Phantom M4 Rifle Magazine Carrier

Silent retention. Rapid presentation. Modular by design.

---

OVERVIEW

The Phantom M4 Rifle Magazine Carrier is a carrier engineered for operators who demand whisper-quiet handling, precise retention, and the freedom to configure their kit to mission needs. Where the Fortis line prioritised rigid structure, Phantom answers the modern operator’s call for a low-profile, high-control platform: a slim, durable carrier built around our Pyolmer retention element, dual-layer B52 Squadron construction, and a modular interface that moves between plate carriers, belts and chest rigs without compromise.

Important: the Phantom M4 Rifle Magazine Carrier ships as the carrier only. The secondary flap closure (Curv tooth removable flap) is available separately as an accessory for operators who want an additional mechanical lock and even greater signature reduction. This approach keeps the base system lean for users who prefer open-top speed while offering a silent, positive-lock option for those who require it.

KEY FEATURES (AT A GLANCE)

• Reliable, repeatable retention from the Pyolmer insert — secure in carry, immediate on extraction.
• Rugged 2-layer B52 Squadron construction for abrasion resistance and dimensional stability.
• Mini MOLLE rows on both front and rear for full mounting flexibility and doubling up carriers.
• Front MOLLE rows function as tooth-engagement slots when the optional Curv tooth flap is fitted.
• Compatible with Deadly Customs’ MOLLE-free Velcro mounting system for near-flush belt carry.
• Open-top by default — lighter, faster, and ready for operator preference; flap sold separately.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

Phantom isn’t a compromise; it’s a deliberate balance. We asked: how do you give rifle operators unwavering magazine control without the bulk and noise of traditional carriers? The answer was to combine an engineered retention element with tactical textiles and a modular mounting interface. The result is a carrier that disappears on the rig but remains intensely present when you need it — secure, repeatable, and quiet.

By shipping the carrier without the flap, we give operators control over configuration from day one. Want ultimate speed? Run it open-top and rely solely on the Pyolmer. Want a near-silent secondary lock? Add the Curv tooth flap accessory and benefit from a positive mechanical closure without Velcro rasp.

MATERIALS & CONSTRUCTION

The Phantom body uses two laminated layers of B52 Squadron textile. The outer layer resists abrasion, vegetation snags and scuffing from fast transitions. The inner layer preserves shape under load and prevents creep so retention remains consistent cycle after cycle. Stitching is performed with high-tenacity thread and reinforced with box-stitching and bartacks at load-bearing points.

Central to Phantom’s function is the Pyolmer insert. This engineered retention element is geometrically tuned to engage standard STANAG/M4 magazine profiles across a wide range of aftermarket manufacturers. Its compressive geometry provides lateral and vertical stability, eliminating wobble and play while permitting a clean, immediate draw.

When operators add the optional flap, the Curv-based tooth assembly mates with the front mini MOLLE rows (which double as tooth slots) to form a second line of mechanical security. The Curv tooth is lightweight, corrosion-resistant and engineered for hundreds of cycles without measurable wear.

---

RETENTION — ENGINEERED & INTUITIVE

Retention on the Phantom operates on a layered principle:

1. Primary: Pyolmer insert — engineered to conform to magazine contours and hold without excessive force; predictable retention means fewer surprises under stress.

2. Secondary (optional): Curv tooth flap — when fitted, the tooth engages the front mini MOLLE slots to mechanically lock the flap in place. This adds confidence for high-movement tasks and low-signature operations.

3. Geometry: The carrier’s feed angle and internal lip are optimised to index magazines consistently for identical presentation on every draw.

This combination ensures the magazine feels “locked” during movement yet releases cleanly under a practiced index. For operators who prefer immediate access, the Phantom’s standard open-top configuration delivers speed with the same engineered retention.

---

MOUNTING & MODULARITY

Phantom’s mini MOLLE rows front and rear create versatile mounting possibilities: direct attachment to plate carriers and chest rigs, laddering/doubling options for reload setups, or integration into pouches and packs. The rear mini MOLLE also accepts Deadly Customs’ MOLLE-free Velcro mounting interface — a low-profile solution that mates with the hook-side on the wearer’s belt or inner belt for near-flush attachment and reduced snag risk.

Because the front rows double as engagement slots for the optional Curv tooth, the flap accessory integrates seamlessly and keeps the carrier’s silhouette clean. The combined mounting and tooth-slot architecture removes the need for additional hardware and reduces points of failure.

---

FIT & COMPATIBILITY

Optimised for standard STANAG/M4 magazine bodies, the Pyolmer insert accommodates common dimensional variance between OEM and aftermarket magazines. Extended-capacity magazines are compatible; however, due to variances in geometry across manufacturers, Deadly Customs recommends verifying fit with a single carrier before committing to large kit orders. If you plan to use the Curv flap, ensure the additional thickness of your chosen magazine variant does not interfere with tooth engagement — the tooth accessory is designed with tolerance for commonly used mag bodies.

---

ERGONOMICS & USABILITY

Phantom’s low lip and feed angle permit rapid, gloved extraction while minimising the chance of catching on rigging. The open-top default supports immediate presentation; operators seeking added security can fit the removable flap. The flap attaches and detaches quickly without tools, allowing operators to reconfigure their kit during training or deployment. This modular choice supports different mission sets — fast reaction, carried redundancy, or low-signature movement — all from the same base carrier.

---

SILENT OPERATION (WHEN OPTED-IN)

The Curv tooth accessory is designed for minimal acoustic signature. Unlike hook-and-loop, Curv tooth engagement produces no prolonged rasp and is engineered to sit quietly while providing a distinct tactile click on seating. Because the flap is an accessory, operators can decide whether to adopt the silent mechanical lock depending on mission requirements.

---

DURABILITY & LIFECYCLE

Materials and construction methods are chosen for longevity. The B52 Squadron laminate resists UV and abrasion; textile edges use heat-sealed finishes where appropriate; and reinforcement at stress points prevents premature failure in high-cycle use. The Pyolmer insert retains dimensional stability across temperature extremes; the Curv tooth accessory is wear-resistant and corrosion-tolerant. Routine inspection and basic upkeep will keep Phantom operational for years.

---

MAINTENANCE & CARE

Routine care is minimal: remove sand and grit with compressed air or a soft brush, wipe with a damp cloth, and inspect stitch points and tooth engagement slots for debris. If exposed to salt or heavy contaminants, a mild detergent rinse and air dry are recommended. Avoid high-heat drying and aggressive solvents which can degrade adhesives and laminate performance.

---

TRAINING & TRANSITION GUIDANCE

Operators moving from Velcro-reliant carriers should expect a different tactile and acoustic profile. The Pyolmer offers stable retention without Velcro’s bite; the optional Curv flap provides a mechanically positive lock with a discrete seating click. We recommend a brief dry-practice regimen — 25–100 draws and re-stows — to develop consistent muscle memory for indexing and (if purchased) seating the Curv tooth. Phantom’s removable flap makes gradual transition easy: start with the flap accessory fitted for security, then remove if you prefer open-top speed.
