What do you think about the Taco Double Decker? Do you think it would be easy to get the pistol mag out when you still have the rifle mag in?

Would it be better to run the pistol and rifle pouch separate?

What about X2R? Will the 2nd mag flop around when you take out the 1st? Will the 2nd mag slightly pull out when you pull out the 1st?

I like it.  Yes it is easy FOR ME to get the pistol mags out with the rifle mag still in.  A little practice to get your proficiency using that set-up will definitely help.

Would it be better to run the pistol and rifle pouch separate?
To me that is a personal preference decision.  By running separate pouches you spread things out.  I don't like having reach for mags.

What about X2R? Will the 2nd mag flop around when you take out the 1st? Will the 2nd mag slightly pull out when you pull out the 1st?
I have no experience with that item.  You have the same concern that I would have with that pouch.

Same here? What are the pros and cons for the chest and belts? I was thinking the belts flop around more when you run but chest style is bulky and top heavy.

I used to have six or eight mags on a belt in taco-style pouches and a dump pouch snack pouch.  I never carried mags on my MTV...only thing on there was my IFAK, admin pouch (pic of girlfriend, laminated 9-line cheat sheets, etc.), and a grenade pouch that held ear pro and clear lenses for my Oakleys.  Tourniquets were kept in the IFAK and on the opposite cargo pocket.  Never carried a tactical knife MRE opener as a 3-4" folder in my pocket worked well enough for almost everything I needed (and if anything, there was a boot with a 12-inch Ka-Bar nearby if a serious knife was really needed).

The "flopping around" of the belt didn't really happen, and I liked to be able to just tug on my belt and twist it around to be able to have mags on either side at will.  A friend of mine who also had a slick vest favored the HSGI belt, but I was fine with mine.

Hey cool thanks for the link BLKDRGN.   I'm going to try out their bridge mount platform to use with a pair of double tacos.  Belt slide so will work with any belt!  But I think they missed the boat on making it "dual use"- with a vest or not - and have my own mod in mind.  Involves velcro and what seems to me an easy sewing mod.  Hope it works!   :D

If you are looking for a battle belt, I think Macsak is the guy to talk to  :shaka:

These are all good replys from personal experiences not a sales guy and I too run a belt consisting of g code holster, hsgi double ar mag and sigle pistol tacos,  maxpedition dump pouche for the more combat days or if I'm running on the lighter side cr speed belt with the 2 single hard ar and 2 pistol mag holders and g code holster system. As like with everyone else it is just personal preference.  :shaka:
