What the Gear-Up program did was get you 3 extra mags, above & beyond the original 2 that comes with the pistol (so 5 total).

The holster & mag pouch that comes with the XD/XDM line are not top notch, but they're definitely good enough for the range if you frequent a range that lets you draw and fire and are good enough for novice USPSA/IDPA participation.
I sold my last for sets of "SA gear stuff" on GB and have listed this set with the hard case as well. The stuff does work and would be OK for certain situations. Cheers.. Ron
