Folks,

 

My appologies if this question is too basic...I am looking to get 4 magazine holders for my 1911 sig 45...There are so many choices and without trying them myself hard to decide.

 

Which of these whould you choose or could you recomend another make model?

Two of these will put you in good stead...

either choices will work.

 

for the lower end, the double bladetech pouches are fantastic. (the ones pizza bob linked) If you want much more adjustability, get individual mag pouches like cr speed, DAA, or Safariland.

I have the blackhawk single mag holders in both 9mm and 1911:

I like them better than my double mag pouch.

Optics Planet has good prices on them

Check out the Comp-Tac pouches. A little more expensive but exposes more of the mag and spaces them better for easy access.

Thanks for your help Everyone - Helps me very much to norrow down choices.

If you do not want to spend alot, you can go with these iTac magazines sold by Target Sports. You really can't beat the price if you are looking for a double mag pouch. They are held on by paddle so it will not be as secure as one held by Tek Lok. They feel pretty secure and I do not feel them moving around.

You would want the single stack variant for your 1911. They come in 3 colors (Black, Green, Tan). The standard double stack will fit most double stack magazines except Glock mags.

 

Single mag pouches will be more comfortable and will allow you to angle the mags depending on where they are placed on your belt so they will be easy to grab. The single mag pouches will be more of an investment though. I guess if I get better, I'll get better mag holders.

The iTac ones are pretty decent, except for the paddle. They make a nice, adjustable for width, belt loop attachment, but to buy them with the paddle and then convert them isn't cost effective - may as well just buy the Blade-Tech revolution holders. The iTac arrangement allows you to rotate the holder, so you can angle them for easier access/withdrawal (this can be done on the paddle also). It would be nice if they would import them with your choice of belt loop or paddle, but I don't believe they do.

 

Adios,

Thanks again Everyone,

 

I ordered the Blade Teck doubles --- they seem to be at a good price/quality point, especially for a Newbe to Practical shooting...Also the tek-loc will match what I am getting from Blade tec on my holster when it comes in september....

 

And I already have a Brownel's account ;-).

 

I can always upgrade later if I see a reason....Being a Newbe I find it hard to understand that the angle, or other parameters, of the mag holder can materially impact ones times - is this true?

 

Thanks,

-Joe
