Magazine Carry

[RussC]

When you carry your Shield, do you find yourself carrying spare magazines?

Debating on if it's worth it to buy another spare magazine, double magazine holster for twice the price of a single. Then I have to send another magazine in separate to be refinished. I think one spare is enough for a light carry. That's just me. Just looking at other opinions and seeing what everyone else does.

Having the one spare, I just have to spend $28 + shipping on a magazine carrier.

To have 2, I have to purchase a magazine ($32) + $58 magazine carrier + $10 or so for refinishing and $10 for return shipping.

Basically it's a $75 difference. I am too OCD to let it sit.

I purchased an extra 8 round magazine for my Shield and removed the plastic spacer and carry in my opposite pocket in a Desantis pouch.

Not so much that I think I'll need the firepower but now I'll have two mags to malfunction & will still be able to reload.

With semi-autos; this is my reason as well.

i usually wear my 3 gun speed belt everwhere i go. that way i have 3 M&P9 20round mags (extensions), 2 30 round AR pmags, and 12 shotgun shells in 3 caddys.

or i just carry the Shield with one extra 8 rd mag in my left pocket in a desantis mag holder.
