Which Rangefinder Pouch For New Model Leica Base Model CRF-R Rangemaster #40504

[MtnW]

Need a rangefinder pouch. This will be for the new base model Leica that came out in 2024 , Leica base model CRF-R Rangemaster compact #40504.
Are the Marsupial model small and the KUIU to tight of a fit for this new model Leica?
What pouch/carrier are you guys using for this model of Leica?

I use the Crf 2400 R which is essentially the same size as the one you’re looking at. It fits my FHF and Marsupial pouches no issue. Both are the smaller size pouches

Wanting to find a pouch that is sealed up pretty tight fo keep dust and debris off the lens and control buttons . Many of the pouches available have large gaps , exposed opening on each side toward the top sides of the closure flap. Muley Freak has a new rangefinder pouch but the owner is of questionable character and probably prefer not to give him business.

Lots of brands are making rangefinder pouches. We frequent some dusty areas out west and after some days all of our gear can be covered in a layer of dust, especially if using sxs. I use a magnetic Marsupial for my binos and that works pretty good. I was surprised that many of the rangefinder cases are not fully covered allowing dust and debris into the lens and controls through the side openings . I ordered 4 different pouches and will see which ones are keepers.

Any update of fit? Stuck in the same spot you were.

Call me crazy, cheap, or old fashioned, but I got a four pack of MOLLE pouches for $20 on Amazon. My rangefinder is currently in the top right one.

My old LBV works great for range or hunting. In clockwise order from top right:
Pouch for Leupold RX1400 rangefinder (also the perfect size to carry a 10-round MambaMag).
Knife - always good to have a knife.
Dump pouch
Grenade pouches - each currently holds three CZ 527 magazines.
Map pouch - currently has my Leica 10x42 RF binoculars in it, also good for miscellaneous stuff if I leave them behind.
SWFA 12x binocular pouch (only for range days when I have a spotter or if I leave the Leicas behind)
Grenade pouch with compass

There’s currently a lot of redundancy and flexibility in the setup. I’ll probably never carry two rangefinders. Or two sets of binoculars. But it’s always nice to have extra pouches.
