About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The High Ground Gear 5.56 Drop Down Admin Pouch, Double, Holds 2, Coyote, HG-8171-4 is a tactical pouch. The majority of tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE straps offer a versatile way for users to pick the mounting place and position of the pouch and install them anywhere on equipment where there is a MOLLE accessory panel location.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE stands for Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and defines the pouches, panels, and straps which are utilized in the MOLLE gear system.

Types of High Ground Gear MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are usually called ‘standard’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are quite standard in style. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for added security that is typically secured with Velcro. In addition to being available from lots of tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are long lasting and one of the most cost effective ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are comparable to the basic mag pouches with a few adjustments. As the tactical pouch name indicates, 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 latest and most innovative type of tactical mag pouches. In order to make mag accessibility simpler and magazine reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE attachments so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The High Ground Gear brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag style use differing types of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized stress bands (depending on producer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and providing a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the tension straps safely hold the magazines so you don’t have to be concerned about losing the mag during fast movements, crawling, climbing up things, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
High Ground Gear MOLLE Airsoft Weapon Pistol Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches come in similar styles to the rifle pouches with standard flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The handgun magazine pouches which come in the basic design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of basic handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this resilient Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most commonly found variations of handgun pouches. Many of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the exact same design.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. Two is typically far better than one. This pouch shows this to be accurate given that it saves you money from needing to buy two pouches. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over buying all six separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never ever buy pouches separately when you can get them as a group.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a mag recovery pouches) make a spot for you to place empty magazines and other things into quickly in the field. These tactical pouches are normally held in a rolled up position and secured by a snap or strap. The pouch can be rapidly unrolled to increase in size and hold empty clips after reloads, extra airsoft BBs/shells, and other tac gear while on the battlefield. Some dump pouches even have drawstring tops for added closure security while moving with a full 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 medical gear airsoft players require when they need to patch up a gash or injury on the field. A first aid pack must contain the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze, a number of 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 create a place for carrying a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, compasses, and other field supplies. These pouches are basic use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else generally. Think spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own unique pouch), and other equipment you may need on the airsoft field or in a tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Lots of airsoft units carry radios and communications equipment on 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 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
