    Magazine pouch solutions for skinnier people

    In the last few months I have seen some appreciable weight loss, and also the coming of spring, and warm weather. These two things have made it much harder for me to conceal a reload.

    I'm currently using the Desbiens Reverse Cant Magazine Pouch, and while it has been fantastic, it's also getting harder to hide. It's almost a year old, so the softening of the leather my be in part responsible for its recent visibility. None the less, I'm looking for other options before I simply try a new RCMP.

    -Concealment is paramount.
    -Speed is paramount.
    -I like the idea of reverse cant pouches, but I'm in no way married to it.
    -Kydex, leather, whatever.

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm skinny (5'11" 145lbs) and really like the Kytex Gear mag carrier, and the Custom Carry Concepts "BMC" (basic mag carrier). I find the Kytex conceals better but the BMC is faster.

    I'm 5' 11" and 165-170 and the RCS single mag pouch (kydex) is the most concealable mag carrier I've used.

    Also, where are you guys wearing the pouch? 11:00, 9:00, somewhere in between?

    I run a Fricke horizontal mag carrier at 11 o'clock.

    Retention is adjustable. No problems in matches or carry.

    Nope bullets up.

    I have a guy making me a lower profile horizontal in leather, should be here next week.
