Any suggestion for magazine holders for competition guys and gals? Picked up a Fobus double mag paddle today. I do not really like it but bought it anyway. Can someone lead me in the right direction. Thanks.
-
What kind of competition? IDPA? IPSC?
-
Any of the competitions. Trying to get info on the this part of the gear, mag holders, and go from there.
-
diffrent games have diffrent rules.
IDPA it must be concealed.
-
In IDPA you don't have to use magazine carriers. You can stuff them in your pocket. Slows down the re-load alittle.

Blade Tech has inexpensive as well as higher priced holsters and mag pouches. I use the inexpensive mag pouches and they work well for IDPA and USPSA. Comp Tac has higher priced equipment. Both are good. Many of the leather holster makers have quality products (holsters as well as mag pouches). Blackhawk has quality stuff also. Check out Dillon. They sell that kind of stuff.
FWIW

All of my present stuff is almost all Blackhawk and a little Fobus. When I look at the Pro's I see mags wrapped around the sides of them, I wonder what they are using? Thanks for all the input. Really appreciate all the help.
I noticed that several of the competitors do use Blade Tech along with some of the self defense classes. May have to take a hard look at them.

My stuff is all USPSA.
For single stack I use Uncle Mike Kydex double with belt loops (I have a paddle for sd holster and mags, but hate it);
Production I am looking for a kydex double with belt loops, but have not found one yet (haven't look too hard yet either);
Limited and Open I use CR Speed Versa Pouch;
Revolver I use California Competition Works shoot-a-moon, but I'd like something a little easier;
Shotgun I use California Competition Works 4 shell holders (may try some 6 round holders yet);
And for the AR I haven't found a mag pouch yet. I have two 30 rounders locked together and haven't need more mags yet (I do throw one more 30 rounder in my back pocket just in case).

These are very cool
I would and may still order one but I do have a set of Fobus 6900 paddles for now.

Most of the guys in USPSA are using either Safariland, CR Speed, or some type of Kydex (Blade-Tech, Comp-tac, etc.)

For single stack and Production, I use the kydex Blade Tech double holders with the tek-lok attachments. For Limited, I use the CR Speed versa pouches. I'd say 60% of the mag carriers I see at matches are one or the other, with Safariland, comp-tac, and the occasional vintage leather rigs rounding out the crowd.

Thanks everyone. Checked out some different holsters that were referred on here. Ended up ordering a Blade Tech Bobby McGee Pro Series Pak. They were the only ones that I saw that made something especially for a Glock 24. I appreciate all the input.
