Types of GENUINE MILITARY SURPLUS MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are also called ‘standard’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are pretty standard in style. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for extra security that is typically attached 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 inexpensive methods to hold magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the basic mag pouches with a few modifications. As the tactical pouch name indicates, this pouch design eliminates the flap leaving an open top to insert and take out 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 developed into the magazine pocket so that it holds the magazine securely under stretchy bungees. In order to make mag accessibility easier and reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE attachments so it can be installed at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch components are generally made of ABS construction.
The GENUINE MILITARY SURPLUS brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag style use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cords or rubberized stress bands (depending on producer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard pull up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the tension straps firmly hold the magazines so you do not have to think about losing the mag during fast motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
GENUINE MILITARY SURPLUS MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Pistol Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches can be found 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 are available in the standard design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines effectively with this durable Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most commonly found versions of pistol pouches. Many of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the same style.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. A pair of mags are typically better than one. This pouch shows this to be accurate since it saves you cash from needing to purchase two separate pouches. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over purchasing all 6 separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never buy pouches individually when you can get them as a group.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) create a spot for you to dump empty mags and other gear into rapidly. These tactical pouches are generally carried in a rolled up position and secured by a snap or strap. The pouch can be quickly unrolled to expand in size and hold empty magazines after reloads, additional airsoft BBs/shells, and other gear while in the airsoft field. Some dump pouches also have drawstring tops for extra closure security while moving with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft gear loadout. IFAK represents individual first aid kit and consists of the medical gear airsoft players need when they have to patch up a cut or wound on the field. An emergency treatment kit must include the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze, a number of sterile gauze pads, antiseptic 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 gear. 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 special pouch), and other gear you may need on the airsoft field or in a tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Lots of airsoft units put to use radios and communications devices on the field. Using a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment while moving.
