I am amazed you would suggest that carrying a spare magazine for a semi-auto is not a smart idea. At the very least, it gives the person the opportunity to bring his/her gun back up to full capacity after an incident has taken place. In reality, I have seen so many actual videos of "armed perps" turning around and running the other way as soon as the armed citizen fires a shot or two in resistance, that there is very good reason to think enough time might very well exist for the citizen to perform a tactical reload and if need be, perhaps even a slide-lock reload, in a lot of these situations.
