Real talk, when do you bring a magazine? I've never been in a mindspace where I think the next 10 are going to make enough difference to keep on me.

I operate under the "your sidearm is only to clear the way to your long gun" mentality.

What am I missing? For reference I've been locked down at work due to a mass shooting and also once for a manhunt for murder suspect, but we don't really have active gangs in the area.

What's the move? Do I need a second mag? Talk me into it.

The main reason you carry a spare magazine is not for the extra rounds.

In a self loading firearm, the magazine is the weakest link and the most likely to induce a malfunction.

The easiest way to fix a malfunction is to drop the magazine and insert a new one.

2&3 are Absolutely valid.

1) the less you miss, the fewer you need...4) I'm fine. 5) I've shot competitively, but not combatatively. I think I'd best an autist but lose against a guerilla.

I appreciate the insight.

The main rationale for it I've seen that makes sense is to have a backup in case you run into a magazine-induced jam. That said I still don't carry one because the odds of that happening are low if you use good mags.
