Gadsden Dynamics is set to improve their elastic magazine pouch design. They shared a new prototype for their pouch that will go into production in the near future. The new design uses Cordura on the “corners” to reinforce common wear points on elastic mag pouches and elastic in the center to provide the compliance necessary to accommodate a variety of magazines. It also has the benefit of giving the pouch enough structure to make inserting a magazine with one much hand easier.
Here are some of the details they shared about this pouch and future iterations:
Fits any 556 rifle magazine
Unique 4” elastic/Cordura retention system designed for ease of single-handed magazine insertion and 1000D Cordura reinforced edges for vastly improved durability and longevity
Secures to any MOLLE panel, standard every day carry belt, OR most inner/outer duty belts
No raw laser cut edges (except MOLLE slots), so no worries about fabric edges fraying
AK, 7.62, and pistol mag pouch options are next to come!
Stay tuned for more details on availability and what other products in the Gadsden Dynamics lineup will inherit this new design.
Lester River Bushcraft’s popular Boreal Shirt might be available with some decidedly “tactical” mods if enough people are interested. The Boreal Shirt is already pretty practical in that it is a high performance wool layer that is well suited to many conditions.
The mods include a chest pouch with 3 cells. The two outer pockets are sized to fit phones, small cameras, radios, rifle magazines, and more. The central pocket can fit items like knives, multitools, flashlights, and more. The final mod is the addition of abrasion resistant material added to the backs of the sleeves (Multicam Black is shown).
If you want one of these modified Boreal Shirts, you will have to contact Lester River Bushcraft directly on Instagram or their website.
