High Speed Gear is now shipping the second generation TACO X2R magazine pouch meant for use with magazines for AR-10-pattern rifles.
Even though the 7.62 NATO/.308 Win. rifle cartridge ceased being the primary rifle cartridge of the free world since the sunset of the Cold War, modern Western militaries still rely on rifle platforms built around this cartridge or others similar to it along their same dimensions, such as the 6.5 Creedmoor round. As a result, High Speed Gear made the decision to keep creating magazine pouches to fulfill the demand for current AR-10 pattern magazines.
HSGI Gen2 AR10 X2R TACO Pouch Features
- Designed for AR-10 style magazines: Engineered with a larger fabric bracket and small geometry tweaks to ensure a perfect fit for large-bodied magazines.
- Enhanced retention: Delivers the same versatile retention as the original X2R TACO, ensuring magazines are held securely in place.
- Lightweight design: Constructed from laser-cut nylon laminate and woven thermoplastic, making it up to 20 percent lighter than the original TACO pouch.
- Streamlined profile: Features updated molded sides that are more compact, with channels designed to manage shock cord tails more efficiently.
- Modular mounting system: Equipped with .5-inch MOLLE, it can be mounted on both MOLLE platforms and belts and includes two HSG clips for convenience.
- Retention options: Compatible with multiple over-the-top retention options for additional security.
- Berry compliant: The Gen2 AR-10 TACO X2R is made in the United States and is Berry Compliant.
