How many magazines do you need for pistol only games?

Postby r56mcs » Sun Jul 18, 2010 1:50 am

How many magazines are you going to carry for the pistol only game at the Summer Slaughter?

BTW, my Glock mag holds 14 rounds.

Is that one in the pistol plus 1466 or 1467 extra magazines?

He's talking about for the pistol only game. That being said I carry three or four.

Just buy a spring pistol and a bag of BB's and muzzle load it.

Or 1,467 mags. Whichever.

Last pistol only game I ran in, I carried 4 mags total for my 1911 and a Glock 26 as a backup. I ended up using my Glock a few times, so I suggest how ever many it takes for you to have about 30 or more bb's without needing to reload.

All joking aside, whenever I use my pistol it seems like the mags empty like water out of a shower drain. At least 4-5, I'd say.

And, yes, that was 1,467 extra mags plus the one in the pistol.

It seemed a reasonable number until you mentioned the one in the pistol. That's just wasteful.

Ha ha well when I ran mid-caps, I only used four. I think it's fun-er than running with 6+. A bit stupid, but fun.

4 to 5 is a pretty good number

I could get a 50 round mag... Will it look weird?
A 15rd mag is $27 and a 50rd mag is $40. It will be cost effective.
What do you think?

I useally rock three pistol mags. Most pistol only games are pretty quick you will will have time to reload between rounds.

5 for my SV Infinity, 4 for my Glock 26 and 3 for my 1911, and possibly a few more pistols. Don't know. All I have to say is, Bring. It. On. :badgrin:
