Don't change anything for a few months. Use your current setup because, as you noted, it isn't holding you back. In a few months you'll know more and will have soaked up enough info to make good gear decisions.

^^what he said
I bought the revolution setup for my Glock 21. It's ok I also bought this for my Glock 17. For the extra $30 it was well worth it http://shop.blade-tech.com/product_info.php?cPath=1_130&products_id=6846#.VssoNub1f1I |

I shoot an HK45 out of raven concealment gear. I'm A class in production and M is plenty possible given a little practice.
Your gear does not matter at the lower levels of the sport. At the high end of M class I may need to look into gear tweaks if I want to break into the GM realm. Until then I'm definitely the weak link. Use what you have assuming it's quality gear (sounds like it is). After shooting for a while you may find what you'd like to change for convenience, depending on your personal shooting goals. At that point go for it. |

I always see Uspsa shooters with 5 mag pouches and mags. Is this actually necessary?

Depends on the stage and where you plan to do reloads. For limited capacity divisions the most I can really remember ever using was 4 (including the one in the gun). That being said it doesn't hurt to have the extra peace of mind with a spare or two.

Production you could get away with 4 mags on the belt 99% of the time but that 1% you're boned. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. |

SS Major - 5 is the min for me. I am much happier with 6 (even though I rarely need beyond 4)
For REV I have eight 8 round moon clips plus one in the gun. I rarely go beyond 5 but it never hurts to have extra. I did use 7 on one stage Sunday due to malfunctions. Even in Prod I carry at least 5 mags. You never know when a malfunction might require another mag and some stages are smoother with more reloads. |

Yeah I always ran 4 on the belt and 1 in the gun for both Limited and Production. Can't recall a single time where I wish I had more. |

I have been rocking just a dual mag holder for production. Works for 80% of the stages. Those other 20% though? third mag in back pocket (Starting mag in front pocket). Obviously this is not optimal and I plan on expanding to 4 mag pouches on the belt very soon.

Yeah, it's better to have them & not need them then need them & not have them.
