I was shown one of these today, and I was really impressed. Funny how this wasn't thought of earlier, it's like a magazine for magazines. www.stractech.com/fast.htmlNot sure how well this would work with standard AEG mags, but the PTW losers cool guys shouldn't have any issues...I think.

When i first saw that, I thought it would hold them flat side to flat side, I would've popped one of those in a SAW pouch and have 5-6 mags ready to rock.
But only holding 3 mags, kinda makes it seem like just too much extra, I can continue rocking the duct taped mags.

They aren't cheap. I wanna say they are between 130-190. For what it is, I just don't think its worth it for airsoft. It takes up a lot of room and doesn't hold much. Assuming you have one on the left and right side of the front of your vest, you're only looking at 6+1.

Now they need to make a magazine for that. Were all gonna be loading our mags, then loading our mags into larger mags, than loading those into even larger mags, until we have to carry them all on our back.

Guys, don't get stupid about it, there is a valid point to this piece of gear, in the middle of a firefight, the quicker you can reload, the better, and sub 2 second reloads is really good. And as such, you would only be carrying one on your person. That's 90 rounds + 30 already in your rifle that are rapidly interchangeable to put rounds down range. And when that large magazine starts to get low, you can pull out another AR mag and pop it in there to fill it back up. You won't be carrying multiples of these.

I remember seeing the guy who came up with this idea a few years back. The design looks like it's been through a lot of changes. Cool idea.

The new system is 4 mags, which means 4 on each side of your gut. 8 on the chest is typical, and so is having loose ammo or more loaded out of reach in a ruck or someplace else. Loading the system back up I imagine is just as fast as unloading it.
If there was a remote possibility I was going back to the sand (which there isn't) I would be buying two of them.
