About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The Uncle Mike’s Horizontal Shoulder Holster – 010-3 to 4-inch BBL Medium Autos is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches attach with MOLLE webbing straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE straps offer a versatile way for users to choose the installation location and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE accessory panel location.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and defines the pouches, panels, and straps which are applied in the MOLLE gear system. Now that we understand what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s look at some of the top MOLLE pouches you can put on your airsoft gear starting with airsoft weapon magazine pouches.
Colors of MOLLE Pouches and Camouflage Patterns
MOLLE tactical pouches are available in all colors and camo patterns. Common pouch colors consist of: black, tan, OD green (olive drab), foliage green (sage), ranger green, and grey. Common pouch camouflage patterns include: forest, desert, A-TACs, Multicam, ACU (Army Combat Uniform), digital, and others. Take a look at the example swatches below for what they look like:

Types of Uncle Mike’s MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ since they are pretty basic in design. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for extra security that is normally attached with Velcro. In addition to being readily available from many tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most cost effective methods to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the basic mag pouches with a couple of modifications. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design removes the flap leaving an open top to put in and take out magazines. This enables quiet 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 newest and most innovative type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag accessibility simpler and clip swaps faster than ever, this style of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE connections so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Uncle Mike’s brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag design use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cords or rubberized stress bands (depending on manufacturer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and giving it a hard pull 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 motions, crawling, climbing up things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Uncle Mike’s MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Handgun Magazine Pouches
Pistol 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 handgun magazine pouches which come in the basic design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this durable Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most typically used 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.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. Two is normally far better than one. This pouch shows this to be correct given that it saves you money from having to buy two separate pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all 6 separately (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines). Never ever purchase pouches one at a time when you can get them together.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine retrieval pouches) create an area for you to dump empty magazines and other gear into quickly. Some dump pouches also have drawstring closure tops for extra security while moving on the run with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft gear loadout. IFAK represents individual first aid kit and includes the equipment airsoft players require when they have to patch up a gash or injury on the field. A first aid pack must include the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, cutting shears, tweezers, and Other products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make space for carrying multitools, folded maps, pens, compasses, and other field gear. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else generally. Think of things like spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own unique pouch), and other equipment you might need on the airsoft field or tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Many airsoft teams manage communications and radios equipment in 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 portable radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
