Rex Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) I recently purchased the Condor MCR5 Recon Chest Rig (link below). So far, I've use the rig once and I am quite pleased with how it retains my magazines and allows me a great deal of freedom in movement. However, I've found that I'm still missing the miscellaneous storage capacity of my old tactical vest (very bulky and cheaply made). In order to address this, I'd like to purchase a molle pouch/bag that is relatively thin, but large enough to cover the majority of the space provided on the side of the rig. Essentially, I'm looking for advice on specific molle pouches that will give me a good amount of storage but will not stick out further than a few inches. Thanks! http://www.amazon.com/Condor-Recon-Chest-Rig-Black/dp/B006OOJJN0?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01 Edited May 18, 2016 by RexPapa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endgame Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I bought some HSGI Taco pouches from Vacceo a couple of years back and don't regret getting them. The retention on them is a little tight but adjustable. Mine are double-stack so they sit out about 3 inches from my MAV surface. I'm almost certain that single stack tacos are available if that's what you're looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AceReaper Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I run 3 single mag tacos on the front of my JPC, and couldn't be happier with them, even with their price tag. They'll fit just about any mag you want, I've set ak47, ak74, m4, m14, scar-h, and even G36 mags in these pouches with no issues. All you have to do is adjust the retention straps on each pouch.

Rex Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Thank you or the suggestion. I wasn't very specific in my original post but I'm really looking for miscellaneous molle bags that will allow me to store additional bb's, dead rag, tools... etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Admin pouch comes in handy for little items. For BBS I use Walmart brown mustard bottles.. Cheesy yes but fits a m4 pouch perfectly. Makes a good way to carry ammo in a existing pouch. Medic pouches are also small and flat and make good extra pouches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AceReaper Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Utility pouches are good too, i use a horizontal condor utility pouch for my misc tools and spare bbs, works great for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 I was looking at the horizontal Condor pouch but I don't think it will work on my chest rig very well due to it being on my sides. I'm currently considering the Condor Sidekick since it is nearly as tall as the aide of my rig and should have enough storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russian Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Maybe like an IFAK or something of the sort. Personally I run light rigs that are pretty basic, because after putting so much on, I realize that I dont use most of the crap. For bigger Games I just run my mags on a rig and then an assault pack for anything that dosent need to be accessed quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NebAnon Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) I have a small utility/hydrobladder pouch that I strap to my back and if I need anything, I ask a teammate to help me out. I keep my spare bbs in a sriracha bottle for bigger games. I just run my mags in the front, drop pouch on the side, utility/hydro pouch in the back, hydro bladder in the vest, and utilize my pockets. That seems to get me by, but for bigger games, I will bring a backpack onto the field and stage it at a FOB with some cheaper necessities.http://www.first-spear.com/images/D/IMG_6440_pouches.jpg Edited May 19, 2016 by Lord Voldemort Nebanon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectra Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) I was looking at the horizontal Condor pouch but I don't think it will work on my chest rig very well due to it being on my sides. I'm currently considering the Condor Sidekick since it is nearly as tall as the aide of my rig and should have enough storage. I run a Condor Sidekick on my JPC (on the side webbing) and I like it a lot. I usually have my pocket knife, M4-style speed loader, a small bottle of BBs, electrical tape, and a backup mini battery in there and it fits them comfortably.
