Full description and what we offer
High Speed Gear® started in 1999 building custom gear for Marines stationed at Camp Lejeune. That focused approach—making exactly what operators needed—is still the DNA of the company. Today, HSGI® manufactures 100% American-made tactical equipment trusted across military, law enforcement, and professional shooting communities.
"Battle-Proven Tactical Gear™" isn't marketing. It's what their products are.
The TACO® pouch is what High Speed Gear is known for. It's the official mag pouch of the Marine Corps. Here's why it works:
- •Shock cord lacing system = adjustable retention without fumbling with snaps or velcro
- •Contoured molded sides = easy insertion for magazines, handcuffs, radios, tourniquets
- •Modular design = mounts to MOLLE, duty belts, plate carriers, or chest rigs
- •Available configurations: Single/double/triple pistol, rifle, stacked, side-by-side, grenade pouches, canteen carriers
The GEN 2 TACO® line is lighter and sleeker than originals—almost 20% weight reduction while maintaining durability. Laser-cut nylon laminate over woven thermoplastic core. Available in Black, Coyote Brown, Ranger Green, MultiCam, LE Blue, MultiCam Black, Spruce Green, and Silver Tan.
