I usually keep at least two but try to keep three to five
I have 4 for my XD40. Will probably get more as funds allow it.
I try to pick up every magazine I can get a good deal on.
It depends on the gun. If it's just something I've picked up but don't plan on making a regular everyday carry, I'm only going to get four or five extras. But, if I'm buying mags for a gun I carry on a regular basis, I'll buy one of two each time I get to the range. For instance, with my Glock 19, I probably have 15. For my FN 45, I have 10. Depends on the gun and how expensive the magazines are.
Planning on having at least three mags for each gun...
I suppose one mag is enough if that is all one wants.
Attending gun shows and going into firearm dealers, I will occasionally see mags at decent prices and buy them. Some of my guns have a couple of mags, others may have several.
Extra mags are handy to own but not vital until one breaks.
At least 4
1 in gun, 2 in holster. Robert
4 total. walther mags are pricey.
I keep 4 mags per auto. Two on guard duty, and two so I can rotate them every month or two.
Depends on the firearm, I got 3 for my XD, 8 for my 92FS, 4 for my glock, and 12 for my AR my "battlepack" if I gotta pick up and run, i got 360 rnds on my body.
I try for at least 3, a few more for the ones that I shoot often.
Hi all. I keep three mags for my SW M&P 9mm, one in the gun and one in my Nightwatch mag clamp. The third is somewhere in my nightstand.
At least five
five to ten depending on how long I've owned the gun. Glock 17 I have 10 mags unopened, and 6 older mags that still work well. Glock 22 8 new mags 4 older. My new Ruger Sr9 owned gun for less than 24 hours and currently have 4. I will get more as I find internet specials. Riffles I won't go there.
I have 6 for my G19, came with 2 10 rounders when I bought it, was able to talk the guy into throwing in 2 aftermarket 15 rounders so I'd buy from him, then found a deal online for 2 15 rounders and a 2 mag pouch for $25! :rolleyes: now if only in could get ammo to keep them filled :smt068
I always keep 2 or 3 mags for all of my guns.
:smt1099
I have between 1 and 30, depending on the gun.
4 or 5 for my CCW guns. Dennis
I have 4 for my XD45 and 4 for my Colt Defender. I'll be picking up more for the Defender.

id say 5 but the ar15 is different
New to handguns and the "sport" just purchased my first gun, XDm 9mm. Came with 2 mags, purchased 2 more. I find it much better to load at one time rathr then have to reload at the range, just me I'm sure. Plan to buy another gun next month and hope to be able to have the same number of mags for it. Stayed with the OEM, had heard that aftermarket was sometimes not so good, anyone else think so?

Yes. Stay with factory mags and you'll spend more, but save yourself problems/heartache.Quote:

Damn 3 day waiting period doesn't include weekend. I purchased Thursday, so the waiting period is Friday, Monday, Tuesday. First eligible day to pick it up is Weds.
