K-rub,
I've got a few, both the rifles and some pistols. I can't really complain about the single rifle TACOS, they work as advertised. I currently only run 1 on a chest rig as a speed reload, with the other mag pouches using lids. Before I settled on this I had them set up 3 across on a plate carrier and chest rig. They are fine with a chest rig, and work decent with a plate carrier in prone. Where I start having issues, is with the double stacked ones. I have 1 double stack rifle TACO that I have on a belt, it sticks out quite a bit and I wouldn't care to stick it onto the front of a plate carrier, the rifle + pistol combo is a little better but I still prefer the single rifle TACOs.
As far as durability, they have held up great and I haven't had a issue yet. I can see where it could be, but they use fairly heavy duty shock cord and thus far I've gone through some fun vegetation and not had any snag issues with the TACO. The retention is shock cord and a cord-lock, so it's a fairly easy fix if they do break.
Will say this with the pistol TACOS, they hold Glock mags just fine, 1911 mags have room for some slippage even when all the way tightened down.
You can't go wrong with the single rifle TACOs, the double stacks and pistols just aren't for me, but that's more of a personal preference.
