About MOLLE Pouches and Gear
The Maxpedition Gear Cocoon Pouch is a tactical pouch. Many tactical pouches connect with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style accessories. MOLLE pouches have 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 design pouches to gear, vests, deployment bags, and other types of field gear. MOLLE straps provide a flexible way for users to select the mounting place and position of the pouch and install them anywhere on gear where there is a MOLLE accessory panel area. The only constraint becomes which pouches to put to use and where to place them.
What is MOLLE?
MOLLE means Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment and identifies the pouches, panels, and straps which are adopted in the MOLLE gear system. Here are the three parts of the installing system: MOLLE straps, panels, and pouches. Mounting tactical pouches is quick and simple. Just thread the straps and snap the buttons to secure them in place. Now that we know what MOLLE is and how it works, let’s have a look at some of the best MOLLE pouches you can attach to your airsoft gear beginning with airsoft weapon magazine pouches.
Colors of MOLLE Pouches and Camouflage Patterns
MOLLE tactical pouches come in many different colors and camouflage patterns.

The Maxpedition brand is fairly highly-rated in the world of airsoft. They produce pretty good quality airsoft equipment and other products. If you have questions about their pouches or customer support inquiries, you can find additional information on the brand’s business website.
Types of Maxpedition MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are usually called ‘basic’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ due to the fact that they are quite basic 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 readily available from lots of tactical equipment companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are long lasting and one of the most economical methods to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouch types resemble the basic mag pouches with a couple of enhancements. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design eliminates the flap leaving an open top to put in and take out magazines. This enables quiet access and increased speed while accessing or reloading weapon gear. These mag pouches can be found in single or triple magazine holding setups.
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. In order to make mag access easier and magazine swaps faster than ever, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE connections so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest.
The Maxpedition brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag style use varying kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cords or rubberized bungee bands (depending upon maker). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and using a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the bungee straps safely hold the magazines so you don’t have to think about losing the mag during fast motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Maxpedition MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Pistol magazine pouches come in similar designs to the rifle pouches with standard flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which can be found in the basic design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes several basic pistol pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this resilient Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most frequently found versions of handgun pouches. A lot of the same manufacturers which make rifle mag pouches make matching pistol magazine pouches in the very same design. This consists of manufacturers like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch designs are excellent quality, functional, and are duplicated by airsoft pouch companies.
Combo Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired style of pouch including both a rifle and pistol magazine. The cost of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over buying all six individually (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a mag recovery pouches) make a space for you to throw empty mags and other things into quickly during battle. These tactical pouches are typically carried on your belt 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 magazines after reloads, additional airsoft BBs/shells, and other equipment while in the field. Some dump pouches also have drawstring tops for extra security while moving with a pouch full of empty mags.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft gear loadout. IFAK represents individual first aid kit and includes the medical gear airsoft players need when they need to patch up a cut or wound on the field. A first aid pack needs to include the following items: medical tape or cloth tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, a number of sterile gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches make a place for holding multitools, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are basic 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 don’t have their own special pouch), and other equipment you may require on the airsoft field or tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Attachments
Lots of airsoft units carry radios and communications devices on the field. Operating a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications equipment while moving. These little radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radios like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
