About MOLLE Pouches and Gear

About the KRYDEX Brand
The KRYDEX brand is quite widely known in the world of airsoft. They produce decent quality airsoft equipment and other gear. You can find answers on the brand’s site if you have questions about their airsoft pouches or customer service questions.
Types of KRYDEX MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are important to have on your gear for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other kinds of airsoft gun rifle magazines. These are also called ‘basic’ pouches or simply ‘mag pouches’ since they are pretty basic in design. They are among the initial styles of pouches designed to carry extra 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 might feature a plastic side-release buckle depending upon pouch style. In addition to being offered from lots of tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, standard rifle magazine pouches are durable and among the most inexpensive methods to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the standard mag pouches with a couple of differences. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design removes the flap leaving an open top to place and take out magazines.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the newest and most innovative type of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are constructed into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine firmly under pressure. In order to make mag accessibility simpler and mag swaps faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch makes use of MOLLE accessories so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch parts are generally made of ABS components.
The KRYDEX brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag design use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cables or rubberized stress bands (depending upon producer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the stress straps safely hold the magazines so you don’t have to be concerned about losing the mag during fast movements, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
KRYDEX MOLLE Airsoft Gun Pistol Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches come in related 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 come in the standard style have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a few standard handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this durable Velcro flip top style.
The open top and open top with retention pistol pouches are the most typically seen versions of handgun pouches. A number of the same manufacturers that make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the same design. This consists of companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch designs are excellent quality, usable, and are reproduced by airsoft pouch companies.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch featuring both a rifle and handgun magazine. A pair of magazines are normally much better than one. This pouch proves this to be correct given that it saves you cash from needing to purchase two separate pouches. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equals about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over buying all 6 separately (3x rifle and 3x pistol magazines). Never purchase pouches separately when you can get them grouped.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) create a spot for you to throw empty magazines and other gear into quickly. Some dump pouches also have drawstring closure tops for extra security while moving on the run with a full pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK represents individual first aid kit and contains the equipment airsoft players require when they need to patch up a gash or wound on the field. An emergency treatment kit should contain the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled gauze bandages, several sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create room for holding multitools, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else generally. 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 situation.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Lots of airsoft groups use radios and communications equipment on the field. Operating a radio pouch with MOLLE accessories helps you secure your communications gear while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
