Flawed thinking?

I will admit I am not a handgun "slappy". I have some  and like them but my love is bolt action rifles. I have been picking up mags and parts for guns I have for about 6mo now. I was on Ebay today and noticed that non  "assault weapon" mags are cheap. I was able to pick up some g17, sig, and ruger mags for $10shipped. I was thinking that getting 3 mags a $10 is better than buying 1 33rounder for $30. My thought is that having more mags to spread around ie. nightstand, car, shop, bathroom, coffe table and closets. That way no matter where I am there is a spare mag or two, plus carrying a 33round mag is not comfortable. I have several 17 round mags for the glock and the 10's would just be extras.  Am I going about this wrong?

Cannot go wrong with extra magazines, either 10 or 33 rounders. Personally I would not mind having three 10 rounders over one 33 rounder.

I have practiced changing mags and can change them without skipping a beat. With the price of the 33round mags I just can't afford to get them anymore.

I'd take either. One is for one use and the other is by necessity. Never know.

10 rounders are great if you want to try shooting in matches, From what I've seen a lot of them only allow 10rds loaded in a mag.

In the heat of battle you are likely to experience a malfunction and having an extra to go to helps the problem. I don't see a problem with the thought of multiple magazines over one or two hi capacity ones.

That was kind of what I was thinking.

That is primarily because of the '94 AWB.

Only way to have to many mags is if ya go swimming, then ya might sink.

As far as multiple 10 rounders vs 1 hi cap mags, id rather have multiple hi caps lol

I've rattled off 33 out of those hicap Glock mags without a problem, every time. Same with those Kriss hicap .45 mags

for bigger brother G21 and G30. The reasons are what you perceive as your needs for use.

 

All of them serve a purpose.
