Condor Mag carrier: "Kangaroo Option" by Nutnfancy

[@specopsteam]

Thank you for all videos. As a law enforcement officer I get so sick of coming on here to see a good review of a product and getting a bunch of little kids playing airsoft. I appreciate having a real operator giving a real review.

[@masterkeep]

Thanks for the review. I've been out for 10 years now and I never really did a lot with the extra gear in the units I was with. Thanks for keeping me up on the best stuff.

[@BringerOfD]

happy to say, the excess webbing no longer exists. I just ordered a condor vest and some pounches. everything is snug, real snug.

[@rccarnovice]

thanks nutnfancy for the last two condor reviews - for folks on a tight budget it is nice to see you find something that is economical yet functional enough to get your seal of approval....keep up the good work.

[@nutnfancy]

@hanjoni Hey brother...I had tried that and probably wouldn't. I like those straps nice and straight. Might trace that back to kindergarden when I felt like I had to color within the lines. Thanks for watching!

[@mdlagreca]

I had a similar problem on a pistol mag pouch I got from Condor. I know it was the only one I'd be using on my vest, so I just sewed it straight to the vest! Works great now.

[@DERSchindler]

If there is a award for tactical sewing, you will get it nutnfancy! love your videos

[@TheWoollyMammoth]

Cheaper than dirt is NOT awesome!

[@Ster098]

I'm an AC-130 pilot and I think this is a very good channel. One of the guys on my ground squad watches you and he really thinks that you're great. I really like this channel and I took his advice and I'm pretty impressed. - John McDonald of the United States of America Military Forces.

[@nutnfancy]

@GlockFCS Great to hear and thanks: so chalk up another POSITIVE experience with CTD. Even w/o rifle mags in I found the pistol pouches worked great.

[@NPSurvival]

Sewing is a great skill to know! Thanks for the review Nutn!

[@nutnfancy]

@scandapoodle Oh yeah, they do make the HSGI Double Decker "TACO" Magazine Pouch (pistol mag piggybacking on the mag pouch) but it only comes in singles (which is less size efficient width-wise) and then the cost goes up to FOUR TIMES as much.

[@nutnfancy]

@chavvspeeg13 Thanks for watching John! Glad to have you onboard. -- Veri

[@imanvaez6218]

Thanks for this video. I bought their AK mag kangaroo. It works perfect. They have fixed the straps so it doesn't have any extra material.

[@nutnfancy]

@912patriotJW Hey many did you even watch the video? Quality and any downsides are cleary explained; you are being myopic.

[@nutnfancy]

@Trigunnie45 Correct again gunnie: moving the snaps was considered and it's just way too much work and expense. Mod shown is the best option and it takes 10 min for a 3 pouch setup. Other downsides: hard to find black/tan snaps and straps having been cut will now have to be melted (more work, less finished). I've done lots of snap and sewing work in my days. Easiest fix shown.

[@natewesselink]

Just bought one this month and it doesn't have much of any excess length in the straps. Have it on a condor battle belt and its rock solid.

[@ndawgtkd]

Yes, I have been tactical showing. You crack me up with some of your terms man, great video.

[@ArmedVegan]

Definitely like the looks of it when I first saw. Will pick one up. Glad I took a sewing class in middle school, and now I know I can use it for tactical operations =D . Going to pick it up from PFIdude when the Condor MPC Coyote tan gets back in stock. Thanks for posting!

[@Bill11812]

The Army Surplus store in my town sells these as well as other Condor stuff and usually cheaper than CTD. I just picked up one of their shotgun scabbards and stuffed my Ruger 10/22 in it. I also bought the double kangaroo pouch for my chest rig. Good stuff for the price.

[@johnreese4485]

If you weave the molle strap though the molle webbing on the vest then though the molle webbing on the back of the pouch it will fix the extra material.

