There's an old saying that if you talk too much, you tell on yourself. Your referenced statement informs me that you know exactly what you're doing.Originally Posted by rob_s
To save room, I'd personally like to do a secondary mag stacked on primary mag setup, as shown in your last picture.
ETA: How secure are the open-topped mag pouches?

The Eagle FB ones hold the mags tight enough that unless I was hanging by my feet being shook (you never know it could happen) they'll still hold tight.
The key is firm hold but smooth draw.

If I bend over to tie my shoe, the mags "spring into action".

Yeah I just put a mag in the pistol version and shook the shit out of it and it didn't move a mm.

Does your fobus holsters provide any tension adjustment?I ask, because I have a FOBUS kydex holster supposedly designed for USP45 mags, that have about as much retention as a 55 gallon oil drum.

This particular model does not. It's a dual-mag paddle holster, and it sucks. I just looked for it, but I'm thinking I may have thrown it in the can.

Even though they won't fit on molle rigs, I really like the comptac pouches.

Rob-
Looking at your pics it seems to me that you have a lot of room still available to let the belt out to give you more PALS area toward the front. This will let you fit a FB double to the left of the buckle instead of having to split the mags accross your rifle mags.
Just a thought, and how I have mine setup when not in support of heavy armor.

F2S I'm considering that. I'm also thinking that if I move the pouch at the rear, I can move the whole arrangement back one notch.
It is critical to me that I match my regular pistol carry setup as much as possible.

Rob,
I generally agree with your sentiment of wanting it to be as close to your carry rig as possible. But don't you carry a 1911 regularly?
