How much extra ammunition do you carry

[XD_Dan]

I always carry 21 rounds.
10+1 in the XD SC and an extra 10 rnd mag.

I hope I never need any of them.

I always carry extra ammo. "One is none, two is one, and three is better." I heard that several times at Thunder Ranch and they seem to be pretty good at what they do there.

BTW: Anyone have an extra speed strip I can buy, I don't want to pay $5 shipping or whatever from Dillon, and Carter's Country doesn't carry them. They thought I was an idiot and meant speed loaders.

Just in case...

I'm with the crowd that says if you can't get it done with what you have in the gun right now, you're in a lot more trouble than you can imagine...

Picture the IDPA course of fire that has you walking backwards, firing two rounds into each target as you are leaving a simulated "structural" establishment...

But in real life, I find it hard to believe multiple aggressors continuing to pursue you out the door of some place after you have decisively put down one of their compadres...

But...Stranger things have happened...

Someday I may work up and buy some of those "normal" capacity mags...But for now...I'm ok with the 10 +1, with 10 behind that arrangement...

Later,
Steve

Not presently, but a gun shop (Doc's) I get by sometimes down in Carrollton usually stocks 'em. 2 to a pkg I think for around $10. Will try to PM ya if I get more in hand.

Right now packing a bersa .380 which holds 7 rounds in a uncle mikes in the pants hip holster with a side magazine pouch which will actually fit two clips. So I've got one in the weapon and two in the pouch a total of 21 rounds. I hope I will never have to use the first seven muchless the other fourteen. Beings that I have a weapon with such a low hatcher rating I'll probably have to unload the first seven to get my point acrsoss anyway if ya know what I mean. However, I just started saving for a Kimber pro carry haven't decided which one though. I do know that I want the night sights to go with it.
