gerritm Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 My son carries 6. 2-triple Safariland 775 mag holders ( I think that is the #). Can never have too many. gerritm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooster Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Most of the time I do 4 on belt. 1 Barney mag with 1 round in it, and 1 full mag in pocket with 4 on belt. Barney loads 1 when I drop the mag if it’s empty I know round is in chamber, then I load other mag from pocket. Once in a while I might put 5 mags on belt just in case.

DKorn Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I ran 5 on my belt and load my first mag out of my pocket at make ready, just like if I’m shooting production. However, I also usually shot minor when I shot single stack. If you’re shooting major and only have 8 round mags, 5 is cutting it a bit tight on unloaded starts but should be doable.

kooyahdesigns Posted April 19, 2019 Author Share Posted April 19, 2019 Thanks for the input. I am going to be shooting minor in single stack. Maybe 6 mags on belt is the safer bet and a load mag in my pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the very rare stage where you’re worried about running out, tuck 1 more mag in your back pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgj3 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Even in major, 5 should be sufficient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
