What are the pros and cons of the comp tac magazine holsters (dual for m&p 9 mags) vs the kydex "pancake" ones and vice versa? I'm about to order a m&p 9 full size holster from kydex tech and can't decide if I want the mag carrier from him also or just go comp tac. I won't carry it concealed often, it will mostly be for range use and a few competitions.

Wait time plus preference. I prefer the look of the pancake carrier. I also like having color options. If I need it in a hurry, I look at Raven. If a two month wait doesn't bother me, I go with JM Custom.

For OWB I did the BravoConcealment dual mag kydex holster.  For IWB I did the leather Comp-tac pouch.  Been happy with them.

It will really come down to what you like and what works for you.

All I have ever used for competition was a cheapo bladetech setup and it worked just fine. I ended up ordering a double pouch and holster (m&p 9 w/ inforce apl) from KydexTech. If the quality is good I will probably order the same setup for my FNX-9.

This is the correct answer.  Don't bother with iwb if you're not going to carry everyday.  If you do get one, the Comp-tacs work great and are comfortable.

I have  Comp Tac, Raven, High Speed Gear and other random mag pouches. The Comp Tac is removed and put on with out removing belt, but sticks further out from belt, and sits lower.  Raven is very tight to belt, holds mag higher on belt, and needs to be put on with belt unbuckled. I use it daily, it hides better. The High Speed Gear are great for classes but don't hide very well.

I am pretty happy with the Kydex Tech double pouch I got and it is even concealable with just a T shirt on, although it is sorta uncomfortable. The mags hold very tight to my body and the floor plates kinda dig into my skin since I rarely wear an undershirt in the spring/summer.
