How many magazines do you own?

[Majorlk]

Wow I must have the most MP 15 22 mags then!
I have 22 25rd mags

I also consider my mp 15 22 a real home defense weapon and not a plenker.
I have a 30/30 but if the **** ever hits the fan i'm grabbing for the MP15 22

Real lousy choice for a home defense firearm (I don't like to use the term weapon) unless that is all you have. The .30-30 isn't much better from a handling standpoint. The idea is to STOP the intruder and it will take at least a dozen Center-of-Mass HITS with a .22 to begin to do that. Any self-defense class will tell you that a better house gun is a 12-gauge with 00 buckshot or, if you are a practiced shooter, a 9mm or larger handgun.

It is better than a knife or a stick but I agree with majorlk on this one. To each is own i guess.

Good thing you have tons of magazines though. twenty-two is a lot You can have an entire box of 550 federal bulk in them all. Good times at the range i bet.

So that's half a mag with 13 more to spew if he has a buddy...

I said AT LEAST. A .22 of any kind would be my absolutely last choice. I'll take my 12-gauge or .40 S&W any day. It's obvious that anyone who considers any .22 as an adequate house gun has no self-defense training.

I have 10 but I will probably want more after today.

Well just for the ARs:
Spike Tactical AR15 5.56 #1 : 8 10/30rd* mags, 4 10rd mags.
Spike Tactical AR15 5.56 #2 : 4 10/30rd* mags, 2 10rd mags.
S&W M&P 15/22 22lr : 8 10/25rd* mags, 2 10rd mags.

* : Since California's high cap laws, these are modified 30rd mags re-designed to only 10 rds. Unable to return back to high caps. Yes, it's sad to be in California.. So I just have to do mag changes faster than the norm....We may not have a lot, but we sure can change them fast.

I have 8 because here in CA you can only have 10 rounders. Now if I can just learn how to load correctly to prevent jams I'll be set.

Follow the directions in the owner's manual. It works every time.

I don't know how many, but it's not enough. I've been places and seen things but I've never seen "enough"....
