About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The Armor Express Base Pouch Utility Small – 3 X 5 – Zip – Black – TPVUG3X5BLK is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop design attachments. MOLLE pouches have recently become popular in the last several years due to tactical developments and gear efficiency focused products. They are the top choice for securing military style pouches to gear, tactical vests, deployment bags, and other kinds of military equipment. MOLLE straps provide a flexible way for users to pick the mounting location and position of the pouch and install them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location. The only restriction becomes which pouches to utilize and where to place them.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and defines the pouches, panels, and straps which are put to use in the MOLLE gear system.

Types of Armor Express MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ since they are quite basic in style. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for added security that is generally secured with Velcro. In addition to being available from many tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are resilient and one of the most budget friendly methods to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches resemble the basic mag pouches with a couple of adjustments. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design removes the flap leaving an open top to put in and extract magazines. This enables quiet access and increased speed while accessing or refilling gun pouches. These mag pouches can be available in single or triple magazine holding setups.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the newest and most advanced kind of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are developed into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine firmly under pressure. In order to make mag accessibility simpler and reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE accessories so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch components are normally made of ABS construction.
The Armor Express brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag style use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized bungee bands (depending on 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 bungee straps safely hold the magazines so you do not have to worry about losing the mag during fast motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Armor Express MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches come in similar styles to the rifle pouches with standard flip top, open top, and open top with retention styles of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which can be found in the standard design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes several standard pistol pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this resilient Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention pistol pouches are the most commonly chosen variations of handgun pouches. A number of the same manufacturers that make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the very same design. This includes companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are excellent quality, usable, and are reproduced by airsoft pouch companies.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design of pouch featuring both a rifle and handgun magazine. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over purchasing all six independently (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 things into rapidly. Some dump pouches even have drawstring closure 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 means individual first aid kit and includes the equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a scrape or wound on the field. An emergency treatment pack must contain the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make a place for carrying a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else usually. Think of things like spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they don’t have their own specific pouch), and other equipment you might require on the airsoft field or in a tactical situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Many airsoft organizations carry radios and communications equipment in the field. Applying a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These little radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
