Baofeng UV-5R+ Pouch

[Crapshoot]

So I'm looking at getting a Baofeng UV-5R+, and I would need a new pouch for it because it's obviously bigger than a talk about. For those of you that own them, do you use MBITR pouches or something else?

I have one but I'm modding an mbitr shell to fit it inside. If you are going to run just the radio then the mbitr pouch will be huge for just the radio. It might work out fine if you use the extended battery though. Otherwise you will probably want a smaller pouch.

MBITR pouch is too large for a Baofeng UV-5R.

I use this and it works perfectly. The top of the Baofeng doesn't even go above the lowest part of the pouch. But it stays in nice and tight.

I can second the pouch Gunny has. I've got the same one and it works great.

I use an MBITR pouch with a wade of paper towels rolled up underneath the radio so that the volumn control pokes out of the top of the pouch.

Ghetto solution, but it works 90% of the time every time.

Thanks for the replies guys. I was looking at the pouch Gunny linked, but they don't have it in Multicam. Do you think that this pouch will work ( www.tyrtactical.com/products/details/molle-pouches/motorola-xts-radio-pouch/ )? It has pretty similar dimensions as the blackhawk pouch, so in thinking it wild be fine.

^ That will work. Its the exact pouch I run my UV-5R in. I'll post a picture with it in if you'd like.

That'd be great if you could.

Any of you dudes running the extended batteries? I got one for mine, and its significantly longer than the normal one.

I'm going to assume that with the extended battery the top of the radio would pop out the top of the pouch the perfect amount.

Oh shit yeah it will!

Thanks, homie!
