FMA Kydex Double Magazine Carrier Pouch — FG

Double kydex magazine carrier for pistols, designed for double-stack magazines such as those used in the Glock 17 system and compatibles. Retention relies entirely on the friction between the kydex and the magazine: there is no mechanical lock, which minimises resistance during both draw and reinsertion. The pouch attaches to the belt via an integrated paddle system, compatible with standard tactical belts.

Pure friction retention is the trade-off to consider carefully: the draw is as fast as it gets, with no levers to press or buttons to release, and reinsertion is intuitive with one hand. The downside is that the magazine is not mechanically locked in place, so during intense physical activity or uncontrolled movement it may be less secure than a pouch with an active retention lock. Those who prioritise draw speed in controlled conditions will find this an advantage; those working in high-activity environments where accidental loss is a concern should look at active retention options.

The central screw allows friction tension to be adjusted to accommodate the dimensional tolerances of magazines from different manufacturers, which do not always share the same specifications. The pouch weighs 95 grams and can be configured for either left or right side, making it compatible with any belt setup.

Key points

• Friction retention without a mechanical lock allows fast one-handed draw and reinsertion with no extra steps.
• The central adjustment screw adapts tension to dimensional variations between magazines from different manufacturers, no special tools required.
• The integrated paddle secures the pouch firmly to the belt without requiring MOLLE or additional accessories.
• Left/right configurability makes it suitable for any setup, whether for left-handed shooters or cross-draw positions.
