About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The BLACKHAWK Split Front Chest Rig, Olive Drab is a tactical pouch. A lot of tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style 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 style pouches to range gear, vests, range bags, and other types of military equipment. MOLLE straps offer a unique way for users to choose the mounting area and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on gear where there is a MOLLE accessory panel area. The only constraint ends up being which pouches to utilize and where to position them.

Types of BLACKHAWK MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are usually called ‘standard’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are quite standard in design. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for extra security that is normally fastened with Velcro. In addition to being readily available from lots of tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are resilient and one of the most economical methods to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the basic mag pouches with a couple of modifications. As the tactical pouch name implies, this pouch design eliminates the flap leaving an open top to place and remove 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 developed into the magazine pocket so that it holds the magazine securely under stretchy bungees. In order to make mag accessibility easier and magazine changes faster than ever before, this style of tactical pouch makes use of MOLLE accessories so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch components are normally made from ABS components.
The BLACKHAWK brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use varying types of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cables or rubberized bungee bands (depending on manufacturer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and providing a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the bungee straps firmly 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.
BLACKHAWK MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches are available in similar styles to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention styles of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which are available in the standard style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a number of standard handgun 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 frequently chosen versions of pistol pouches. A lot of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun 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 excellent quality, usable, and are replicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over buying all six independently (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine retrieval pouches) make a space for you to dump empty mags and other gear into during fights. Some dump pouches also have drawstring closure tops for additional security while moving with a full 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 contains the medical gear airsoft players require when they need to patch up a gash or wound on the field. An emergency treatment pack must contain the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other items.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make space for carrying tools, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else normally. Think of things like 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 in a tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Many airsoft organizations manage radios and communications devices on the field. Applying a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications equipment while moving.
