As a CCW, not considering duty, or mags in your vehicle or in close proximity.
How many mags do you carry on your person when CCW?
How many mags do you carry on your person when CCW?
Maybe if I carried a 1911 with 8 rounds I'd concider carrying a spare. But I have 16 now and if I need more, I'm in Deep....
Well, I carry just the one right now with one up the pipe for a total of 14 in my Glock 23. I bought holster for my spare mag but I'm just trying to still get used to having something on my right hip without adding something on my left too. LOL
I carry an extra magazine not for the extra rounds but because from my own research the part most likely to fail in any handgun (including Nighthawks, semi-custom, and custom) is the magazine. You'd be hurting in a real bad way should the magazine foul up. I do agree if you need more than 16 you don't need another mag you need a swat team.
I carry a 1911 ccw with 18total rounds (one extra)
and a G17 on duty with 52 rounds..(two extra) my Glock came with 3 mags, the mag pouch holds 2 so I figured why not...