[@berger0424]

These also come in single and double mags. Nutn, heres a tip to deal with the elastic and not being able to put the mag back in easily: i have same pouch and I don't use the elastic, I have magpuls on my mags and I use a dump pouch for the empty mags. so I have the elastic to the side, and the mags don't go anywhere, they are very secure. However if you cut the elastic, and even without the magpuls it should still be able to be used quickly and put back quickly. I've tested it, it works.

[@nutnfancy]

@mceedip Roger that, thanks for the suggestion. Downsides to " Esstac M4 Triple Wedge Mag Pouch:" it costs 40% more and completely lacks the integrated pistol mag pouches (so in reality it's about 200% more). I like its adjustable depth on the rifle mags but the extra elastic adds weight. If cost is not important then the number of options skyrockets...just like all things in life right?

[@Trigunnie45]

@J0uzze I'm just replying to the comment about the molle straps. "you complained about the molle straps being too loose" I don't remember if it was in this video or another, but Nutn stated that with Condor gear, the spacing and tightness of the molle is somwhat random. Sometimes it's loose and widely spaced, sometimes it's tight and evenly spaced. Condor hasn't quite got the"even"memo yet. But other than that, it is pretty good gear for the money.(esp since you get lisenced Multicam) Cheers

[@vancevillalobos3340]

The excess of the strap on the back of the mag pouch and I think all of Condor's gear is made so that you can weave the strap in and out of the accessory. Condor's accessories are made with molle gear on them so that you can get an extremely tight/ medium/ or loose fit on your gear. I have several condor accessory pouches on my Condor MCR6 chest rig that I use at work. (I'm a LEO) I have no problems at all in the feild running around or shooting at quals.

[@Royisme]

I just put an order for one of these in today... I hope they have fixed the webbing issue, but if not I'll do a Nutn fix on it. I'll update when it arrives on how that works out in my example. Edit: I just got it in, wove it into my MOPC that Nutn reviewed, and it fits nice and tight!

[@Royisme]

+nutnfancy Could you share your info on the thread you used? I found some issues with mine that need to be addressed. Thanks!

[@NPSurvival]

Yay, another Nutnfancy video!!!!

[@muddcnt7138]

just so everyone knows, condor gear as well as pantac gear and many other brands are sold extensively on airsoft websites throughout america. everything on that plate carrier can be found at Airsoft atlanta or airsoftgi or evike.

[@Trigunnie45]

@nutnfancy Well thank you Nutn, for making time to respond to my comment. I think it would be useful to all the "überman" men in here should learn "tactical" sewing. It's a skill that would come very handy in time for all sorts of fatal gear busts. Thats why our military services teach sewing. At least they did in my grandad's day, and my mum's too. Don't know if they still do though. Well anyhow, keep up the good work, and have fun. Cheers. =]

[@James_Haskin]

Not above sewing. What a bad ass. You're a great role model nutnfancy :D

[@nutnfancy]

@912patriotJW Yes you can do that however it costs more money...my sewing keeps the pouch low cost man.

[@MilkTeaLover100]

I fold some paper towels and stuff it in the pouch so he mags stick out more and I can grab the mags out easily. It helps me.

[@scottydoesntno]

They carry this mag pouch in the single and double versions at airsoftgi. They don't have the tripple pouch version but they do have alot of condor gear there (they sell it under the name OE Tech)

[@ttown32179]

Just got the whole Condor set up from CTD & Serpa CQC holster from US "C". Looking foward to it & runing the Sig 1911 I refered to in your 1911 POU vid comments. Not cool, CTD Multi Cam markup. With the cup 1/2 full I'll have the time to get the rig dialed in after the CTD return is done (BTW the UTG Cross Draw Vest sucked) because I have 3 to 6 weeks till my permit is ammended in the People's Republis of NY. Thanks for all the knowledgeable & impartial advice Nutn its appreciated in Albany!

[@theothertoolbox]

Oh, I didn't have to sew the straps...it fits VERY securely to my eagle SPC. Also a great tip from Nutn' on tightening molle gear.

