magazine pouches.
Colors of MOLLE Pouches and Camouflage Patterns
MOLLE tactical pouches can be found in all colors and camo patterns. Typical pouch colors consist of: black, tan, OD green (olive drab), foliage green (sage), ranger green, and grey. Common pouch camouflage patterns consist of: forest, 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:

Kinds Of Safariland MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are essential to have on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other kinds of airsoft gun rifle magazines. These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are pretty basic in style. 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 included security that is usually fastened with Velcro. The flap might include a plastic side-release buckle depending upon pouch design. In addition to being available from lots of tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and among the most affordable methods to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouch types resemble the basic mag pouches with a few modifications. As the tactical pouch name indicates, this pouch style removes the flap leaving an open top to insert and remove magazines. This allows for silent access and increased speed while reloading weapons or accessing gear. These mag pouches can come in single or triple magazine holding setups.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the most recent and most sophisticated type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag accessibility easier and reloads faster than before, this design of tactical pouch makes use of MOLLE connections so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Safariland brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag design use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cables or rubberized tension bands (depending on manufacturer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and providing 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 worry about losing the mag during quick movements, crawling, climbing over things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Safariland MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches come in similar 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 are available in the standard design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a number of basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft gun magazines effectively with this durable Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most typically chosen variations of handgun pouches. A lot of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the exact same style. This includes manufacturers like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch designs are exceptional 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 pistol magazine. A pair of magazines are typically better than one. This pouch shows this to be true because it saves you cash from needing to buy a pair of pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over buying all 6 separately (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines). Never ever purchase pouches individually when you can get them as a group.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a mag collection pouches) make a spot for you to throw empty magazines and other gear into rapidly. These tactical pouches are generally carried on tactical belts in a rolled up position and secured by a snap or strap. The pouch can be rapidly unrolled to increase in size and hold empty clips after you reload your airsoft rifle, additional airsoft BBs/shells, and other tac gear while in the battlefield. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for added closure security while moving with a pouch that is full.
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 equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a scrape or wound on the field. An emergency treatment pack must contain the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze, several sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, cutting shears, tweezers, and Other items.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create space for carrying tools, folded maps, pens, and other field items. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else usually. You can carry things like spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own separate pouch), and other gear you might need on the airsoft field or in a tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Many airsoft units put to use radios and communications devices in the field. Adopting a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications gear while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
