MODULAR AR MAG CARRIER
Description
Made-to-Order Kydex AR Magazine Carrier
The Dara Modular AR Magazine Carrier is designed for secure retention, easy access, and flexible mounting. Whether you're setting up a competition belt, building a duty loadout or organizing equipment for the range, this carrier gives you a durable way to carry AR-platform magazines.
Each carrier is made from thick .125" Kydex/Boltaron and features an adjustable rubber retention system. The modular design allows multiple carriers to be stacked together, helping conserve space on your belt or equipment setup. As the shell is made from thick thermoform plastic, the mag carrier will stay easily accessible no matter the position you find yourself in.
Key Features
- .125" Kydex/Boltaron construction: A rigid, durable thermoplastic body designed for demanding use.
- Adjustable rubber retention: Allows you to adjust how tightly the carrier holds the magazine.
- Ambidextrous design: Suitable for right- or left-handed configurations.
- Stackable configuration: Multiple AR magazine carriers can be stacked to conserve mounting space.

Adjustable Magazine Retention
The carrier uses Dara's adjustable rubber retention system to hold the magazine securely while allowing you to customize the amount of resistance during removal. Adjust in quarter or half turn increments to your desired draw weight.
This is especially useful when switching between magazine brands or configuring your equipment for different applications. You can adjust retention based on your preferred balance of security and accessibility.
AR Magazine Compatibility
The Dara Kydex AR Magazine Carrier is designed to accommodate many common AR-platform magazines, including:
- GI-style / AR-Stoner magazines

Compatible magazine types include supported 5.56 and 7.62 configurations. Fit may vary depending on the magazine's dimensions, manufacturer, and design.
Important: Not every AR-platform magazine has the same external dimensions. Confirm compatibility with your specific magazine before ordering.
