That looks to be the Duty Belt version which does not work on MOLLE.

Here is the MOLLE version in 2 mag: http://www.eagleindustries.com/product.php?productid=397&cat=24&page=1

It is the duty belt version, but still used to be available in khaki, OD and black. I have one in OD & Black.

I currently use an Eagle Web belt, and wanted to do the same setup for an HK45 using the triple mag USP duty belt FB pouch and a Safariland 6004-3930 all in green.

That being said, it looks like they also killed the 1x2 and 2x4 molle FB pouches, which I also liked and wanted to get a set to swap out my 1911 mag versions for G17 versions.



Anyone know of other mag pouches with an open top design and kydex lined with superior retention?

I went looking for the link to the single FB duty belt pouches for an ad I recently posted and couldn't find them.

Shivan, try www.usgruntgear.com he does a PVC-reinforced magazine pouch, AR and pistol, and can do whatever attachment method you want (duty, MOLLE, etc.).

The USGRUNTGEAR 4th gen special custom looks like it might work, but it's custom order only. :(

If I go "custom" Rob, think he can make it up two pistol mags on the front of the shingle followed by the double stacked M4/Hk45 mag stacks??

Rob are you using the 4th Gen stuff? I do not like the elastic tension version at all, ditched all my DBT and Eagle stuff that used that method.

I am using 4th gen, which is PVC lined pistol & rifle. You can see it in the background here with the G2 and Pmag (designed for a Glock mag but the light works just as well). I need to get him to make me a pistol-only pouch to replace the half-Eagle (chopped a double down) that's on the belt now in front of the Pmag.

TT has some pistol pouches that are lined with a plastic insert. Nice thing about them is they will take a 1911 or a Glock magazine. KevinB used to run them, IIRC.

Shivan if you want a khaki FB pouch for your belt the other thing you can do is buy the FB MOLLE pouch and then contact Chris at Down Range Gear for some belt stabilizers: http://downrangegear.com/MALICE_Clip_Belt_Stabilizer.html

This is the path I'm contemplating right now.

I might try these with the Tactical Tailor Magna pouches.

Good catch but those are rifle mag pouches, here are the pistol mag pouches (with a Khaki option!): http://www.triadtactical.com/Duty-Mag-Pouch-FB-Style.html

All colors at Triad are out of stock. But it reinforces to me that I wasn't crazy about the pouches being available in Khaki, OD and Black. Eagle must have punted...

Since I have a handy dandy spreadsheet for this kind of stuff (see link in my sig; go to pistol mags and filter for Belt Attach=Yes) I checked it out to see what else is out there and came across these DBT pouches:

http://www.diamondbacktactical.com/catalog/9mm,37.htm

I'm guessing 9mm = double-stack and .45 = single stack but you should probably check with them.
