    I'm looking for a good brand of horizontal owb single magazine pouches. It will be carried around the 7-8 o'clock position on my belt. I prefer leather but a good kydex pouch would work as well. I would like some to fit my Shield 45 mags, and one to fit my CZ P10F mags.

    Does anyone use these or know of a company that sells them?

    I found something like this one but would like some of your opinions on which would be a good one to invest in.

    Or do we have a Hoosier business that makes something like this.

    Those seem reasonable, have seen some good reviews of his stuff before.

    I use Lobo Gun Leather, not sure if they make a horizontal but you can always ask.

    Do you want it so it doesn't poke you in the gut or love handles like a vert pouch can, or do you want it for increased concealability?

    I've got a Dale Rick horizontal shield mag pouch, it's nicely made, but not very concealable imo. For concealment, I've found I can just barely thread a blue force gear pistol mag on to my belt horizontally. These things are super slim, and fairly cheap.

    I have the one you link. I have had fantastic results with all of Dale's products and use them almost exclusively despite a couple of drawers full of stuff from other manufacturers. That being said, horizontal owb
    mag pouch does not work for me. Comfort level is great, concealment not so much. That is me though, YMMV.

    I have used Dale Fricke holsters, as wells as several friends, and he makes quality stuff.

    A few years ago I looked for the least bulky horizontal mag holder I could find, and came up with this one on Amazon:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TROEBYG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Says its made in USA. I have worn it on left side about 10 o'clock since January 2017, first with a 15 round Glock 19 mag and since the 2018 NRA convention in Dallas with a 19-round Glock 19X magazine.

    It shows no sign of cracking, shows very little wear. The magazine has always been held securely. It can be taken on and off with out removing my belt, but it has never come off on its own.

    The only thing I would change about it is to make a double mag holder, although with two 19X magazines I'd probably list to port all the time.

    I bought it for $25 with no shipping charge, current price seems to be $19.99 plus 4.99 shipping. So... two cents cheaper!

    I recommend it.

    I started this quest several years ago and I settled on a Desantis horizontal magazine pouch. They have since discontinued this model. However, you will still see them from time to time on ebay, sometimes in new condition. I almost went with the Galco HMC, which is still in production.

    Both Desantis and Galco make good products that hold up well over time.
