What is this? A magazine to feed magazines?

MSRP of $296.00?

Well, it is interesting.  I'm sure that someone will buy it.

Regular pouches have worked fine for me so far.

Someone will want it though.

MSRP down to $207.20 per System (One F.A.S.T. and two carriers).

Time spent reloading is time not spent in the fight, so this system looks like great advantage for any soldier or LEO who fires more than 30 rounds at a time.

The only worry I would have would be magazine retention during combat maneuvers. Is a magazine going to pop out every time you hit the dirt?

Pretty cool, but probably belongs in the useless crap thread.  Pretty cool, though.

Whats the weight?  Does it rattle?  What if you fall on it will it break?  What if it goes down.. is there a manual overide like a door on top or something?  If you fall and it does not break... do mags spit out?

What happens when a bullet goes through it?  How does it stand up to sand/water/dust intrusion?

DOES THE COOL HAIRCUT COME WITH IT?

If you "need" to reload that fast that often then I would think (I have zero gunfight experience) you would try using your legs and at least get behind some cover if not completely outta Dodge. Again, I have zero experience. Flame suit is on.

It's one of those things that looks really tactical, but not really prctical.  Maybe a three gunner can make use of it.  It looks like something that can go wrong when you need it most.  My chest rig doesn't jam.  I know that for sure.

Got an answer back on my question to S.T.R.A.C. Technologies:

*****,

The F.A.S.T. System is not compatible with PMAGS.

When I was an infantry dude, I carried 12+1 magazines.  I don't think there is enough real estate on my body for four of those.  Interesting idea, but I'm not feelin' it.

I'm not seeing how that's an improvement from a standard mag pouch.
