Blackhawk nalgene pouch - BlackHawk S.T.R.I.K.E. Utility Pouch w/Nalgene Bottle Pocket

I bought this pouch to add another quart of water to my LBE. I had difficulty attaching the pouch because the included speed clips are size 9 and the most my gear can support is 7. After obtaining the correct size speed clips I still had difficulty attaching the pouch because the webbing spacing was off. I have attached many MOLLE pouches to the same gear with no trouble (including other BlackHawk products), so it makes me think it's this pouch, not my load bearing harness.

After getting it attached the pouch performs mostly as expected. Sometimes you have to fight with the closure flap to get the bottle out. I do like the release buckle vs. velcro or a zipper. There is optional velcro to keep it closed if you want to use it.
Pros: Perfect size for Nalgene bottle. Uses less space than 1 quart USGI canteen
Cons: Attachment webbing spacing was off.
