Re: Poll: How many rounds do you carry?

I appreciate all of the votes. That's a pretty classic looking bell curve to be sure - with a little kick at the 50+ end.

I know it doesn't mean very much with different calibers and only being able to vote once despite different load outs. But I am surprised by the results. I thought either 21-25 or 26-30 categories would bring in the most. 11-15 roughly equates to a single double stack mag or two single stacks.

There was no selection for 5-41.

I carry as little as 5 rounds (my .357 snubbie with no extra speedloaders) to as many as 41 (10=1 in my M&P 45 plus 3 extra 10 round mags).

But most of the time, 10-21 would cover it:
  • 5 round snubbie + 1 5 round speedloader
  • Kimber Ultra + 1 7 round magazine
  • Springfield Loaded + 1 8 round magazine
  • M&P 45 + 1 10 round magazine
So I guess you voted 21-25?

From your list it looks like you never carry more then 1 gun? A friend of mine says he perfers to carry a back up gun over a second mag. But usually he carries both.

Thanks for thinking about and sticking to the most common. I think the results will be the most interesting and useful that way.

So how did you vote?

Poll: How many rounds do you carry?

I know sometimes some go 'light'. If I could post two polls, I would ask both for the 'light' load and the 'full' load. But since only one poll per post:

How many rounds to you generally carry - your most frequent load out?

Count all rounds in all weapons and magazines on your walking person - not in vehicles. Don't count knives, tazers, pepper spray, or any other projectiles including thoughts of throwing your emptied weapon.

Edited to add: Speed loaders and ammo belt loops also included.

Just curious and thanks in advance ...

Edited to add 'Poll' to the Subject.
