Key Features & Design Elements

• Grenadier Specific Set: The "Set 18" refers to the total number of pouches issued for a grenadier's combat load, ensuring a dedicated and efficient way to carry an assortment of 40mm rounds.
• Typical Composition: The set usually includes a specific mix of different pouch types to accommodate the various 40mm rounds:
• (12) Single 40mm High Explosive (HE) Pockets
• (4) Double 40mm High Explosive (HE) Pockets
• (2) Double 40mm Pyrotechnic Pockets (designed to hold the longer flare/smoke rounds)
• MOLLE II Attachment: Features robust nylon webbing straps with snap closures on the back, making them fully compatible with the standard MOLLE/PALS webbing found on the USGI Fighting Load Carrier (FLC), Rucksacks, and other tactical vests and belts.
• Durable Construction: Built to military specification (Mil-Spec) by various government contractors using high-strength Cordura Nylon, designed to withstand the rigors of combat and extreme operational environments.
• ACU Digital Camouflage: The Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP) is the standard digital camouflage for the US Army's ACU (Army Combat Uniform) at the time of issue.
• Quick-Access Closure: Each pouch features a simple, secure flap closure typically held by a metal snap dome, allowing for quick, single-handed access to the grenade rounds.
• Water Drainage: Designed with an open-ended bottom or drain grommets on most pouches. This feature prevents water, sand, and dirt from accumulating inside, and allows the operator to easily push the grenade round up and out of the pouch from the bottom.
