ARES-V

ARES-V Single Magazine Pouch (Open Top, Vertical) – GRIDLOK

The ARES-V Single Magazine Pouch is a streamlined, open-top AR magazine carrier designed for fast access, secure retention, and modular loadout integration. Built using 100% precision laser-cut construction and equipped with the GRIDLOK™ attachment system, this pouch provides a modern, low-profile alternative to traditional MOLLE magazine pouches while maintaining full durability for duty and field use.

Designed to carry one 30-round 5.56 NATO magazine, the ARES-V supports both metal USGI-style magazines and polymer magazines, making it compatible with a wide range of AR-15/M4 platforms. Its vertical orientation provides a classic, efficient draw angle suitable for chest rigs, plate carriers, and belt-mounted configurations.

A reinforced 4" woven double elastic retention band combined with an advanced non-slip interior lining ensures a secure, stable hold during movement. The design also allows for optional bungee retention (not included) depending on operational requirements.

Proudly Berry Compliant and Made in the USA, the ARES-V is built for users who value simplicity, reliability, and mission-ready performance.
