500fan Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I am very new to IPSC and would like some info on a mag holder made. They are not making them any more and was wondering if anyone had a couple to sell? They are called the Aluminator? These mag holders look great. Does anyone else make something comparable? Thanks for answering the Newbi Q&A> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemo Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Click HERE for the Aluminator website. They are going out of business. But WHY? There are other magpouches out there that I'm sure will fill your needs. Use the force... I mean the forum seach function and you'll get a lot of very useful info. Welcome to the forum and the sport!

JFlowers Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Also, if you are shooting an M&P in PRODUCTION Division, then mag pouch placement and the number of magazines required might make the Aluminator less than the optimal choice. That said, the website says they have the magholders in stock so you can order directly from the manufacturer until October 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzygä Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 CR-speed makes good mag holder. Welcome to the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris iliff Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 My guess is the "Aluninator" didn't cut the mustard. Find out by looking around at a match or posting here on the Forum as to the types of products for our sport. It will probably save you money in the long run and headaches in the short. Welcome to the sport, have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcarter Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 From one M&P shooter to another....I would go with CR Speed or the new Double Alpha pouches or one of the Safariland or Bladetech pouches. What ever you decide to get you need to practice with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calmwater Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Welcome to the forum 500 fan. The MP is a pretty slick pistol. Comp-tac makes good stuff too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500fan Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks everyone for the "Welcome" I do appreciate it and am looking forward to learning with all of eveyones knowledge. This is going to be a great website. Thanks to all and see you around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500fan Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Looked at their website and could not find a phone number or a e-mail address? I do see they will end their web site in October of 2009. Thanks. On another note, I will be shooting production. I do realize you cannot carry your mags ahead of your hip bone. What has anyone had good luck with? I currently have a leather two mag holder by Bianchi. I just think it is too deep and will hinder trying fast reloads. It works messing around at the shooting range but you know. I just ordered a Pact timmer III and am looking forward to finding out real times of drawing and shooting. Again thanks for all of your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McAllyn Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I'm using two BladeTech doubles with Tek-Lok for my Production rig. They are adjustable, so I can use them for my M&P mags, XD's, and Beretta's. They are much faster than I am, meaning, they will release the mags a whole lot quicker than I can grab for them.

saibot Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I use the Bladetech M&P holster and double mag holder on a CR Speed belt. It works great for my FS9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Knight Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I use the Blade-tech injection molded for the M&P as well as the CR speed pouches. I had to use the S_I insert with a washer on the back side of the insert to make the M&P mags fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raz-0 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I have a blade tech folded kydex (not the injection molded, but that one works fine. i was just an early adopter of the M&P), and a pair of uncle mikes double pouches. They aren't great, but they are cheap and work. I'd like to replace them, but haven't found anything really compelling that wasn't expensive. The ghost magazine pouches with the funky plastic leaf spring deal seemed to have good retention and were pretty slick on the draw though. They fit a wide variety of mags, but not everything. The CR-speeds have the benefit of being able to be use with lots of different mags depending on inserts and adjustment, but they are kind of bulky.
