The most common malfunctions with a semi-auto pistol can be fixed by swapping mags. I don't carry backup for the extra ammo, but for the first mag messing up. It just has the extra benefit of providing more ammo should I end up in some a problem arises situation (beyond the normal bad day of having to use a pistol). I could drop the extra mags on the left hip and put a gun there. I just don't want to spend the time training my left hand. A backup gun is a great idea, not just for you. You can also use it to arm someone else (maybe a wife that refuses to carry, but can shoot). I'm just stubborn and lazy. I don't want to give up my reloads that I'm comfortable with. I don't want to spend the years I've trained and practiced my right hand on my left hand. I can shoot offhand but not nearly as well.
