Do you carry spare mags?

[Rangel]

I carry an extra mag on my side, and have another standard G19 mag and 33rd mag in my truck.

Answered poll. Two spare 17 rounders. One AIWB at 11:00, the other in right front pocket.

If I can't take care of any self defence situation with 16 rounds, there is too many of them and I am not going to make it. No need to give them extra ammo when they take my gun after I am dead.

If you think your equipment is not that reliable you need better equipment. I carried a gun for 12 years as a street cop and never drew it. My probably of using it for self defence is nil. But I always have it and test it regularly. I see no need to carry around a lot of extra weight and increase my chances of being made carrying. I am not a combat troop or swat member on my way to a known threat.

This says so much. A lot of things are clearer now.

Only 51 rounds? Do you think that'll be enough?

No spare mags on my person. 4 spare
mags in the truck.

I know it's good to be prepared and all, but I never thought it realistic that I would end up engaging in a full-out Hollywood-style gunfight so I've never carried a spare. I figure if I run out and am still in need, then I'm probably in a situation where one more magazine isn't going to help me. I would be more apt to carry a backup handgun. The New York reload is faster and having two guns means redundancy - so if your firing pin decides to break on you at a crucial time, you're not screwed.

I suppose the way you view the firing pin, I view the magazine.

If there is a problem with the magazine or it gets dropped I can pull my second mag and still be in the fight. Carrying two guns? Sure why not but thats not for me.

Me neither. That's why I stay in shape. Hopefully I can run myself out of a situation if I'm running low on ammo.

One mag in OWB carrier at 7-8 o' clock. With a quality belt and loose cover garment, it conceals well.

 

[SPCHardin]

Do I? No. Should I? Yes. I carry a G32 and I have a blackhawk double mag holster. Usually I have it jammed between the driver seat and the console in my car. I know that it would be better if I did, but I am already a smaller guy and I worry that it would be too much to comfortably conceal.
