They are my favorite as well. Wish I would've started with them, instead of half a dozen other brands.
I do wish they'd make one for a flashlight (ex. SureFire G2). |

Can they hold 556, x39, or x51 mags all with the same pouch?

Literally everything I own that can be Esstac is Esstac, and the guys I train with are jealous AF.
I could probably sell my ASS for a profit at this point What's the hold up on those? If y'all need help, why not just hire some illegals who can stitch? |

I literally searched for a multicam ass for months before I gave up and bought a normal deaodon. Being a small frame the ass wouldve fit better. But now I have a nice new full size carrier

Can you even put your hands on anything made by them these days? I wanted to set up a minimalistic black belt with a single rifle mag pouch, med kit and double pistol mags, and I struck out completely. I have an extra double pistol mag pouch kicking around, but the rest? Huh, right. The word is out on Esstac, they are hard to get.
I do like the three belts I have set up with their stuff though, great gear. |

It is just that specific winter time uniform for the Marines (don't know what it is called... puke Arid?) is not tasteful. This is strictly opinion though. Why you have no banana pouch? Nana mag need nana pouch! |

At least a bunch of that is just ordering for my son and almost son-in-law, so I'll get a bunch of the money back. Off to Esstac... Thanks Whiskers. |

Like other threads this one cost me money. I ordered a shooters belt, single KYWI midlength 5.56 pouch, double pistol gap pouch for the start of a battle belt setup, and a triple 5.56 midlength pouch to put on my carrier.
I ordered on Friday and recieved everything today, super fast! Now I need to figure out a holster for a m&p 2.0 and medical stuff. |

I have some stuff from them and I really like it all, but why don't they put a tag on their stuff?
I have a couple of belts and several mag pouches and none of them have tags. It just seems weird that they wouldn't mark their products. |

They also know the wearer of said pouches do in fact fuck. |

They are great for are but they are a bit bulky. They are roughly the same size of a double stack AR pouch. I’m trying to keep bulk off my belt and keep it slim so I don’t use them on my belt. I tend to use them either stand alone on a PC or stacked on a chest rig. Besides their bulk, depending on the pistol mags you use it can make it harder to get to your rifle mags. Since I use tall boys I’m a little slower from those pouches. That said Esstac does give enough space between the mags so it isn’t that bad. Oh and finally if you care, (I don’t), if you are using an extension on your pistol mags they will rub together messing up the finish on the extensions. Just FYI.

Been thinking of buying a single short rifle pouch and a double gap pistol pouch for a belt. Any thoughts on the logic of including molle on the front vs not?
I can't think of anything I might ever want to attach to the molle on the front of the pouch, and I can see the value of having a slick front surface. On the other hand, adding the molle only costs one dollar extra per pouch, and having it there gives me options if I ever change my mind and want to attach something there. |

I like the looks of the slick but the utility of the molle is worth it IMO. Even if it's for something simple like a clip to hang a pair of gloves off of. |

Quote HistoryYep. I <3 USGI triple shingles for ARMags. And USGI pistol mag pouches for mags and lights. A double M4 pouch for IFAK. $40 shipped from Ebay for a LBV, two triple shingles, four pistol pouches, and a double M4. The stuff is almost always new in the original packaging. How well do the Esstacs retain when prone or crawling? I took a class many years ago with some goober with all cheap open top pouches. One exercise was crawling between prone shooting positions. He left a trail of mags behind him the whole way. |

To answer the subject questions, Esstac makes the best magazine pouches. Why does Esstac make the best magazine pouches? Because they are made with 50% love, 50% sarcasm, and 50% concentrated unbridled patriotic fury.
Yes, that is 150% motherfucker. |
