I think if you had used one of the three mags in carriers on your belt, this would have been a non-issue and you would be abiding by the current rules. I shoot a revolver and come to the line at each stage with three speedloaders in holders on my belt and two in my pants pockets (plus a few loose rounds too). LAMR is from my pants pockets, so the three on the belt are just like the start of a regular match's string. Bottom feeders can have three carriers on the belt, but only 2 may have mags in them at the start. I think we all want the classifiers to run smooth and fast. I don't think I have ever heard of anyone getting dinged for fishing mags out of their pockets during a classifier. Not taking sides here, but it's a game with rules. Let's try to follow them so the "Tribal" aspect (as Chris says) is minimalized.
