About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The Aker Leather 506 Handcuff Case, Open Top is a tactical pouch. Many tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop design accessories. MOLLE pouches have just recently become popular in the last few years due to tactical developments and inventions. They are the top choice for securing military design pouches to gear, tactical vests, range bags, and other types of field gear. MOLLE straps provide a unique method for users to choose the mounting area and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location. The only limitation ends up being which pouches to utilize and where to put them.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and describes the pouches, panels, and straps which are adopted in the MOLLE gear system.

Types of Aker Leather MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are essential to have on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other types of airsoft weapon rifle magazines. These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ since they are pretty basic in design. They are one of the original 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 normally attached with Velcro. The flap might include a plastic side-release buckle depending on pouch design. In addition to being offered from many tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and among the most budget-friendly ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the standard mag pouches with a few modifications. As the tactical pouch name indicates, this pouch style eliminates the flap leaving an open top to place and take out magazines.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the most recent and most advanced kind of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are built into the magazine pocket so that it holds the magazine securely under stretchy bungees. In order to make mag accessibility simpler and reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch makes use of MOLLE accessories so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch parts are generally made from ABS materials.
The Aker Leather brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use differing types of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cords or rubberized bungee bands (depending upon maker). 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 worry about losing the mag during fast motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Aker Leather MOLLE Airsoft Gun Pistol Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches are available in related styles to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention styles of tactical pouches. The handgun magazine pouches which can be found in the basic style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a few basic handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this durable Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention pistol pouches are the most typically chosen variations of handgun pouches. Many of the same companies that make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the exact same design. This consists of companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are exceptional quality, functional, and are reproduced 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. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over purchasing all six separately (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) create an area for you to discard empty mags and other things into during fights. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for additional security while moving on the run with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK is an acronym for individual first aid kit and includes the medical gear airsoft players need when they have to patch up a scrape or injury on the field. A first aid kit needs to include the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze bandages, a number of sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make room for holding a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else usually. Think spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own separate pouch), and other gear you may need on the airsoft field or tactical circumstance.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Many airsoft units employ radios and communications equipment on the field. Applying a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment while moving.
