Dumb MOLLE attachment question
I just ordered a High Speed Gear Triple Taco mag holder that uses MOLLE. How do/can I attach it to a Wilderness type belt? Im sure it’s stupid simple, I’ve just never used it. Thanks all

What is a "wilderness" type belt?

If you run a MALICE clip up behind all the MOLLE rows and then down over the first two and behind the rest it makes a pretty reasonable beltloop.

I assume he means a belt like a "Wilderness Instructor" brand belt, which were one of the first popular super stiff wide nylon belts people started using as gun belts.

Yes, maladat...that’s the belt I’ve got.

Well you mount them on the belt but they will be super loose. Here is a video showing one way.



There are molle mount devices for under belts. Put on under belt, attach molle pouches (I think I have some that are snapped on to the under belt for quick on and off without taking the belt off).

MOLLE pouches aren't supposed to be attached to a rigger belt. You CAN, but, it'll be very loose. There's a few stop-gap solutions but, best to get the right gear the first time around.

Are these not what I need?

I haven't actually tried them, but Esstac is a fantastic company and this looks like it may the best solution for attaching MOLLE to a normal belt.

MOLLE is intended to be attached to MOLLE by weaving a "stick" or clips (like MALICE clips).

That said, what you want to go from MOLLE to a belt is something like these ESSTAC clips:

And I back up my attachment method with small flex ties.

I use the Raven Concealment Moduloader to attach my HSGI Taco pouches to a Wilderness instructor belt. This setup works perfectly but unfortunately it looks like the product is no longer available. If you find something similar it will likely work very well.

Maladat hit the nail on the head. ESSTAC makes two sizes of belt loops that are specifically designed to go on moles pouches directly to belts. Way better than trying to make malice clips work or something else.
