Gapmaster 2 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Looking for some ideas. Pictures if you have them. How do you guys carry your magazines? Not just to the range, but if you really need to carry them if you get the picture. Thanks in advance. Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I put extras in my cargo pants pockets. Some guys use tactical vests. Some use molle pouches. I'd take a picture but it just looks like a have something in my cargo pants pockets. Can't tell I'm carrying mags. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brian M1 50 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I just did a review of Ace Case shoulder mag pouch: check it out. IMHO, the best solution for $13 http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/78735-ace-case-shoulder-magazine-pouch-review/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ImperialArt 29 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I can carry 8 10/30 ar mags (fitted for my saiga) and 2 standard saiga mags in my tactical vest. Being in california, that means only 100rnds, but then that's why the ammo can is stocked with anything else needed for the range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mossb 1 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I like the Ace stuff which I have for the S12. I just got the Strikehard AK47 Vest for the Saiga 223 and Really like it. You can hold 4 Surefire 30 round mags in the 4 front mag pouches and another two in the left and right side pouches. There's also a large pocket behind these for more mags if need be. Just let Todd know it's for a Saiga. Good dude to deal with and Made in the USA. http://www.strikehardgear.com/ak-47-chest-rig/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gapmaster 2 Posted July 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 That ACE product looks pretty nice. I'm gonna look at the Strikehard vest tonite after super. I was trying to stay away from the vest because it seemed impractical ( to me) to practice. Although, I have never owned one so can't really say. I'm really looking for a way to go from underwear, to out the door with say 8 or 10,--- 10 round factory magazines, and maybe a few Glock 22 magazines, flashlight, knife, in my stocking feet. Or, an all around "any" situation carry. At the range, since the only place I can find to go, only has bench shooting. Would love to be someplace where a guy could shoot steel plates. Anyway, the more ideas the better. Thanks for the information so far and thanks for the links. Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brian M1 50 Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 If you're looking for an emergency unplanned "grab and go" system, I'd just use a small tactical backpack (such as a maxpedition Venture II or small Condor Molle 3 day). Most tactical ones have molle on the outside. That way you can stuff emergencies inside (spare ammo, change of clothes, cleaning kit, toiletries, etc. Small stuff), and on the outside you can attach molle mag pouches (for rifle/pistol or both w/kangaroo pouches).

canoecanoe 63 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 I have two types that I prefer. First are the Hungarian "pleather" 5 mag pouches. they have a leather shoulder strap. I like them a lot. They are pretty economical, also. I have 4 of them. I also like the US Peacekeepers rapid Deployment Bag. It will hold up to (4) 30 round mags if you are careful, or two easily. It also has several zipperd compartments suitable for extra boxed ammo, ear plugs, cleaning stuff, etc. They are a little pricy, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gapmaster 2 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 I like those Peacekeeper bags. Where did you find the Hungarian bags? They look pretty good too. I was also looking at Original SOE gear. Nice, but pricey. Maxpedition has some bags that I think might be pretty good to. Seeing as how I'm pretty much stuck with the ten round mags and they are so much shorter, I think that Maxpedition Fat Boy might be right up my ally. When I pick something up I'll post so everyone can see what I ended up with. Thanks for all the good ideas everyone. Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
canoecanoe 63 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) I got the 5 mag Hungarian from J&G Sales. They ar really cheap, but shippiong is not. However, they are in like new condirion. There is a similar 3 cell Hungarian, without the strap, for 20 round tanker mags. I think I got them from Centerfire.
