I started taking inventory of all my stuff, and realized that I am way short on AR15 mags. (I have 5 of them)

How many do you guys keep?
How many are loaded?
How much of your ammo is stored in the box, how much is stored in mags ready to use?

My stuff's at home and I'm at school, so my mags are never loaded and the ammo is in the factory box.

I'm at school too, but I've got my 16in RRA with me. I brought eleven 30 round mags and ten 20 round mags, just in case that whole Dawn of the Dead thing happens. And yes, I'm paranoid.

I only have 6.



ETA: 5 are loaded and in my patrol car (4 with Hornady TAP, and 1 with Rem SP), I keep one unloaded as a "range mag".

P.S.-I'm expecting UPS to show up this week with my new Beta C-Mag!

Just counted 18 USGI mags. Im going to buy a dozen more. I plan to keep 25 loaded for shtf, and then have 5 range mags.

Right now, I have loaded only five. Mostly 62g, with some 64g power points mixed in. But pretty soon Im going to get my shit together.

25 USGI Mags (only about 11 of them with green followers... need to get on the ball and upgrade the others!)

1 is loaded with soft tip 77gr ammo, some home loads a buddy of mine did (they shoot great, and that mag sits on my night stand should I have to rapidly deploy the AR for some reason)

I have 48 USGI mags, all with either green or orange followers

20 of those are loaded with XM193.
2 are range mags.

All my rifle ammo (about 6000 rounds) not in mags are stored in either the factory boxes or ammo cans.

Ten or eleven 30s, and six 20s. Not enough, especially compared to some of the mag whores here!

More than I care to count......

Seriously about 10 per rifle.  Always still could get more..

But all the ARs and mags were lost in a tragic boating accident....
