A lot of tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE pouches have just recently ended up being popular in the last few years due to tactical developments and gear efficiency focused products. They are the top choice for securing military style pouches to military gear, tactical vests, range bags, and other types of equipment. MOLLE straps provide a unique way for users to choose the mounting location and position of the pouch and install them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE attachment panel location. The only limitation ends up being which pouches to manage and where to put them.

Kinds Of Elite Survival Systems 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 simply ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are pretty standard in design. They are among 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 added security that is normally secured with Velcro. The flap could feature a plastic side-release buckle depending on pouch design. In addition to being available from many tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are durable and among the most cost effective ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the standard mag pouches with a few adjustments. As the tactical pouch name implies, this pouch design gets rid of the flap leaving an open top to insert and remove magazines.
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. The retention systems are developed into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine securely under tension. In order to make mag accessibility easier and reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch makes use of MOLLE attachments so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch elements are typically made from ABS construction.
The Elite Survival Systems brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cables or rubberized stress bands (depending upon producer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and providing a hard tug up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the tension straps firmly hold the magazines so you don’t have to be concerned about losing the mag during quick movements, crawling, climbing over things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Elite Survival Systems MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Pistol 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 handgun magazine pouches which are available in the standard style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this durable Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention pistol pouches are the most typically found versions of pistol pouches. Most of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun 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 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 featuring both a rifle and pistol magazine. Two is generally much better than one. This pouch shows this to be accurate because it saves you cash from having to buy two separate pouches. For example, the expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all 6 independently (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never ever purchase pouches one at a time which you can get them together.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine retrieval pouches) create a space for you to ditch empty magazines and other things into quickly. 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 gear loadout. IFAK represents individual first aid kit and contains the medical gear airsoft players require when they need to patch up a cut or wound on the field. A first aid pack needs to contain the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze, several sterile gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, cutting shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make a place for holding tools, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else usually. 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 might require on the airsoft field or tactical circumstance.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Many airsoft units use communications and radios equipment in the field. Applying a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications gear while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radio handsets like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 models and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
