Running out of ammunition during an engagement is extremely dangerous, which is why law enforcement officers routinely use magazine pouches to carry spare magazines. At CopsPlus, we carry magazine pouches from some of the world's most popular manufacturers, including Safariland, Bianchi, Gould & Goodrich, Blackhawk and more. Our collection includes pouches sized for a wide range of different ammunition types, including single and double-stack pistol magazines, rifle magazines and more specialized options like Taser cartridges and 40mm grenades.
Magazine pouches may hold one or more magazines. Double carriers are extremely popular, while users who prefer to carry a lot of ammunition can find triple or even larger designs. Typically, pouches designed to carry multiple magazines store them in completely separate compartments, improving the level of protection and allowing the user to draw one without accidentally removing others. The compartments may be left open for extremely rapid access, or protected with a top flap, typically fastened with hook and loop or a snap to allow a quick draw. Open-top styles may feature shock cord lacing or adjustable tension devices to improve retention.
Magazine pouches are designed to be worn in a variety of ways. The most common designs are belt-mounted, and either attach to the duty belt overtly or use belt hooks for concealed inside-the-waistband wear. However, styles designed to attach to MOLLE or other webbing straps are also very common, thanks to their ability to be worn on tactical vests and other diverse platforms, and leg drop carriers are also widely used as they can be worn easily with body armor. Our selection also includes more specialized designs, including ankle band magazine carriers and platforms that combine a magazine compartment with space for other equipment, such as a set of handcuffs.
