This pouch incorporates the durability of nylon gear and the simplicity of kydex tensioned pouches. The problem with a lot of kydex mag singles is that they are too wide to stack more than one on a vest next to each other. Using a two part pouch I could slim down the profile of the kydex and fit it into a nylon pouch. I also added molle on the front of it so that the user could add whatever pouch they want on it or even stack two on top of one another. I have been working on a version that is taller to allow more mounting options. I have changed the molding of them to allow for the magpul p-mags that have become so popular lately. Shown also is the prototype with no molle on the outside.
The kydex insert is velcroed into the nylon pouch body and is unidirectional. The user can change the direction of the insert by breaking the velcro bond, slipping the insert out and then reinserting it. This pouch can be molded for almost any mag but spacing on a molle vest will cause problems with mags that are larger than M4 mags (m14, AK, etc..) because the pouches will not sit right next to one another on the 1.5" molle spacing. Belt mounting is possible either by requesting a purpose built pouch or by using the molle attachment loops as belt loops.
