I purchased a double mag pouch for double stack steel mags. The company noted that if a person used steel mags they might not be held securely unless they were on the belt. In other places on the web I read reviews that said that the pouch would not hold the mags securely. THAT WAS NOT my experience. The front pouch was actually a little too tight. The rear pouch held securely and had excellent release when drawing. This is for my Walther PPQ M1 4inch barrel handgun.
