Does that mean I have to have 10 round mags or am I allowed to load 10 rounds in a 15 round mag? You can likely get by on most stages with four one in the gun and three on the belt if you had to at first. Five is minimal practical number of magazines to run and I did that whole competing heavily in Production for a number of years. Extra magazines allows for more options in how you can effectively shoot a stage.
I now run six one in the gun and five on the belt and can't recall whether I have ever used the last magazine on my belt. It's basically just there for insurance. I carry 5 in pouches, and one in my pocket. So, when make ready, I grab the last one in the pouch, load one rd in the chamber, remove mag and put back in the pouch, then I grab the one in my pocket and insert in the gun.
Hawaii have 10rd mag restriction, so we usually block our hi-cap mags to accept only 10rds. You can download your 15 rounders to 10 rounds. That's actually preferred since it's much easier to seat a 15 round magazine with 10 rounds loaded than it is to seat a 10 round magazines with 10 loaded.
I also keep th-congress rounds in the magazine I use to load with at the start of a stage so that I have 10 still in the magazine after putting one in the chamber. After the start single, however, more than 10 rounds loaded in any magazine gets you moved to open. Those sound interesting. Where can I get them? You can load 11 rounds into 1st mag leaving 10 rounds after loading chamber for run and then only 10 per mag after that You can run with four, but it may jam you up on mag changes on a long course of fire.
Or if you have a lot of misses to make up. My first mag is loaded with 11 and is in a pocket, then I have four mags with 10 rounds each on my belt. I also carry an extra magazine in a back pocket for six mags total. The last mag is in case I drop one from my belt during a reload. When the buzzer goes off you may not have more than 10 rounds in a magazine and all of the magazines carried on you body must be behind your hipbone.
I carry six mag pouches on my belt. Load the barney from the fifth mag, which then contains 9 rounds; replace it on the belt and insert 6 mag in the maxwell at Make Ready on most stages. That leaves we with 11 in the gun at the start and 49 rounds left on the belt in 5 mags. If it's an unloaded gun start, I have the same six mags on the belt, and the same 60 round capacity. I like consistency -- as much as possible.
If it's a weird stage with an inordinate number of reloads keep in mind sometimes it makes sense to fire 2 rounds and reload in production I can potentially utilize a seventh mag, by rearranging mags, or moving one from back pocket to maxwell after barney loading from the 6 mag. This is pretty rare. I have gone through a doorway at Nationals and the doorway reached out and stripped two mags off my belt -- I barely had enough ammo left to finish the stage.
Had I had fewer mags on my belt, that would have been ugly. As far as what I carry to the match -- I've typically got eight mags in my range bag. If it's a major, I'll usually bring a second set. I've always run the same mags in practice and the match -- it helps me to keep an eye on them and to trim any burrs that might develop. Glock mags. Just be careful if you do that to not mix up your mags, and to remember to remove the 11th round for an unloaded start -- otherwise you could find yourself in open.

I need to purchase some new gear, and was not sure how many mag pouches I would need? Any input? Click to expand Supermoto NES Member. I tried a match with 2 mags on my belt and I was loading at odd spots and loading from my pocket, so basically you can not have to many mags.
I used a Sig P It sucks following an Unlimited shooter. He just drills everything and may change a mag once! FrankD said:. Knuckle Dragger. You should come to the dark side I have 4 mag pouches, plus one the the pocket to start the stage. That gives you 50 rounds. I've always been able to reload anywhere I wanted to and still have an extra mag to fumble and drop on the ground. Yeah, but then you have to spend a lot of money on a finicky gun that won't run when you want it to, you spend a lot of money on magazines that don't feed, you have to learn to make all kinds of special ammunition in exotic calibers that your gun won't eat.
But after two years of effing around you're good to go. Joined Jul 28, Messages 5, Likes Lugnut said:. I use my G35 in Limited. Nothing fancy for ammo, equipment needed at all. And yeah- they just work! The Open guns I see some people with the same problems all the time.
I suspect they just don't know how to make good reloads. As far as mag pouches in production- 4 on the belt and for the start should get you good. You should never need more Ask me how I know. Supermoto said:. I have yet to see anyone that hasn't had a malfunction. Doesn't matter what you shoot everyones guns jams at some point.
