Angled P90 mag pouch take too much room. Even if I had them under my arms kinda, it would stick out either at the front or at the back and snag all over.
I'd prefer the added thickness of double magpouchs over angled magpouchs.

I just received my LBT 9040 (RRV) and I found that I can't put 4 P90 magpouches side by side on the front. It only fit 3. The other one is offset to the side and stick out at the bottom or top of the rig, wich is a big no-no. It will interfer with either the 1st line (belt) or arm movements.
I will have to think of another way. I'm swarmed by work and university, I don't have the time yet to arrange my setup. Anyway, the RRV will be used for my futur M4.

Back to P90, If I want to carry more mags, Going with a dropleg is the only way to go if your regular vest is full. The mags are so large and long, they can't be managed like regular rifle mags. For field use, I'd stick with 4 or 8 (double pouchs) on my vest and as last resort, 2 or 4 on a dropleg. Maybe 4 on the leg is streching it a bit... You will walk in circle with all that bulk there! hehe.
