I'm looking to get 2 rifle mag carriers to attach to a duty belt. My duty belt is almost 2" wide and about 1/4" thick. I need to be able to add them and take them off as needed without having to remove anything else from the belt. My first thought was the Blade Tech double rifle mag carrier with the Tek-Lok attachment. The width is good but the thickness of the belt will not allow the tec-lok to close. Most other options out there seem to be molle attachments. Because the belt is right under 2", it's the width of two strips of webbing. But because I'm sorta forcing the molle, I don't know if a 2 deep carrier (click for example) will be stable enough.
I'm pretty sure I've settled on the G-Code Soft Shell Scorpion with the molle clip. The molle clip covers 3 widths of webbing on a vest and there is no webbing on the back of the carrier so there may be some play in the carrier when attached. I think I can add some velcro to the inside of the clip that will mate with the inside of the duty belt to alleviate that issue. I believe my second choice would be the esstac 5.56 Double KYWI Shorty. I think my third choice may be the HSGI Taco. For some reason I'm not a huge fan of those.
So my question is this: does anyone have any suggestion regarding a better way to attach molle to a duty belt? Or does anyone have any suggestion about a different mag carrier that can be put on and taken off as needed?
