Now that's quite a few rounds...

[A.J. Holst]

I carried an SP101 with 1 speed loader for a number of years figuring if I needed more than 10, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Then I got a 1911, after breaking it in, started carrying it, jumped up to 15 rounds with an extra mag.

I recently acquired a CZ-75B, which quickly became my EDC since I shoot it better than my 1911. With the cold weather and wearing a jacket, I can easily carry 2 extra mags. While emptying my pockets last night, my wife gave one of those looks, you know, the one which implies you are crazy.

"what is it honey?"

"you got quite a few bullets there"

"what do you mean, it's just two extra magazines."

"how many"

"it's only, oh, well, 48..."

Today I must really be paranoid since I am wearing a heavy overcoat which makes it difficult to access my IWB, so the SP is my coat pocket.

Did you see this thread a while back? It might make you feel less paranoid...especially when you read post #4 from Mike.

Edit: I guess I should have posted the link the first time. Sorry

Not the thread that Trekbike is referring to, I think I need to see it as well, but here is another one, FIrst post.

My extended family has mostly gotten used to me carrying. But, during the winter when it is easier for me to carry IWB they look at me funny when I take it and my ankle holster off...

I guess it depends on what I carry. For my PM9 I have one extra mag, so 6+1 plus 7round mag. If I have my 1911 (mostly during winter) I have a 8+1 plus a 10 round mag. So anywhere from 14 to 19.

Does TN have a certain law saying how many rounds the gun can have. Since I am looking at getting one to carry I was just wondering if there was a limit on how many. Thanks for the help.

No.

Some states limit the magazine capacity, but it's not a limit, per se, on how many rounds YOU can carry.
