French FAMAS Magazine Pouch

These pouches are great, but sadly you won’t get the V1 pouches as shown in the listing. You will get V3 pouches, at least that’s what me and my other friends received. There are 3 types of famas pouches made in the F1 style and I needed the V1 or V2 pouches for my reenactment group, which I specifically asked for and supplied a picture of, yet did not receive. These are quality pouches but if you want the V1s you most likely will not get them.

I got a couple on sale, not planning to use as a mag pouch, but I thought it would be useful to carry other items. Well made and easy to carry in a motorcycle saddlebag or on a belt and has rings to clip on a pack. Another great product fro KS.

Got two of these to try for my 20 round aluminum AR-15 mags, and if I use spacers on the bottom to make the tops protrude a bit, these will fit the bill nicely. The first of two is a different construction with lighter-weight material and is very tight with the AR mags inserted, so much so that if there isn't any of the base to grab onto, it's going to stay there until I empty the back two cells first.
The other pouch was of identical to construction to the image on the site and fits the AR mags a little more loosely, which is perfect. The metal rings on each pouch had active corrosion that I'll have to take care of sooner or later, and each appears to have seen a little use. All in all, great stand-in pouches for my 20 round GI AR-15 mags that sit around otherwise.

I bought one of these when they were still being sold as m1 carbine mag pouches. Excellent condition, If they were ever issued they were well taken care of. They are an odd size, as is they are not quite right for any magazine that I’ve tried. They work ok as is; you might want to try using something as a space filler if you want to use these for m1 carbine mags.
