Mag pouches and magazine carriers — MOLLE pouches for a belt or rig, and magnetic pocket carriers for concealed carry.

There are two ways to carry a spare magazine, and they solve different problems.

MOLLE mag pouches mount to webbing on a battle belt, duty rig, chest rig or plate carrier. They are visible by design and built for speed — friction retention, no flap to unfasten, the reload is a straight pull. This is the right answer for range work, training and duty loadouts.

Magnetic pocket carriers hold the magazine by magnet inside your pocket and read as a pocket clip from the outside. Nothing mounts to your belt and nothing prints. This is the right answer for concealed everyday carry, where a pouch on the belt defeats the point.

Choose by capacity

Single mag pouch. One spare on the belt — the least real estate, the least weight, and for most people the only spare they will actually carry all day. The pistol mag pouch takes one double-stack pistol magazine on standard MOLLE webbing.

Double and triple mag pouch. When you want a full reload set on the belt without indexing three separate pouches, a multi-mag pouch puts them side by side on one mount. The triple mag pouch carries three magazines on a single MOLLE mount — friction retention throughout, no flaps, so every position draws the same way. One mount, one hand position, and no gaps between pouches to guess at.

Choose by magazine type

Pistol magazines. Sized for double-stack pistol magazines in the common 9mm and .40 patterns. Friction retention, no flap — the reload is a straight pull with nothing to unfasten first.

Rifle and AR magazines. The AR mag pouch takes standard AR-pattern rifle magazines, with the same friction retention and open-top design. If you run both a pistol and a rifle off one belt, the two pouches mount to the same webbing and can sit side by side.

What each one mounts to

MOLLE pouches need webbing to attach to — a 1.75″ battle belt, a 2.25″ duty belt, a chest rig or a plate carrier. They do not mount to a plain trouser belt. The magnetic pocket carrier needs nothing at all: it clips to the hem of your pocket and works with the trouser belt you already wear.

The rest of the rig

A mag pouch rarely goes on a belt by itself. A dump pouch gives you somewhere to put spent magazines instead of dropping them, and rolls flat when it is not in use. A MOLLE extender adds usable webbing when a pouch will not sit where you want it because the belt is already full. A holster mount takes the holster off the belt onto a rigid aluminium platform so it keeps one position instead of shifting. And muffin top pads sit between a loaded belt and your body, spreading pressure where a duty or battle belt digs in over a long day.

About the magnetic pocket carrier

The magnetic pocket magazine carrier is the one we build ourselves — a reinforced carbon fiber body with an N52 neodymium magnet that grips the steel magazine body directly. Because retention is magnetic rather than a moulded shell, it is not cut for one pistol: it works with steel-bodied 9mm and .40 magazines, single- and double-stack. It ships with two clips — a spring-steel deep-conceal clip installed and a titanium clip included free — and it is made in the USA and covered by our lifetime warranty.

Which magazine carrier should I use?
Carrying openly on a belt or rig — MOLLE pouch.
Carrying concealed in a pocket — magnetic pocket carrier.
Dropping mags in training — add a dump pouch to the same belt.
Carrying a full reload set on a belt — triple mag pouch.
Running a rifle — AR mag pouch, mounted to the same webbing.
Competition — a dedicated competition rig on a 1.5″ competition belt.

Mag pouch FAQ

What magazines fit a pistol mag pouch?
Double-stack pistol magazines in the common 9mm and .40 patterns — that is what the pistol mag pouch takes. The AR mag pouch takes standard AR-pattern rifle magazines, and the triple mag pouch carries three of them on one mount.

Do MOLLE pouches need a special belt?
They need MOLLE webbing to mount to — a 1.75″ battle belt, duty rig, chest rig or plate carrier. They do not mount to a plain trouser belt.

Is a flap or friction retention better?
Friction is faster because there is nothing to unfasten, and it is what most pouches built for speed use. A flap adds security for movement-heavy use at the cost of reload time.

Can I carry a spare magazine concealed?
Yes — but not with a belt pouch, which prints. A magnetic pocket carrier holds the magazine inside the pocket and shows only a clip.

What is the difference between a double mag pouch and two single pouches?
A multi-mag pouch puts every magazine on one mount, so they sit at a fixed spacing and your hand finds the same position each time. Two separate pouches have to be positioned and re-checked independently, and they take up more webbing to hold the same number of magazines.

Will a magnet damage my magazine or ammunition?
No. Neodymium magnets do not affect modern ammunition or steel magazine bodies, and the magnet grips the magazine body without interfering with the spring or follower.

How many spare magazines should I carry?
Most people concealing every day carry one, because a second spare is the one that gets left at home. On a belt or rig where weight and printing are not the constraint, a full reload set on a single mount is the more common answer.
