Direct Action makes one similar:
https://us.directactiongear.com/dump-pouch#MCM I have one mounted to my belt using a BFG 10 Speed pouch. Ultra lightweight and it can be all bundled up together into a small package if I don't need them. If I do need either the dump pouch, an extra mag pouch or both, I just deploy them. |

Got a Kore B1 in Ranger Green today. Ordered Wednesday from Kore! Wore it around the house and love it so far. Werks M7 holster and I forget what brand mag carriers. Can't wait for a 2 gun shoot next Sat. I ordered hoping to get it by then, and it's here. |

View Quote After trying a half dozen other dump pouches, Direct Action's pouch proved to be a perfect fit. The design's partial rigidity opens up a lot of options; (plus makes it more stable than Flatline's & BFG's mini dump pouches). Here's how I use mine: Equipment ID: - Direct Action Dump Pouch - Thyrm CellVault & Shaw ETA; (both attached directly to the pouch) - Kolchan Fast Mag Mini; (Ukrainian version of the HSGI Taco, but better designed) - BFG 10-speed double pistol pouch Notes: - Top left pane: this how I normally wear it, tied at the top with the integrated shock cord, and secured at the bottom with a ranger band. - Top middle pane: shows the inner contents are accessible after releasing just the top, plus it makes for a functional temporary storage "bowl" for loose rounds & foamies. - Top right pane: how it's attached to the belt. - Bottom left pane: Due to the rigidity, a void remains open when tied, so mags can be re-indexed. - Bottom right: Shown fully open. When open, it can hold 5-6 AR mags + 2 pistol mags, (in addition to a mag in the pouch). The only problem I had was tracking one down. Direct Action drops products like an IG hype beast operation. I ended up having to order it from Emperion Store in Europe, shipping took about 5 days (impressive). |

@sevin8nin - Nice setup! I didn't realize Arbor Arms made a 16oz stowable water bottle pouch; (have only seen the 32oz versions). Very cool, just ordered one.

I'm diggin the whole inner/outer belt systems so far, rock solid! Couple questions. I saw some pages back, I think it was @Lancelot that posted it, someone makes an adapter for the Safariland 2" UBL for 1.75" belts, anyone know who makes 'em? Also, has anyone run one of the Flatline Fiber Co. dump pouches? I like how they're made to run in conjunction with a mag pouch.

If you never roll it up, its fine. If you want it to roll up, you have to let it hang lower than the mag pouch. I like it higher, but I can't roll it up, and it tends to interfere with a second rifle mag pouch. Just my experience. |

View Quote @DilbertWearsPrada good deal man. At the size that it is there's almost no reason not to have it. You can fit an M4 mag in it, you can fit a baofeng or a Motorola XTS 5000 in it. I can throw my cell phone in it. Plastic 16oz disposable bottle, or 16oz nalgene. It's pretty handy. |

Is there something special with using zip ties or just wrap a couple around there?

@Croak
Is this what you were referring to? I would’ve done it the same way as @sp1shooter |
|
|
Yeah, that works. You can also run zip ties vertical through the side of the loops and through the MOLLE to keep the UBL from sliding on the belt.
|
|
|
If the belt has velco on the other side, one wraps on both sides can also prevent the shifting in either direction.

Snuck out and put 100 rounds down the tube of the ol' G19 and 50 thru the 11.5.
I really like where the holster rides but I need to play with the mag pouches some more, not sure if I like them more forward or directly at 9 o'clock. Another beautiful day to be at the range! Attached File |

I recently switched over toa JSTA for medical + 1 rifle/1 pistol and am trying to figure out if I want to expand past that. Shaw seems to have a good option for this.

Is the HSGI Better Inner Belt just about the only option for an inner belt with a buckle that could be worn as an EDC gun belt?
I'm thinking about giving belts another try. I had a HSGI Suregrip a few years back but it was just too bulky so I sold it. I like the idea of the 2 piece belts but only if I can use the outer belt over my everyday belt. I don't want to have to swap inner belts to put on the outer belt. Most of the inner belts seem to rely on cinching down a Velcro strip for closure so I'm not sure how they would hold up to being used everyday. I understand the reasoning, so buckles don't get stacked or cause hotspots, but the buckle on the Better Inner Belt looks pretty low profile. Any other stiff inner belts that have buckles I should be looking at? |

I found Wilder Tactical has an inner belt with a cobra buckle that looks pretty good too. Has the typical cobra buckle cinch down size adjustment vs eyelets. |

I have a HSGI better inner belt and love it. I've tried a handful of other options including the Bianchi style, Lead Devil USA Predator, and Arbor Arms Liner. Worn the HSGI with a battle belt and plain with a paddle holster. I set it at my size and wrapped the loose end with some one wrap. It doesn't loosen up, has enough structure to add some rigidity to my AWS SMU.
