About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The Vel Tye IFAK Pouch is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches attach with MOLLE webbing straps and hook-and-loop design accessories. MOLLE straps supply a flexible method for users to choose the mounting area and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on gear where there is a MOLLE attachment panel area.

Now that we know what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s look at some of the leading MOLLE pouches you can add to your airsoft equipment beginning with airsoft weapon magazine pouches.

Types of Vel Tye MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are usually 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 added security that is typically secured with Velcro. In addition to being offered from many tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most cost effective ways to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the basic mag pouches with a couple of alterations. As the tactical pouch name implies, this pouch design removes the flap leaving an open top to place and remove magazines.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the newest and most sophisticated type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag access a lot easier and mag reloads faster than before, this design of tactical pouch uses MOLLE connections so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Vel Tye brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cords or rubberized bungee bands (depending on manufacturer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard tug up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the bungee straps safely hold the magazines so you do not need to be concerned about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Vel Tye MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Handgun Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches are available 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 come in the basic design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes several standard pistol pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this durable Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most commonly chosen variations of pistol pouches. Many of the same manufacturers that make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the very same style. This includes companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch designs are exceptional quality, usable, and are replicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. A pair of mags are typically far better than one. This pouch shows this to be true because it saves you cash from having to purchase two separate pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over buying all six independently (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines). Never purchase pouches separately when you can get them together.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine collection pouches) make a space for you to dump empty mags and other gear into quickly. These tactical pouches are normally held 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 magazines after reloads, extra airsoft BBs/shells, and other tactical gear while on the airsoft field. 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 gear loadout. IFAK is an acronym meaning individual first aid kit and includes the equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a cut or injury on the field. A first aid kit must contain the following items: medical tape or cloth 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, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other items.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create a place for carrying multitools, folded maps, pens, compasses, and other field gear. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else generally. Think of things like spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they don’t have their own specific pouch), and other gear you may need on the airsoft field or tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Lots of airsoft organizations manage communications and radios devices in the field. Running a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment 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.
