Sorry let me clarify. Even in Perfectville, USA, I would keep half of my mags loaded at all times. I was saying that due to recent events, I've been keeping more than half loaded. Should the call ever go out, I don't want to waste time trying to load mags, and usually if I go to the range I will take the ones in surplus of the half that are loaded and use them.
