I stole the whole thing from McThag.
Those of us whose gun-owning life straddles the Clinton Assault Weapon Ban have an… attitude about normal capacity magazines.
We accumulate them.
Lots of them.
We never ask, “do I need more?” because the answer is burned into our souls now.
YES! Buy them while you can.
Which leads to a situation where, even with a spreadsheet, I cannot honestly say how many magazines I have. Every time I think I’ve gotten a compete inventory, I find another stash.
I was done reading and I looked at what I thought it was a decent stash of magazines and felt… incomplete.
Spirit of JMB! Deliver me from Palmetto State Armory and their sale on D&H 30 round magazines for $6.99!
Damn you McThag!
How many should be kept loaded? Is 18 enough? (That’s loaded, not total)
The way I see it, every addict needs an enabler.
GMC70: Don’t load more than you can carry. You’ll hurt yourself relocating.
By the way: Brownell’s has Gen M3 PMAG-30’s on sale for $11 each if you drop for the ten-pack.

Psa had pmags for $9 ea if you bought more than 10, free shipping a couple of weeks ago. I reflexively bought 20
To paraphrase that Noted Moral Philosopher, Billy Idol: “After the AWB, she cried, ‘More! More! More!’/ With a rebel yell, she cried ”More! More! More!'”
When Obozo went wholy & completely full anti-2A retard (tears and everything), I just kept buying mags and stashing them away into a large Rubbermaid tub. Lost count but still do that whenever I see them cheap at a gun show.
Freaking tub weights more than my dog at this point. 😮
“More!” indeed. 😉
…I always thought that song was about the Three Stooges.
Heh… the idiotic work firewall blocked McThag’s Blog as a “pornography” site.
So guess IT IS gun porn after all! LOL!!
LOL… and he doe not even have a potty mouth!
I used to have the adult content warning screen up. It’s marked the site ever since.
One little mistake and you are Kavanaughed for the rest of your life
Well let me see, a basic combat load-out used to be 7, one in the rifle and 6 in pouches. So accounting for spares, and then a couple more for just in case, carry the 4, and then divide by 99 (common core math coming into play) – I guess the answer is: nunya – as in nunya business how many I have (or not) since I can neither confirm nor deny having any of them evil black rifles. YMMV of course.
Skip the aluminium magazines and just get pmags.

Of course you could just get some good ammo with some “packing peanuts” thrown in.

I spent my mag money on two new rifles. Now I need mags for the rifles. It’s in case I have company when SHTF, and they only have their daily carry with them.
Wow. You’re such a good host.
