Types of 5.11 MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ because they are quite standard in style. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for extra security that is usually attached with Velcro. In addition to being readily available from many tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are resilient and one of the most budget-friendly ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouch types resemble the standard mag pouches with a few modifications. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design gets rid of the flap leaving an open top to insert and extract magazines. This allows quiet access and increased speed while accessing or refilling weapon gear. These mag pouches can come in triple or single 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 access a lot easier and magazine reloads faster than ever, this design of tactical pouch uses MOLLE connections so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The 5.11 brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag style use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cables or rubberized tension bands (depending on maker). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and providing a hard pull up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the bungee straps securely hold the magazines so you do not need to think about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing up things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
5.11 MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches come in similar designs 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 style 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 commonly found versions of handgun pouches. Many of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the exact same style.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch featuring both a rifle and handgun magazine. Two is typically far better than one. This pouch proves this to be correct since it saves you money from having to purchase a pair of pouches. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over buying all six individually (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines). Never ever purchase pouches separately when you can get them grouped.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) create a spot for you to dump empty mags and other gear into quickly. Some dump pouches also have drawstring closure tops for extra security while on the run with a full pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK stands for individual first aid kit and contains the equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a cut or wound 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 gauze bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create room for carrying tools, folded maps, pens, and other field items. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else normally. Think of things like extra airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own unique pouch), and other gear you might require on the airsoft field or in a tactical situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Lots of airsoft teams use radios and communications equipment on the field. Operating a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications gear while moving.
