Frequently Asked Questions
What magazines will fit in the HSGI Gen 2 Extended Pistol SMG TACO Pouch?
The Gen 2 Extended Pistol SMG TACO is designed to accommodate long pistol magazines and SMG magazines, including popular options like MP5 magazines, CZ Scorpion magazines, and extended double-stack pistol magazines. Its adjustable shock-cord retention and contoured sides can also secure similarly dimensioned items such as tactical flashlights and collapsible batons, making it one of the most versatile single-cell pouches on the market.
How does the Gen 2 TACO differ from the original Extended Pistol TACO?
The Gen 2 version is sleeker, lighter, and more refined than its predecessor. The primary upgrade is the construction method — laser-cut nylon laminate wrapped over a woven thermoplastic core — which reduces overall weight by approximately 20% compared to the original. The Gen 2 also features a cleaner profile and retains full compatibility with MOLLE and belt mounting systems, as well as the optional HSG OTR Cover accessory for added versatility.
Can I mount this pouch on a belt as well as a plate carrier?
Yes. The back panel of the Gen 2 Extended Pistol SMG TACO features ½-inch interval MOLLE webbing that supports both standard MOLLE/PALS attachment on plate carriers and vests, as well as direct belt mounting using compatible belt adapters. This dual-mount flexibility makes it an excellent choice whether you're building out a full plate carrier loadout or a minimalist war belt setup.
