imschur Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 How many is enough ?I have about 30 FAL mags,20 AR mags yet I only have 2 for the P12 and 92F. Lately Ive begun to gather .308 mags for the DPMS LR-308. I think I have about 6 so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I've always felt comfortable with 3 mags for each firearm. As time passes and opportunity arises I acquire more. But I allow that to occur by happenstance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I ordered two extras for my M&P 15-22 last week, I got a post card from Smith & Wesson yesterday. They are on backorder for 4 to 6 weeks ... bummer.They were happy to take my money in advance though :-[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I agree with cyclone, I have 3 for each of my handguns, and just because I haven't bought any more 3 for my Marlin, but may pick up more at the next gun show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhouse Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I've got a bunch of AR mags, but I've got 6 AR's, so maybe an average of 5 per rifle.Pistol mags I have right around the same, an average of 5 per gun. I might have a few more single-stack 1911 mags though.I never really bought into the mentality of having hundreds of magazines, but some of my friends have those quantities.

imschur Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Its funny when I bought my FAL mags years ago before the internet I had to buy them in a bulk pack new in the wrapper for a couple dollars a piece. Shotgun News was the place to search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I always watch Midway for sales on Chip McCormick 1911 mags. I think I still have 3 of the original Act-Mags that came with the RIA and the Citadel I want to place, I keep those for snap caps and reloading drills.

FS2KSTD Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 I try to have at least 5-10 mags for each pistol and 15-20 per rifle. The AR mags are the exception since I have 3 AR's and the FS2000 that use the same mags ... 25-30 of those; total. I'll probably have 5-10 GSG mags eventually but I just bought the rifle so I only have 3 at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asmurff Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Well I see I'm not doing my part in the American way and keeping up with the Jones. Alas it will have to wait till after Christmas and they'll have to compete with 10/22 acessories I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
