High Speed Gear Hsgi Gen 2 Ext Pistol/Smg Taco Coy

The High Speed Gear Gen 2 Extended Pistol/SMG TACO is a purpose-built magazine carrier that handles whatever you throw at it—long pistol mags, SMG rounds, flashlights, batons, or other similarly sized gear. It's the refined follow-up to the original, engineered to be lighter and more efficient without sacrificing the retention and durability you need in the field, whether you're running a duty rig, tactical load-out, or patrol setup.

Built from laser-cut nylon laminate wrapping a woven thermoplastic core, the Gen 2 TACO cuts weight by roughly 20% compared to its predecessor—a meaningful reduction when every ounce counts on a long day. The contoured molded sides are streamlined with integrated channels that manage shock cord tails, so your retention stays adjusted and nothing flops around. That shock cord is adjustable, letting you dial in how snug you want your mag or gear held.

Mounting flexibility is built in: 1/2-inch MOLLE spacing across the back lets you attach to any MOLLE panel, chest rig, or plate carrier. Prefer a belt mount? Included HSG clips handle that too. The open-top design keeps access fast, and if you want to cover it up later, the carrier is compatible with HSG OTR cover accessories for a fully enclosed option.
