How many magazines?

[hghclsswhitetrsh]

Mags break and I plan on living a long long time..

This. And I don't plan on getting any class 2 misdemeanors after July 1.

I wonder, on July 2, which phrase, among gun owners in CO will be more common:

A) "wow, I wish I hadn't bought so many magazines that hold more than 15rds."
B) "wow, I wish I had bought a few more magazines that hold more than 15rds."

I agree with most guys here. If you're on foot, anymore than about 10 or so (for each rifle) is gonna start getting heavy. If you're holed up in a defensive position, you can never have enough. Same concept for ammo. 1k rounds of each caliber is a good minimum for a stockpile, but are you gonna be able to carry that much if you're on the move?

Have you personally ever carried 10 loaded AR mags on you?

...it's like 16-18lbs of magazines...

Absolute waste...where are you going to put them all? Double mag pouches everywhere? + battle belt + drop leg???

I run 4 AR mags...3 pistol mags, hydration carrier, blow out kit, and that's about it....

looking at about 2lbs of empty plate carrier, maybe less, 1.2lbs'ish per AR mag, dunno what my M&P mags weigh, 15lbs or so for the plates, water is what? 5-6lbs/gallon?

I couldn't imagine running 10 AR mags on any given rig....just not feasible.

7 (1 loaded) on my deployment set-up was hell enough..plus you toss in frags, smoke, flashbangs, main chute, reserve chute, med kit, IFAK, CPP, radio, helmet, nods, etc....

"Wow, I thought I was going to have more kids by July 1st to transfer all 114 of my PMAGs to."

I'm thinking that even if these lib retards are successful...nobody has to know how many "hi cap" mags I have in my safe,*or other undisclosed locations* for when the world goes to shit. If I have to buy some 15 rd mags so that I can shoot at the range and keep the limp wristed fagetties happy, so be it. Having purchased or owning several 30 rd for multiple platforms is peace of mind in my opinion.

Nope. I normally carry 6 + 1, sometimes have an extra mag or two in my ruck depending on the situation. I know how heavy they are, but they're usually the lightest thing I have to carry due to the nature of my job. If I wasn't carrying all the other extra stuff I normally do, I would probably carry a few more mags somewhere.

The law (for now) will be no New mags.,veryone is stressing out. For all the tough talk over the years i see lots of knee buckling / nervousness, from a lot of board members. Where's that Molon whatever you're all posturing?

I'm kinda already leaning towards A
I'm even thinking of cancelling a backorder for PMags and haven't even ordered on my wife's login for Magpul yet.
It's to the point now, where I probably won't buy more unless they are FDE or windowed.
