Hey gang! I've been rocking my Makarov PM in the military flap holster that came with it. It's a good holster, not that fast into action but it protects the gun very well and it's what I have right now.
Included with these holsters is a built in pouch that holds a spare magazine:
Now being a righty, I've been practicing different ways of reloading from the spare magazine pouch. My technique so far is to reach over with my left hand while my right hand (which also is holding the gun) moves to the holster and tilts it forward, allowing my left hand to grab the magazine and withdraw it. Then I reload as normal with my support hand.
I am wondering, is this a good method? It's a little bit awkward but it works well enough. Originally the spare magazine compartment was very stiff on my holster so I worked a magazine in and out several hundred times and now it's acceptably loose.
So those of you that use or have used military style flap holders with built in magazine pouches, how do you go about reloading from said pouch?
Thanks!
