Särmä TST Rifle Magazine Pouch

The best rifle magazine pouch/multipurpose pouch on the market. One that actually works with different caliber rifle mags. You can use the same pouch e.g. for AR and AK magazines, and they stay there even in very active duty. The versatile pouch can be used with the flap, with the elastic band, or as an open-top pouch. You can also use it as a general-purpose pouch.

For larger magazines, here's the Särmä TST 7.62 NATO Rifle Magazine Pouch.

Finally a functional AK and AR mag pouch

There are many magazine pouches that in theory work with both AR and AK mags. In practice, the AK magazine fits very poorly especially in the open-top AR pouches, because their shape and center of gravity are so different. Looks pretty at first but things start flying here and there when it is showtime.

The development of this pouch took a year and sucked out all the youth and vitality but it resulted in an awesome super pouch that will store e.g. the 5.56 mm and 7.62x39 mm rifle/carbine mags. The other side of the pouch has an intricate rubber band setup that goes further up than in other pouches. It will push the magazine in place also from above. There are also L-shaped plastic reinforcements on the sides and the bottom of the pouch. The pouch will expand when you push in a wider magazine but also hug the smaller ones tightly like a Russian heavyweight wrestler.

Many users, many uses

You can use these pouches with the detachable flap, with the elastic band, or as an open-top pouch. The flap is held in place with Velcro, so you can adjust the height and angle freely. This way you can use magazines of different shapes and sizes. Because the flap is detachable, you can also turn this into an open-top pouch. Additionally, you can anchor the mag in place with an elastic band, which can either be attached the traditional way in the middle or you can put it on the side where it won’t be in the way when you put the mag back in the pouch.

Materials

These pouches are made of tough German 500D Cordura. Thanks to the treatment of the M05 fabric, M05 pouches feel a bit softer.
