Ok , I got to thinking when I came back from shooting today how many magazines do you have for each weapon you have? Hmmm well I know I have atleast 15 20 to 30 rd mags for my 3 AR-15's, atleast 4 for every pistol I own, and a minimum 4 to 6 for every rifle I own. So whatcha thinks guys how many do you feel is satisfactory?

Have and need only 4 per handgun.

Same neighborhood for me. Usually 4-5. I kind of backed into the number by deciding how many rounds I wanted to shoot at the range. We have a time limit so I always have the mags loaded. That's for handguns. For the AR I just want volume for the apocalypse.

Well, let's see...
I have 4-30 round mags for my AR-15. 2-6 round mags for my Kel-Tec P3AT, 1-10 round and 1-17 round mag that came with my SR9c, 4-25 round mags for my 10-22, and 2 speed loaders for my GP100. Also added the extended mag tube for my Remington 870 so now I can shove 7 rounds into that.

That should be enough ammo capacity (although I do subscribe to the notion that more is better, I'd rather spend my extra money on more guns rather than more mags for the guns I already have).

Mathematically, I average about 3 1/2 mags per pistol. :D I need more for my SR9 to raise the average though. :D

Beretta Cougar 8045 - (3) 8rd mags
PX4 Storm .40 - (3) 14rd mags & (2) 17rd ext. mags
Beretta 90-Two .40 - (4) 12rd mags
Ruger SR9 - (2) 17rd mags
SIG P229 .40 - (3) 12rd LE mags & (2) 14rd ext. mags
Zastava EZ9 - (3) 15rd mags

I'm a pistol guy but I do have a Ruger 10/22. I have just two magazines for it that are nearly 40 years old. One came with the gun and one I bought. They both work fine but I just bought two more for when I go shooting with the grand kids. That way, they can be loading their magazines while another one shoots.

Given the comments above, I am now feeling inadequate. I guess I'll just have to buy a semi-auto so I can get lots of magazines.:) (Now if they would just add the SR1911 to the California "safe" gun list I'd be at the store right now.)

2 10 round and 2 17 round for my 9mm SR9C.
However, in my home state (MD) this is probably going away, as, the legislators here deem armed citizens under the 2nd Admendment a threat. So, I suppose in a year or two, the magazines will be restircted to 4 or less rounds as the legislators figure less rounds less "threat"
Gosh, I can't wait to vacate this reiduclous state!

starting with Rugers 'cause this is a forum for them ;) 7 for SR1911 because well just because its a 1911 and some matches need lots, 6 for 22/45, 4 ten rnd factory and one 25 rnd Shooter's Ridge for 10/22, 5 for BHP, 5 for XD

For the SR9c and SR40c I have only the 2 mags that it came with from the factory. I plan to buy maybe 2-3 more of the larger mags for each at some point. For my XDm9 I caught a Father's Day sale and picked up 4 more (total of 6 now) for dirt cheap.

I have one spare magazine for my 308 Winchesters
(3 rifles using the same mag) total 4 mags

I have 5 five-round factory mags
and 1 ten-round box mag for my Saiga S-12

I have 3 twelve-rounders for my Taurus 24/7 OSS 45acp

I have two for my Tokarev war trophy 7.62x25mm

All others are integral mags in the guns.

I have about 5 per gun. I make sure I have three and then bargain hunt for others. I have some drum mags and extra capacity stick mags, but don't count them because they are impractical and more or less novelties that I couldn't resist. Some things I just have to try out, even if I know the outcome.

I have 8 or so for each AR, I try to at least have 4 for everything else.

I'm lacking mags for my VZ58 but everything else has my minimum.
