Our mag pouches are over-the-belt clip-on design. They are molded for a specific belt-size for maximum stability. Keeping the beast fed is always a good idea. Belt clip pouches are made for bullet forward, primer to the rear carry on your support hand side. This is considered the proper method in all accredited schools I have ever been to. If you wish to have them facing to the rear and you are right handed, for instance, order one for "Right side carry". All our mag pouches are IDPA compliant.
