need help finding a good carry for spare mags.
Hello all,
I carry a Springfield XD 45 cal side arm, (yes the 5 inch modal) IWB style in the small of my back. But I find that well my weapon is is safe and not seen I have problems concealing the the two spare mags that I carry. Right now I am using the Tagua IWB holster but have not given much thought on how to better carry the 2 spare mags. Any ideas????? EBC |

I used some scrap leather to make a spare mag carrier that I also carry my Kershaw knife, or one of my three spare LCP mags. It's not much to look at, but it goes in my front pocket and doesn't print through my Jeans.

EBC, you have several options, depending on how concealable your magazines need to be, and your dress code.
crossbreedholsters.com and others carry IWB magazine carriers, many are tuckable. When carrying IWB holster, for a spare magazine I just use a leather or nylon knife/multi-tool sheath. It's on the outside of the belt, but unobtrusive and mostly unrecognizeable, especially in casual clothes like jeans. HTH -jb |

I use the Galco DMC Double Magazine Carrier. It sits tight against my body so it doesn't print. I carry them at 8:00
It's not an IWB though, so disregard if that's what you're looking for. Galco Holsters DMC Double Magazine Case

First of all...Welcome to the forum...
I also carry extra mags in a nylon Gerber Multi-tool pouch. The sheep never even give it a second thought...

I also carry IWB/SOB (but over the right kidney not the spine) with a palm out draw.
I use this OWB for mags... Galco Protect and Serve Mag Pouches / Cuff-Cases I have a single and a double...clips on belt. (IWB's dig into the skin...on me, OMO)

Milt Sparks makes an excellent IWB mag carrier, although you might have quite
a wait.

Sometimes I carry spare mag IWB, sometimes OWB. I use the same mag carrier for both methods when I'm not carrying pistol OWB.
Uncle Mike's - Kydex Mag Cases  Just to add a bit more to carrying spare magazines.........I don't tend to worry about totally concealing them as well as I am the pistol I'm carrying.

My holster is IWB but my spare magazine pouch is OWB. I have enough IWB already!
 Galco makes a couple nice OWB Magazine Pouches that are available without any wait. A t-shirt covers my IWB holster and the OWB pouch just fine.
