What do you use for a mag pouch?
LOL on the quick adoption of the signature :)
It's very fitting, especially after you posted the AR shot.

Are you part of some security detail, military contractor or from the forces ?
Moin, there are several million AR's in civilian possession. It is quite common to see them on any public range. These are semi auto firearms.
There are some full auto's in civilian possession too but they are heavily restricted.

Currently I'm using either a double mag pouch from armordillo concealment (have a matching OWB) or a remora double mag pouch depending on what I'm wearing and my mood. I carry 230gr STX.

I agree, the VM2 is pretty much the standard that other holsters aspire to.

My favorite holster that I own is pretty much inspired by the VM2.
It is made by a local holster maker and is very comfortable. It is a little broader than the VM2 but very stable because of it.
It is also tuckable.