[@ttown32179]

Hi, swapped out the UTG cross draw set up for a Condor very similar set up with my 1911. Although its a bit heavier the supportiveness in uncomparible. My question is this do you know if there is a kangaroo pouch set up avaible for a M1A like this so I just swap it the pouch out? I looked in CTD & Brownells with no luck. Many thanks for the great reviews & GREAT (high value & durability) product highlights & the not so good ones to. Look foward to a reply.

[@gwh21375]

@Trigunnie45 I was thinking along the lines of actually replacing the snap. I would be cutting the excees strap off anyhow so the old snap would be gone. Putting snaps on takes only a few seconds. I payed $3 for a 10 pack & $3 for the punch...used the snaps on a few project...they are easy and handy.

[@nutnfancy]

@Sounds4theInfowar Good idea...will be a quick review too!

[@Bill11812]

@w55ks I love the condor shotgun scabbard. I have my 10/22 in it and it fits great. Good stitching, lots of webbing, and very well padded. The shoulder sling is a good extra as well as the retention strap. Overall a great product and if you were watching CTD had the black ones on sale for $9,99 this past weekend until noon on Monday.

[@ironhealzer]

Hey Nutn ? Will the Kangaroo pouch fit a molle holster behind it? Will it hold 1.5 oz mace cans in the pistol pouchs also could a guy fit a department issue radio in one of the AR mag pouches? I've had my eye on these for my Interceptor and it seems as a viable option I just can't decide if I want to go for the single double or triple shingle pouch!

[@adavisamity442]

Nice Video! Short and simple, I've got one on its way in the mail now.

[@cmzangetsu1993]

haha, Now i remember how i got hooked to this channel. I was looking for a video on how to weave molle and i guess thats what got me interested.

[@nutnfancy]

@Trigunnie45 Good reply Trigunnie, thanks!

[@ETASK1]

just bought 2 of these..in tan..cant wait 2 get em

[@imanvaez6218]

There are two versions, one for AK and one for AR. The AK version has wider opening and has a Velcro flap cover, which is removable.

[@hanjoni]

Nice solution (sewing job) on the loose fitting mag pouches. Just an idea.... what about giving the strap a twist or two before attaching to vest? I've done this before with other things but not this system. Just an idea. Great vid. All your vids.

[@gwh21375]

Seems like moving the snap might be a simpler fix than "tactical sewing." Although the sewing thing is super handy at times, I'm sure! And a better fix in the long run because by sewing you eliminate that 1.5" length of single layer strap. Great vid!

[@EDit23452]

about your problem on the elastic straps getting in the way of mag insertion- im an airsofter and i run magpuls on my M4 mags so i was like "hmmm..... these elastics get in the way!" so i just took them off. i had no problems with the mags coming out, and i am constantly springting, crouching, and strait up hitting the ground

[@Wolf-427]

Glad to see a new Video. Hi Veri!

[@NyxNyte]

@HatrXx78 Curious as well how 30 rnd AK mags fit, I'm thinking the bungee strap might not have good retention since the bottom of the mag is more angled?

[@nutnfancy]

@SuperSneakySniper Just pitch them then and you can play pick-up after the shoot. I just deal with the rattle.

[@nutnfancy]

@scandapoodle Don't forget I'm a gear reviewer and "buying 10 different sets" is the result of that job...for you. However I do like the idea of HSGI Taco pouches and may test them later and their multi-functionality is real. But keep it real: The TACO pouches are also about TRIPLE the cost of these and they have no pistol mag pouches. These still rock.

[@IVSpod]

Will the mag pouches fit AK mags or no? Sorry if I missed it in the video or someone has asked already.

[@I..cast..fireball]

PLEEEASSEEE to a review on the new surefire 60round mags, it looks like they would fit in double mag pouches, but only one mag to deal with. are they any good?

[@krakow784]

Does the MOPC have a lot of MOLLE realstate? Also in terms of overheating after using this with a camlepak, and say running 12 m4 Pmags on this, will u overheat quickly?

