I'm currently using three single mag pouches and have been looking for something with a bit more capacity. So, after some looking, I ran across THIS LITTLE BUDDY (http://www.tuffproducts.com/product.php?productid=16235&cat=267&page=1). I was just wondering in anyone else has had any experience with this.

Are they too close together to be useful at faster speeds?
Is 8 magazines going to be overly cumbersome on a 2.5" belt?

I like the concept because you can carry a whole lot more ammo... less walkin', more shootin'.

Whatdaya think?

Seems like it would be hard to grab the mags if you didnt have skinny fingers.

i haven't tried 8, but i've carried 6 1911 mags in the EMDOM/MM 6o4 pouch that i designed, and it's not too cumbersome:

when the mags are that close together, you learn to use your index finger to grab the lip of the base plate and extract one at a time. you get used to it.
