Does anyone know if you can fit two single-stack mags in each side of a double-stack mag pouch?

For example, I have a leather mag pouch for a Glock 22 (double-stack). Can i fit two Sig P220 (singe-stack) mags in each side of the mag pouch?

Not usually.

I believe Gould and Goodrich makes a Pouch that is the size of a Glock mag carrier that is designed to hold 2 rows of single stack mags on each side.

ETA also check on Officer.com in the forums for more info, that is where I seem to remember seeing about it.


Hope this helps.

Probably not.

Keep in mind the two single stack mags together are probably going to be wider than a single double stack mag (which has staggered rounds).

Also, if the mag floorplates are wider that the mag body, they will both interfere with each other and make the setup even wider.

And if you remove one mag from the pouch, the second one is going to fall out pretty easily.

OTOH, one specifically designed for this should work with no problems.  I recall seeing one somewhere designed along the lines you mention for Beretta 92 mags (maybe made by Bianchi?).

I found this one from Gould & Goodrich. I don't think i can get the Hidden Snaps feature though. That's what I wanted.

I had a Sgt. at a previous PD in which I was a reserve that fit two 1911 mags in each side of a Bianchi Accumold mag ouch for the USP mags.

A.E. Nelson Leather makes two different models.  One orients the mags only in a horizontal way, the other is more conventional, allowing either horizontal or vertical mounting.   Their products tend to be top notch.  www.nelsonleather.com

My problem is that none of the designs put the magazines at different levels.  For instance, the interior magazine should be lower so that you can get a good index on the outside magazine.  I carry three single stack mags on my belt, two in a double on my support side and one in a single behind the gun.

This is Nelson's triple but their quad horizontal is similar:

Give Andy a shout. He does a lot of work for the Vancourver PD, RCMP and Corrections Canada. I've seen some of his stuff. Very well made.  He's always up for a challenge.
