How much ammo do you carry for EDC?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I typically carry my M&P 40c and an extra full size mag with xgrip. Giving me 26 rounds total. I don't have a mag pouch so I keep it in my weak side pocket. I do sometimes carry my SD40 and extra mag bumping it up to 29. But just wondering your thoughts. 1 extra mag, 2 extra mags, no mags, or something else?

Loaded weapon, 1 spare magazine, and usually 1 box in the glove box.

So 71.

M&P 9

2 spare mags

J frame in pocket

K frame snub on ankle.

Rifle and accouterment in the truck.

I've never heard anyone who had to defend themselves complain of having too much ammo.

15+1 in my G20 and a spare mag (15) in a mag pouch on my weak side.

I mag (inside weapon) unless I'm traveling semi-close to home, then an extra mag in the truck.

Out of state, two extra mags.

Just my G27 (10 rounds). I carry two extra loaded mags in my truck console I can grab if I feel the need.

On my person ~ 11 in the gun and 10 in the spare mag = 21 rounds

While in my truck ~ Same 21 as mentioned above + 100 rounds in the console + a Mossberg 500 20" barrel shotty with 7 rounds in the mag and 6 in the side saddle + about 50 extra shells = 184 round between two guns while in the truck.

12+1 in the XD40. I spare of 12 in my console. I'm usually in there so that is where it stays. If I am on an inspection in a wonderous part of town, it goes in my pocket, weak side.

Well, all my handguns are in other states right now, but when I get them back it'll be this.

P14 with 10 round mag in the gun, 1 in the chamber, 2 14 round mags on strong side, set up in a crossdraw shoulder holster. 7 round revolver on right hip. Eventually getting some sort of other semi-auto for small of back, will need to find a place for 2 spare mages for that. Can yall see now why I've considered getting into leatherworking to make my own rigs and holsters? Oh, and before anybody gets any ideas because I just admitted to not having any of my handguns with me I've still got my 870 at home with a vest totaling 50 shells between what's on the vest, on the gun, and in the gun.
