I realize this is a mag pouch but since you can use it for black rifles I figured this would be the place to post it. I'm also intrigued by them planning on an AK version. I wonder and hope that CZ/VZ mags will fit.

About the same price as a HSGI TACO (1 mag capacity) or ITW FASTmag (1 mag capacity), I wouldn't trying these regulation pouches (2 mag capicity) out!

Um, I think we need this moved into the 'Gear' section.
 
Interesting product. I would be curious to see them field tested. What happens when you go prone a bit hard on an empty pouch, how tough is the internal mechanism, can I dissassemble it to clean and dry after I get it wet, or muddy etc.....

Certainly a cool idea though

Problem #6
When designing the Reflex Mag Pouch one of our priorities is durability. We put our gear through a lot of punishment and it needs to hold up.
Our Solution

The pressure mechanism has no moving mechanical parts so it won't break. It is designed to be rugged, you can stomp on it and it won't affect the mechanism. You can leave your magazine inside the pouch for any entire deployment and it'll still work (see video).

I'm sure they did field tests or at least simulated field tests at they are ex military. If I can drop on it and not break it then I'd buy

Every company claims there product to be awesome, ground breaking, and the best there is, it's standard salesmanship. Read any manufacturers website and tell me they don't claim there product to be amazing.

All that is besides the point, I didn't say anything negative about the thing, just that it would be interesting to see how it held up to punishment. That's all ;)
 
Why go heavier when the trend is lighter? Empty mags go on the ground not back in the pouch. If not on the ground then a dump pouch or other.

the booth guy explains why in the Funker tactical video fairly clearly. it's about saving time and energy. If you're reaching to a dump pouch thats another half second that there is no mag in your rifle. with this, since you're hand is already there putting away the old mag you just quickly grab the new one. Then there's the issue of the dump pouch. It hangs off you're side with loose mags inside bouncing around against your leg and making noise, not exactly the most comfortable solution.

i personally also like to consider weight redistribution to be an issue. during a long fire fight using a dump pouch you'll find you've redistributed weight which was comfortably near your center of mass towards one side. Albeit empty mags are light and doesn't really make too much of a difference, it's enough to make you slightly uncomfortable walking around.

last point, dumping mags on the ground is generally a big no no unless you're really in an emergency.

On a tac reload the weapon is topped up before the partial mag is stowed.

Having a few aluminum mags hanging off my side is vastly preferable to having empty or partial mags mixed in with fully loaded ones.

That's the whole point...reloading an empty weapon is an emergency.

Correct me if I'm wrong but if your now walking around with empty mags in your dump pouch, why wouldn't you bomb them back up before setting off again? Or migrate your loaded mags forward and stick the empties to the rear.

it's about saving time and energy

I'd rather save a couple pounds of weight in my gear, which in turn saves more energy over the long haul than just on a reload.
