Molle Garand Pouches

For fun, I used my 1943 M1 Garand at a local match and knowing I was lacking for high speed gear, I decided to make some updated kit for it. Originally I tried using a flapped velcro pouch like this one:





But for even more speed in removing the clips I made molded kydex cups and mounted them on a battle belt. I won in my division and beat out some M4 gunners with my old school beauty.





Pouches could be made using either method depending on how much retention is necessary. It was a fun design project and made running that gun just a little faster.
