So, as promised, this blog isn't just about gun reviews. I also will take the time to review tactical gear on its usefulness and quality, to help determine if its worth the cost. I'm a college student, so I don't always have a lot of extra money laying around for airsoft, so when I can get a deal, I'll pass it on.
MOLLE gear (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) is very popular among airsoft players for many reasons. It can be modified to fit the players needs, whether the player prefers carrying a high volume of extra magazines, or would rather take a minimalist approach and carry as little gear as needed. Pouches can be arranged to suit the users taste, and can carry almost anything into the field; some pouches are specifically designed for magazines, others for grenades, while others simply serve as general purpose pouches. This review, as the title suggests, will focus on the Condor Double Kangaroo Pouch (Black) from Shorty USA. For the low price of $14.99, you get two M4/M16 style magazine pouches, along with two pistol magazine pouches. This combination is perfect for players who use hi-cap magazines and only need to carry a limited number, or for players who use mid-cap magazines and speed loaders, as the pistol pouches will accommodate the speed loaders perfectly. The rifle magazines are held in place by an elastic cord, while the pistol magazines are secured by Velcro. To get this combination of pouches separately would cost over $30 ($12 for the Double Open Top Rifle Pouch and $8 each for the Pistol Magazine Pouch).
Pros:
Saves valuable MOLLE real-estate by combining both magazine pouches into one unit
Allows for easy access to magazines for quick reloads in the field
Keeps speed loaders close to magazines for easy access
Cons:
None
Overall: Definitely a great piece of gear to add to a loadout. Well worth the $15, as you get twice the value for which you pay. Highly Recommended.
