Frequently Asked Questions

What magazines fit in this pouch?

This pouch fits most standard 5.56 NATO magazines including PMAGs and USGI magazines. The Kydex inserts accommodate standard magazine dimensions.

Does this pouch require additional mounting hardware?

WTFix attachment straps or KYWI belt loops must be ordered separately for belt mounting. MOLLE mounting uses the integrated PALS webbing.

How does the KYWI retention system work?

The KYWI system uses precision Kydex inserts that create a wedge fit around your magazines. This provides secure retention without bungee cords while allowing smooth magazine extraction.

What is the difference between regular and shorty KYWI pouches?

The Shorty version has a reduced height profile at approximately 3.5 inches, making it ideal for low-profile loadouts where space is limited.

How do I maintain the Kydex inserts?

Clean the Kydex inserts with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that could damage the material or affect retention properties.
