So for you guys that keep an AR in the trunk.
I was wondering how many magazine you carry for the gun?

Thanks

If I have my AR with me, I usually have one in the gun and two spares in the center.

There is an "oh shit" back pack in the back of my Explorer that has a couple loaded Glock mags and one loaded AR mag, but it also has a lot of other stuff in it so I can't put too much gun stuff in there, it's more of a survival bag with enough to get me through a couple days. I consider whatever is in the bag as non existant so that I don't leech out of the bag for stuff and then forget to replace it so I also carry a couple spare mags for my carry gun in the Glove box and center console. Call it paranoid if you want, I don't care.

I was going to say 87, but I was too slow

2-3 would be the best I would think.

When I had a trunk gun it was a low cost AK(Romanian G kit I assembled)
with a Chinese chest rig containing three mags. So four 30 round mags
total.

7 mags.  One in the rifle, six in the pouch.  

Galati International GLMP30.  It holds six 30 rnd M16 or Mini-14 mags.  Shoulder strap, D-rings on each corner, velcro flaps over each mag.  Each mag in a separate slot, so they don't rattle.  I've used these pouches for many years, and have some that are at least 20 yrs old, maybe older.

http://www.galatiinternational.com/product/GLMP30.html





Let the strap out via the adjuster.  To use, grab your rifle with your right hand, and at the same time grab the pouch at the middle of the strap, putting it over your head and let your arm go through, while shifting the pouch to fall at your left hip.  One fast and easy motion.

I WAS doing a pretty good job of ignoring a story whilst browsing arfcom... And Now I'm explaining to my GF, exactly what's so damn funny. Thank you.


ETA: something relevant- I keep 3 extra mags for my carry piece. If I can make it home with that- then it wasn't gonna happen.

When I bother with a "truck gun" I use a S&W M59 gripped Kel-Tec Sub-9 (all metal receiver/sights predecessor to the KT-S2K) w/4 - 20 round Meggar mags. It fits nicely in a old GI tool bag and it's not in the way. The carbine's mags also work in my KT-P11.

It may have worked in the metal Sub-9 but I think it would be a bridge too far in the current blow-back poly S2K. I have a G17 gripped S2K also but the Sub-9 is built much better. They did not sell that many Sub-9s what with the $700.00 price tag so it was redesigned as the poly framed S2K.

+1  I have a Glock 29 with a 10 rounder in it and two 15 round mags from a Glock 20 beside it.  Those forty rounds of 10mm should afford me the time/space to get the hell outta there.
