SAG Gear KDL Double M4 Mag Pouch

OptimusPrime

Airsoft World now has this in stock and you can get it for £17.99... "Another unique product from SAG Gear - these guys just don't think like other manufacturers! Have a look at the video to get an idea of how this pouch works and how to get the best out of it. Rock solid construction, can be mounted vertically or horizontally and holds two M16 / M4 magazines completely secure until you need them.

The best thing about SAG Gear products? Real steel quality at simply amazing prices. Love them? Oh yes we do!

We asked SAG Gear for a description of how they go about designing their gear: 'Regarding how we design... We try to identify main problems and make few assumptions. Problems depend on the product, assumptions are always pretty much the same. The product must be durable and reliable (this affects materials we use), simple and quick to operate (as in combat there is no time for complicated operations) and above all - useful.

I'll try to show you the process on KDL pouch. We started on identifying main problems with traditional' pouch. In this case, it was: loud opening (velcro) and flap falling down immediately after opening, getting in way with drawing the mag.

Also, we decided that magazines must be secured in pouch (which eliminated shingle prom our options) and quick to draw. We decided to reverse the flap so it wouldn't block the magazines when opened and replaced velcro with shockcord.

Although Velcro is still present in pouch, it is for mounting exchangeable flaps, and since very few people do it under fire, loud noise is no longer a problem. The outcome you know. :)

However, this flap has also some flaws, resulting directly from construction - e.g. mags are not protected from the rain. For that, you need full flap ('boxed') and we haven't found a way to make a full flap with above merits.

That's why pouch is intended for exchangeable flaps. If you plan a long patrol in rainforest - you can take a full flap. If you'll be operating in urban environment - our standard one, or no flap at all. Bottom line - we think on how to make better products, not mindlessly copying what's already on the market.'"
