About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The Aker Leather Products Flashlight Holder 654 Flashlight Holder, Basketweave, Streamlight Strion LED and Ds Led, Black is a tactical pouch. The majority of tactical pouches attach with MOLLE snap straps and hook-and-loop design attachments. MOLLE straps provide a versatile method for users to pick the mounting place and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel area.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and refers to the pouches, panels, and straps which are put to use in the MOLLE gear system. Now that we understand what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s look at some of the best MOLLE pouches you can include in your airsoft gear beginning with airsoft weapon magazine pouches.
Colors of MOLLE Pouches and Camouflage Patterns
MOLLE tactical pouches can be found in all colors and camo patterns. Typical pouch colors include: black, tan, OD green (olive drab), foliage green (sage), ranger green, and grey. Common pouch camouflage patterns include: woodland, desert, A-TACs, Multicam, ACU (Army Combat Uniform), digital, and others. Take a look at the example swatches below for what they appear like:

Kinds Of Aker Leather MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are necessary to have on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other kinds of airsoft gun rifle magazines. These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ since they are pretty standard in style. They are one of the initial styles of pouches developed to carry spare magazines with you in the field. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for included security that is generally secured with Velcro. The flap could include a plastic side-release buckle depending on pouch design. In addition to being offered from lots of tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and among the most affordable ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouch types are similar to the standard mag pouches with a few alterations. As the tactical pouch name implies, this pouch style removes the flap leaving an open top to place and take out magazines. This enables quiet access and increased speed while accessing or refilling gun pouches. 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 latest and most sophisticated type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag access easier and clip reloads faster than before, this design of tactical pouch uses MOLLE attachments so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Aker Leather brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag design use differing types of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized stress bands (depending upon maker). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard tug 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 up things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Aker Leather 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 pistol magazine pouches which are available in the basic style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a few standard pistol 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 commonly found variations of pistol pouches. A number of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the same design. This includes manufacturers like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are exceptional quality, functional, and are duplicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design 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 buying all 6 separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a clip collection pouches) create a space for you to discard empty magazines and other gear into rapidly. These tactical pouches are typically carried on tactical belts in a rolled up position and secured by a snap or strap. The pouch can be quickly unrolled to increase in size and hold empty clips after you reload your airsoft rifle, extra airsoft BBs/shells, and other equipment while in the field. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for added closure security while moving with a pouch full of empty rifle mags.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK is an acronym meaning individual first aid kit and contains the medical gear airsoft players need when they need to patch up a gash or wound on the field. An emergency treatment pack needs to contain the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze 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 create room for carrying multitools, folded maps, pens, compasses, and other field items. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else generally. Think spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own separate pouch), and other gear you might need on the airsoft field or tactical situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Many airsoft units carry communications and radios devices on the field. Operating a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and family band radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
