I forgot to put my reason in my post, but that's it.

14+1 HydraShoks in the SW Sigma 40SVE, plus second 10-rd mag in an Uncle Mike's cordura nylon mag case for a total of 25 rounds.
I figure if I ever need more than that, I should have been carrying a rifle or shotgun in the first place.

If you guys would get a good pair of suspenders, they would stay up evenly.RPBrown wrote:G.C.Montgomery wrote:There is one other reason to carry spare magazines that I haven't seen anyone mention. It balances the weight on your belt so your pants sag evenly!

I am all for carrying spare mags. Not because I think I'm going to need that much ammo but because mags fail and if it's not putting the little noise makers into the launch tube when I need'em then I want a back-up band at the ready.
