About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The 5ive Star Gear Molle Compatible 1 Quart Canteen/Utility Pouch, One Size, Multicam is a tactical pouch. Many tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE pouches have just recently become popular in the last few years due to tactical innovations and gear efficiency focused products. They are the top option for securing military design pouches to gear, vests, deployment bags, and other kinds of equipment. MOLLE straps offer a unique method for users to choose the mounting area and position of the pouch and install them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location. The only restriction ends up being which pouches to adopt and where to place them.

Types of 5ive Star Gear MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are necessary to have on your gear for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other types of airsoft gun rifle magazines. These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ because they are pretty basic in style. They are among the initial designs of pouches created 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 upon pouch design. In addition to being available from many tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most inexpensive ways to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the standard mag pouches with a couple of modifications. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch style eliminates the flap leaving an open top to insert and extract magazines. This allows for silent access and increased speed while accessing or swapping gun gear. These mag pouches can be found 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. The retention systems are built into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine firmly under stretchy bungees. In order to make mag accessibility easier and reloads faster than ever before, this style of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE accessories so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch parts are normally made of ABS construction.
The 5ive Star Gear brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag design use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cords or rubberized tension bands (depending upon manufacturer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the bungee straps firmly hold the magazines so you don’t need to be concerned about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing up things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
5ive Star Gear MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Handgun Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches come in related designs to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which are available in the standard style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes several standard handgun pouches which secure airsoft gun magazines very well with this long lasting Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most frequently used versions of handgun pouches. A lot of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the exact same design.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch featuring both a rifle and pistol magazine. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all six separately (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine retrieval pouches) make a spot for you to dump empty mags and other gear into during fights. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for extra security while moving with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft gear 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. An emergency treatment kit should contain the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze, a number of sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make space for holding a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else normally. You can carry things like spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own separate pouch), and other equipment you may require on the airsoft field or tactical circumstance.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Lots of airsoft teams manage radios and communications devices in the field. Using a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These little radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and portable radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