[@Doomjunkie]

What kind of sewing machine do you use? I have a Brother 8060. It is not nearly as strong as I need it to be. What is your sewing machine recommendation for a fellow tactical sewer? I made my own vest, pouched, and insulated hydration system, dump pouch included. Can you show us some machines?

[@PlanetRibooted]

Good thing Whiskey6 has a sowing machine and I know how to use it well! Was considering HSGI, but Condor fits my price point.

[@bigbluemsp]

Nutn, My buddy sells Condor and he told them after seeing your video and hearing me gripe about it.. They said they are looking into it as we speak and more then likely from what he said they will make sure that it's rectified in the next batches... Condor is also aware of your videos as well so maybe they'll jump on board! Also if you haven't looked into their rifle cases you should. I got one and MAN it's nice!! Comparable to my Tac-Force case for my AR but with pouches.

[@TheDishD]

yet again great reveiw/vid Nutn', pros and cons of the kit, keeping ti real, take care bro.

[@xxReaverXXCerberusxx]

Say, can those kangaroo mag pouches hold AK mags?

[@shizz152]

nice vids nutnfancy keep up the great work very much appreciated

[@Rescue913]

Will this work for AK 30 round mags?

[@HatrXx78]

Nutn, does Condor offer these in an AK mag specification? I don't need this for my AR I run a 5.11 tac-vest with 5.11 mag pouchec which are PERFECT. Too bad 5.11 doesn't offer an AK option for when I am feeling fruity and switch out to my AKs. haha

[@PAairsofter]

Do you think Coyote Brown mixed well with Multicam?

[@nutnfancy]

@smcombs100 Mini-14 Tactical or KelTec SU-16, any version.

[@kkirT]

How come I can't get these to my subscription box any more?

[@tastyg]

Tried to put 30rd tapco 7.62 mags in this morning. Was not close to fitting. Maybe because they were the waffle kind, but still no luck.

[@EchoOfLohengrin]

Would these be recommended for use on just a belt?

[@nutnfancy]

Thanks Trigunnie45, right again, & totally agreed. Some guys get their feelings hurt when I call them on their accusations (like calling into question my integrity for reviewing items from CS and Condor). If you throw down here be ready to get some back I say. Buying USA rocks if you can (quality in many tac nylon brands is outstanding) and will afford it. But the "that's-not-made-in-America-and- therefore-it-sucks" mentality doesn't sit well with me & TNPrs. That's b. it's a usually a lie.

[@GodOfWar5341]

Hey Nutn you should try the Emags there thiner then the pmags and can be doubled stacked. But I have so mag pouches and my pouches don't have the extra material and the cord is real tight.

[@Trigunnie45]

@gwh21375 Well moving the snap would be impractical. Snaps are stamped into both sides of the fabric with a snap punch, kinda like rivits. Anyone who does a lot of sewing and makes their own clothes knows what I mean. Once the snaps are "snapped" into place, they cannot be "unsnapped" and moved. Ergo, sewing the exess is really the only option short of making your own molle straps. Cheers.

[@1391996]

hey Nutn..whats that bracelet you got on?

[@nutnfancy]

And with that...down it came. Thanks for having an eagle eye! -- Veri

[@Codemonkey3]

You should do those Magpul Puller tabs in a review. You mentioned how you had trouble drawing your mags because of your vest configuration changing, you should try them, it makes it faster to recharge a weapon.

[@SpartacusColo]

I see the footage of Nutn using this mag pouch with the SGL-31(?). How did they work with the AK-74-style magazine? Any hangups or smooth as silk? Thanks!!

[@Pat5725]

Thank you for the review, bought the Vest and Condor Kangaroo mag pouch. Among other goodies :)

[@smcombs100]

hey nutnfancy, what would you say a good first rifle would be? like max $1000.

