    Pod Packs for 100 round pods?

    Does anyone make a pod pack that holds 100 round pods anymore?

    I like to run with a GoG multi-cal hopper that holds 100 rounds, and loading from a 100 round pod is super convenient. I've been using a PB Mafia/Topstitch 5/Fifty pack with 100 rounds pods, and it works, but I'm looking to see what else might be out there. My complaint with it is the friction fit and lack of any kind of support to keep the hoops open makes it hard to get the pods back in during play. I typically play scenario games, so just dropping pods on the ground and collecting later isn't ideal.

    Some type of pack that has a strap at the bottom but no elastic up top to push the pod out would probably work pretty well. I’ll try to find a picture of what I’m talking about. Otherwise the only thing I’ve seen specifically for the 100 round pods is that floppy view loader pouch that holds 2 of them on a belt.

      I use 100rd pods in my Dye Jet pack, they just do not push very hard on the elastic but work fine. I also use Paintball Mafia 5/50 and it works for 100rd pods just fine.

        The 5/50 does work well. But I'd look into this GI pack especially because the holders can be adjusted and the price is pretty good. I have a super rare Bunkerkings 2 pod pack that's strapless, will be using with 100 and larger pods.

          Looks pretty good. I like how the holders are adjustable to get the right fit on the pods.

        I still use the old school harness pod packs, their usually made by unique and are very nice packs. I also have a sandana pack thats the same style as the unique pack, just without the shoulder straps.

        Another pack if you keep an eye out are the old hawaiin themed ronin packs, I've got a 3 +2 pack thats perfect for 100 round pods.

          I generally run either 100s or 50s and have had a good experience with these generic Ebay packs, which I think are a knockoff of an old WGP design. They have a nice and rigid frame, loops that stay open, and the included pods are decent. If you buy the one with 50s included it's cheaper then buying the pods alone. The only downside is that they don't eject.

            This is the kind I was thinking of. They fit any size pod

          If you can find one Indian Springs made a 3-pack for 100-round pods back in the 90s. I have one, and both the pack and all the pods still work fine. Granted, using them is a bit clunky (the pods come out the top not the bottom and there's a velcro cover so there's a bit of rummaging involved in pulling them out and putting them back) but the quality on both the pods and the pack are freaking bulletproof. Mine is nearly 30 years old and works as good as the day I bought it.

            I use a standard pack for 140s with standard pods. I just put two paper towels in the bottom of My 140 round pods. This cuts capacity down perfectly for 100 round hoppers like the sport shot.

            works perfectly just jam them in the bottom. Put the paint on top the paper towels, wedged themselves in the bottom and keep the paint rattling when running. No need for new gear.
