Any recommendation for a cheap MOLLE Gas bottle holder?

As I'm running my GBBR a lot, I find myself needing an MTP / green / tan pouch or holder for my bottles of Abbey Sniper / Ultrair.   I've looked at Amazon, but whilst there's a lot of choice of water bottle holders, they all look a bit bigger than I'd need - the gas can has a diameter of 2.5", whereas the water bottle holders are all 3.5".   The heights are a good match at ~10"

 

Any good ones out there (preferably on Amazon or eBay, so I'm less likely to get rinsed for a tenner just for p&p)...?

Or am I just over-thinking the diameter mismatch and "it'll be fine"?

I run this for either my HPA tank or a bottle of gas, depending on the gun I'm using. The diameter mismatch really isn't a problem and it has held my gas bottles just fine. Height is far more important.

I was thinking of the large one, because there aren't miniature bottles of Abbey Sniper gas or Ultrair available (I've already got a mini Nuprol 2.0 in an admin pouch), but things have changed somewhat, which I'll probably ask about in the propane thread (because that's what I might try using)

If you need a pouch for large green gas bottles, then the Viper P90 mag pouches fit them in.
Depending on the age of the pouch they might struggle with the slightly larger Red gas cans (Nuprol), with the newer ones being able to fit them.

Can get get copies if cant find/don't want to shell out for the orginal  https://www.tactical-kit.co.uk/spiritus-systems-pangolin-flap-48460-p.asp  Can replace most flaps that are Velcro adjustable, the cut out in the lid holds odd shaped things (and normal things) very well. I like the flap idea better as it makes the pouch more usable for other things. Vid better explaining the flap https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDNwqLn_9zY&ab_channel=SpiritusSystems
