High Speed Gear Double Decker Polymer TACO Pouch: The Ultimate Universal Magazine and Gear Retention Solution

Are you a tactical professional, a competitive shooter, or simply someone who demands reliable, versatile gear for your outdoor and self-defense needs? When it comes to securing critical equipment like magazines, flashlights, or multi-tools, compromise isn't an option. The High Speed Gear (HSGI) Double Decker Polymer TACO Pouch (Model: 16DD00CB) in Coyote Brown offers an unparalleled combination of adaptability, durability, and rapid accessibility, making it an indispensable addition to any loadout.

This advanced universal retention system solves the long-standing problem of needing multiple pouches for different types of magazines or gear. Whether you're navigating a demanding training scenario, engaging in a fast-paced competition, or preparing for an unpredictable situation, the HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO ensures your vital supplies are always secure yet instantly retrievable.

What Makes the HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO an Essential Piece of Kit?

The ingenuity of the High Speed Gear TACO line lies in its patented design, which utilizes a unique combination of injection-molded polymer sides, sturdy nylon webbing, and adjustable shock cord. This creates a highly adaptable retention system that can securely hold a vast array of items, unlike traditional pouches that are often caliber-specific.

Unrivaled Versatility and Adaptability

One of the most frequent questions gear users ask is, "Can this pouch hold different sizes of magazines?" The HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO answers with a resounding "yes." This pouch is engineered to accommodate an incredibly broad spectrum of items, making it one of the most flexible options available on the market.

• Rifle Magazine Compatibility: Designed to securely hold most rifle magazines, including AR-15 (5.56x45mm/.223), AK-47 (7.62x39mm), AR-10 (7.62x51mm/.308), SR25, M14, and similar platforms. This eliminates the need for separate pouches for each rifle system you might operate.
• Pistol Magazine/Tool Compatibility: The "double decker" design means a smaller, integrated pouch sits in front of the rifle magazine pouch. This front pouch is perfectly sized for nearly all pistol magazines—from single-stack 1911 mags to double-stack Glock or M&P magazines. Beyond magazines, this section is also ideal for tactical flashlights, multi-tools, collapsible batons, or even small medical items like tourniquets.
• Beyond Magazines: The adaptable nature of the TACO means it can also reliably hold items such as:
  • Handheld radios (e.g., Baofeng UV-5R)
  • Folding knives
  • Small fixed-blade knives
  • GPS devices
  • Signal flares
  • Certain types of less-lethal munitions

This unparalleled versatility simplifies your gear setup, reduces the number of specialized pouches you need to purchase, and allows for rapid reconfigurations based on your mission or activity.

Exceptional Durability for Demanding Environments

When you're out in the field, whether on duty, at the range, or exploring rugged terrain, your gear needs to withstand abuse. The HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO is built to last, providing consistent performance in harsh conditions.

• Robust Polymer Construction: The core of the pouch is constructed from a high-strength injection-molded polymer. This material is inherently resistant to impacts, abrasions, UV degradation, and extreme temperatures, ensuring the pouch maintains its structural integrity over time.
• Reinforced Nylon Webbing: Strategically placed nylon webbing provides additional strength and rigidity, particularly at stress points. This combination of polymer and nylon creates a lightweight yet incredibly tough platform.
• Heavy-Duty Shock Cord: The adjustable retention system relies on durable shock cord, which retains its elasticity and strength even after extensive use and exposure to the elements. This ensures consistent tension and reliable retention for your items.
• Coyote Brown Finish: The Coyote Brown color is not just aesthetically pleasing but also a practical choice for tactical environments, offering excellent camouflage in arid, desert, and many woodland settings. This color is widely adopted by military and law enforcement agencies.

Rapid Access and Secure Retention

How do you ensure your magazines stay put during strenuous activity but are still quick to draw when seconds count? The High Speed Gear TACO's design masterfully balances these two critical requirements.

• Positive Retention System: The unique polymer and shock cord system applies pressure from all sides, creating a snug fit for whatever item is inserted. This prevents magazines from falling out during running, jumping, or maneuvering, even when inverted.
• Smooth, Friction-Free Draw: Despite the secure retention, the open-top design and the smooth polymer interior allow for an incredibly fast and unobstructed draw. There's no flap, buckle, or bungee to fumble with—just a quick, clean pull.
• One-Handed Reinsertion: The semi-rigid nature of the polymer frame allows for easier one-handed reinsertion of magazines or tools, a significant advantage in tactical situations or during reloads under pressure. This feature is often highlighted by users as a major benefit over softer, purely fabric-based pouches.

Who Benefits Most from the HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO?

This pouch isn't just for one type of user; its design caters to a diverse range of individuals who prioritize efficiency and reliability in their gear.

• Law Enforcement Officers: For patrol officers, SWAT teams, and special units, having reliable access to rifle and pistol magazines is paramount. The TACO's universal fit means a single pouch type can be standardized across different weapon systems, simplifying logistics and training. Its secure retention is crucial during dynamic movements and altercations.
• Military Personnel: Soldiers, Marines, airmen, and sailors in combat or training environments require gear that can withstand the harshest conditions while providing instant access to ammunition. The HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO is battle-proven and trusted by professionals worldwide for its durability and performance.
• Competitive Shooters (3-Gun, USPSA, IPSC): Speed and consistency are key in shooting sports. The rapid draw and easy reinsertion capabilities of the TACO system give competitors a decisive edge, allowing for faster reloads and better stage times. Its adaptability means one set of pouches can be used across multiple firearm configurations.
• Prepared Citizens and Home Defense: For those who maintain a personal defense capability, the HSGI TACO provides a robust and reliable way to organize and deploy spare ammunition or essential tools, whether on a chest rig, plate carrier, or battle belt.
• Hunters and Outdoor Enthusiasts: While not traditionally "tactical," hunters or serious outdoorsmen who carry spare rifle ammunition, a multi-tool, or a powerful flashlight can benefit from the secure, accessible retention the TACO offers, preventing loss in rugged terrain.

How to Integrate the HSGI Double Decker Polymer TACO into Your Loadout

The High Speed Gear Double Decker Polymer TACO (Model: 16DD00CB) is designed for seamless integration with standard MOLLE/PALS webbing, which is found on virtually all modern tactical vests, plate carriers, chest rigs, and battle belts.

• MOLLE/PALS Compatibility: Each pouch comes complete with HSGI Universal Clips, making attachment straightforward and secure. Simply weave the clips through the MOLLE channels on your gear and the corresponding loops on the back of the TACO pouch. This system provides a very stable platform, minimizing wobble or shifting during movement.
• Optimal Placement:
  • On a Plate Carrier: Typically mounted on the front or sides, allowing for rapid reloads from a standing or kneeling position.
  • On a Battle Belt/Duty Belt: Ideal for primary and secondary pistol magazine access, or for carrying a spare rifle magazine easily accessible on your hip.
  • On a Chest Rig: Provides excellent front-line access to all your essential magazines and tools.
• Maximizing Space: The compact footprint of the Double Decker TACO allows for efficient use of real estate on your gear. Its stacking design means you get two retention points (one rifle, one pistol/tool) in the space of one traditional rifle mag pouch.
