Re: How many rounds?

I won't disparage those who carry less but I never carry less than one fully-charged, spare magazine. If I'm carrying a 1911, make that two spares. Occasionally, I'll carry a spare gun in high risk areas. So that generally means I'm carrying no less than 24 rounds on my person.

I don't pretend or in anyway imagine myself to be a part of law enforcement. But the reality is, if something goes down, I will be on my own until the police get there. We also know that most violent encounters now involve more than one attacker. With that in mind, I subscribe to the philosophy that one cannot have too much ammunition unless he's on fire or trying to swim.
