    Here is a quick summary of my review on the HSGI TACO pouches.

    For the complete review follow the link below.

    The HSGI TACO pouches, at least the belt mounted variety, is a
    convenient way to carry an extra magazine on your body without
    needing a purpose built battle belt. This pouch excels because
    you can use it with your EDC belt.

    The TACO pouches are good at excepting various sized mags.
    The pistol mags will fit 1911 mags all the way to FNX .45 mags.
    The same can be said about the rifle version.

    In closing, They work with normal clothing, fit a variety of mags
    (Which saves money), relatively inexpensive.

    I JUST managed to hit the high points of these pouches. I am able
    to go into much more detail in my video linked above.

    Thank you for your attention.

    I ordered 5 of the hsgi belt mount pistol mag holders and two of the belt mount 556 holders a couple weeks ago. Finally getting away from the hodge podge of 3 different brand mag holders on my belt. I have 2 double 556 5.11 brand mag holders I need to find a plain chest rig to put them on for use during carbine classes I've also got 2 of the 5.11 double pistol mag holders to mount on the rifle mag holders if it doesn't end up to bulky or cumbersome on a chest rig.

    I dont have much experience with the 5.11 pouches. Other than the HSGI pouches, im really liking the G-code pouches. I will tentatively say G-code is better than the HSGI. I'll make a full video review once I've had enough time with them.

    HSGI, is bombproof Kit, I’m curious as to why you think G-code copies are better?






    ETA: BTW, that was a decent You Tube review. I subscribed.

    Thank you for subscribing.

    I like the G-Code pouches better because they have a ridgid body instead of the soft nylon body. They also use a rubberized material to add friction. This helps hold the mags without needing to tighten them down crazy. That material is good to because it wont hold water.

    Your written review is pretty vague, I wasn't expecting what I got from your video. Very detailed, phenomenal clarity in the video. Its a nice change of pace from the shaky videos many people upload that ddon't bother to edit the extra parts out. I'd definitely watch your reviews of products that are relevant to me.

    Thank you. My intention is to give a quick overview
    In text and direct people to the video. I know that I
    Prefer to get my information from videos. I find it easy to
    Check when i look through a mountain of text.

    Any reccomendations are welcome.

    Thank you again.