[@piehi2]

@blah596 i think what your talking about is when people shoot cast bullet out of the gun its because of the type of barrel or something but they make after market barrel (lonewolf) that you can shot cast bullets out of! but as long as you shot jacketed bullets out of it youll be fine!! glocks are great!!!

[@iluvmym4]

I have the 5.11 m4 mag pouches the bungi cords are sooooo damb tight I've wanted to cut them off! Any ideas? I'm looking for a good triple m4 mag pouches for my 5.11 vest! I'm hoping I can fit 3 mag pouches on each side but dont know if in fact they will fit? Just cant keep waisting cash on products that dont work well! Sucks! The 5.11 LBE vest is bad ass!

[@WLPKalenov]

@livinglegend1986 I've used the conventional condor 3 mag pouches (without the Pistol Mag pouch on the front) and its identical to this, they fit but its a bit tight; after the elastic is worn in its alright but I couldn't recommend it.

[@tacticaltrigger]

I would love to see a review on AR15 mags. I've been told Pmags are the best and I've been told Pmags are the worst (from a former US Army Soldier, who said the mags would become brittle and break when he used them in Iraq). So I'd like to hear your opinion on it. I'm building an AR right now and I'm debating which mags to get.

[@warriormusashi]

@Trigunnie45 I totally agree. Like Nutn says it all comes down to philosophy of use

[@Kylef7735]

@lowcostcleaners He was an air force pilot up to a few months ago, he retired, now hes got another job thats a LEO type job that he doesnt talk about much.

[@gunslinger1911a1]

Good review, but I'm with most here. Cheaper than Dirt has boned me more than once. First time was with a Vltor Emod stock which after I ordered and they guaranteed it. Told me they shipped it. I waited, and about Two weeks later after contacting them I was told it was on it's way. Another two weeks again told it's on it's way. Third time I was told they were out of stock. I really can't accept that. As well as something very similar happened to me when I ordered a couple Pmags. good job nutn.

[@zucine]

Question about pistol holsters. Is there anything bad about having a vertical holster on the side of a tactical vest opposite your shooting hand (i.e. I'm right handed put it on left side.)

[@paulthorla9569]

Could you test the HSGI "Taco" MAG pouch (double rifle/single pistol)?I heard they fit AR, AK, and 308 mags. They stretch wide and depth. Pretty cool.

[@360chris88]

good video nutn and veri keep up the great work

[@WhittakerOutdoors]

Did Condor ever fix the issue of having too much material on the molle webbing?

[@DownRangeReviews]

Yes, they have I can second that (bought from a buddy on amazon) even if they hadn't tho, "Tactical Sewing" (love the term, hope you don't mind if I use it in my vid's brother) would have been fine by be, so long as it holds up thru my carbine and pistol courses, last thing anyone of us want is something to fail and make us look bad/not be able to keep up with your team "Par the Course" Thanks for the Update Markov, and I Second the Update that they have "Fixed" the Slack! OohRahh!

[@42cujo]

great review nutnfancy thanks 4 the info dude !

[@usmccapdevil]

Digging the recent reviews

[@mysss29]

Oh and CTD re-names Condor gear to market it (I've recently been looking at their "mini T&T" pouch, which is Condor's "Sidekick" pouch).

[@lowcostcleaners]

hey nutfancy what line of work do u do if dont mine me asking? and ur vid's r Great keep them up

[@nutnfancy]

@scandapoodle Roger that dude, thanks for the clarification. I want to test the Taco sometime.

[@beast9870bg]

what plate carrier is that?

[@noquie1]

For anyone to answer... Where can I find the American flag on his vest? For my range bag...Thank you and GB

[@tjlures]

what would be a good plate carrier or exsorries that would allow me to run atleast 6-8 mags

[@af22raptor23503]

Great Review! OPSGEAR carries the triple for 21.99

[@Codemonkey3]

@frailcolin Oh, and those pouches are sold a lot places, especially Airsoft websites.

[@jhloewe]

only nutn can make sewing sound cool...lol TACTICAL SEWING...I'M IN nice vid!
