About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The Explorer 25 Shotgun Shell Carrier Pouch, Black, 10 x 3 x 5-Inch is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches attach with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop design attachments.

About the Explorer Brand
The Explorer brand is fairly prominently known in the world of airsoft. They create pretty good quality airsoft pouches and other gear. You can find answers on the brand’s site if you have concerns about their airsoft pouches or customer service questions.
Types of Explorer MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are important to carry on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other types of airsoft gun rifle magazines. These are also called ‘standard’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are pretty standard in style. They are among the original styles of pouches created to carry extra magazines with you in the field. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for included security that is generally fastened with Velcro. The flap might include a plastic side-release buckle depending on pouch style. In addition to being offered from lots of tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and one of the most budget-friendly methods to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the basic mag pouches with a couple of alterations. As the tactical pouch name implies, this pouch style 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 newest and most sophisticated kind of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are constructed into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine tightly under tension. In order to make mag access simpler and mag swaps faster than ever before, this style 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 generally made of ABS components.
The Explorer brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cords or rubberized bungee bands (depending upon producer). 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 stress straps firmly hold the magazines so you do not need to be concerned about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Explorer MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Pistol Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches are available in similar designs to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which can be found in the basic style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a number of basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft gun magazines effectively with this resilient Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention pistol pouches are the most commonly chosen variations of pistol pouches. Most of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the same style. This includes manufacturers like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are exceptional quality, functional, and are replicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch featuring both a rifle and pistol magazine. Two is usually far better than one. This pouch shows this to be accurate considering that it saves you cash from having to purchase two separate pouches. As an example, the cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all six separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never ever purchase pouches separately when you can get them grouped.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine retrieval pouches) create an area for you to discard empty mags and other things into during gunfights. Some dump pouches even have drawstring closure tops for additional security while moving 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 contains the equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a cut or injury on the field. A first aid pack needs to contain the following items: medical tape or fabric 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, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create room for holding a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, and other field gear. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else normally. Think of things like extra airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own special pouch), and other equipment you might require on the airsoft field or tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Lots of airsoft groups put to use radios and communications devices on the field. Running a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and portable radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
