About MOLLE Pouches and Equipment
The Maxpedition Key Retention System Keyper – Black 1703B is a tactical pouch. Most tactical pouches attach with MOLLE straps and hook-and-loop style attachments. MOLLE pouches have just recently ended up being popular in the last several years due to tactical developments and inventions. They are the top option for securing military design pouches to range gear, tactical vests, range bags, and other kinds of field gear. MOLLE straps provide a unique way for users to pick the mounting location and position of the pouch and mount them anywhere on gear where there is a MOLLE accessory panel area. The only constraint becomes which pouches to use and where to position them.

Types of Maxpedition MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
These are usually called ‘standard’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ because they are quite basic in design. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for extra security that is normally fastened 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 budget-friendly methods to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the basic mag pouches with a couple of alterations. As the tactical pouch name indicates, this pouch style eliminates the flap leaving an open top to insert 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. The retention systems are developed into the magazine pocket so that it holds the magazine firmly under tension. In order to make mag access simpler and reloads faster than ever before, this style of tactical pouch makes use of MOLLE accessories so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch elements are typically made of ABS construction.
The Maxpedition brand also makes retention magazine pouches like the FastMag design use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and provide security including bungee cords or rubberized tension bands (depending on manufacturer). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and giving it a hard tug up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the tension straps securely hold the magazines so you don’t have to be concerned about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
Maxpedition MOLLE Airsoft Gun Pistol Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches come in related designs to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention styles of tactical pouches. The handgun magazine pouches which come in the basic design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a couple of standard handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines effectively with this resilient Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most frequently seen versions of handgun pouches. A number of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the very same style. This includes companies like Blue Force Gear, and High Speed Gear. Both of their rifle mag pouch styles are exceptional quality, usable, 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 handgun magazine. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) cost savings over purchasing all 6 independently (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines).
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine retrieval pouches) make an area for you to dump empty magazines and other things into quickly. Some dump pouches also have drawstring 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 stands for individual first aid kit and consists of the equipment airsoft players need when they need to patch up a scrape or wound on the field. A first aid kit must include the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, a number of sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other medical products.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create a place for holding tools, folded maps, pens, and other field gear. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which don’t go anywhere else usually. Think spare airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they do not have their own special pouch), and other gear you may require on the airsoft field or tactical circumstance.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Many airsoft units employ radios and communications devices on the field. Running a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications gear while moving.
