For those of you that have shot USPSA, What brand of Mag Pouches do you like? and is there an advantage of using the single pouch vs. the double pouch? Had any trouble with any particular brands or styles?
Anyway, Sig P226R, 40, double stack mec-gar mags. Will probably shoot in the Production class or Limited?
When I started, I just bought the el-cheapo Fobus double-mag pouches (3 of them, so I could carry six mags---Production Division) and they worked just fine.
Sometime in there I bought myself some CR Speed pouches, and they ARE better. (Double-Alpha, Safariland, and at least one other company who's name I am forgetting all make good competition pouches.) However, when just starting, spending $20 each for three double-mag pouches beats spending $35 each for 5 or 6 pouches. And quite frankly, when I started I wasn't good enough for my
mag pouches to be what was holding me back from winning.
I'd suggest the cheap Fobus double-mag pouches. At the cheapest price you can find. If you find later that you are going to keep doing the competition stuff, and seriously work on going up in class---then later, when you know more about what exactly you want, you can get the more expensive pouches.
Just my opinion. (I made B and later A class with a $15 Uncle Mikes kydex holster and the Fobus pouches on a Bianchi belt. So it can't be THAT hard! It is also true that now I run a Blade-Tech DOH holster and CR Speed pouches and belt---but I didn't actually get those things until I knew what I wanted and had seen how the various choices worked.)
