Product Description


Don't Like bungee topped magazine pouches or Velcro flaps? Prefer an open topped pouch for rapid magazine changes? Then these new user-installed Kydex upgrades for the HSGI Wasatch and Wesatch rigs are for you.


The Esstac KYWI (Kydex Wedge Insert) allows you to have the option of swapping out all your existing bungee retention inserts with a quick open topped friction retention design, or swap out just a few for quicker access while leaving the rest of the mags with the added security of the bungee topped inserts or velcro Closure. Magazines in the Kydex have enough compression against them to hold the magazines in place even when the pouch is upside down yet with a quick pull on the magazine they release for speedy deployment.


The spring loaded nature of these Kydex inserts keep the mouth of the Magazine pocket fully open for ease of magazine reinsertion yet hold the mags tight under compression. Once the front magazine is removed the Rear Magazine will "Lean" Forward allowing for a better grip, the rear magazine has an optional elastic keeper to give greater retention when the front magazine is removed.


They are compatible with Pmags, USGI, Orilite, Thermold and Lancer magazines as well as most other 5.56 AR-15/M4/M16 type magazines. Aluminum and steel magazines may need sharp edges chamfered to alleviate excessive wear to the Kydex.
