Well, maybe you have a scenario like the one Larry was talking about to
suggest to us. I feel quite comfortable with the standard magazine in my
..45
ACP, and a couple of loaded ones in my pocket. How many do you need to
feel
comfortable? Which hoard is out to get YOU?

Gee Ed...7 in the mag, one up the spout, and 14 more in your pockets?
Thats 22 rounds Ed..more than the magazine in the average "assault
rifle"

What hoard is out to get YOU?

Here's what you're missing, Gunner: The only time I've ever walked around
with three loaded magazines was when I was shooting action pistol; nobody is
likely to complain about 7-round magazines, and it isn't likely to garner
too many news stories; the loaded gun makes boring photos.

If you don't get that, then you don't get it at all. People who don't get it
are the ones who say, "what's the big deal about 20-round magazines?," and
they actually mean it.
