Had some good luck at todays Gun show. I found a guy selling brand new GI pre-ban 30 round mags. As some of you know I just got a new SR-556. The mags were just what I was hoping to find. I picked up 4, but now I question...How many is enough?

Consider that ammo not in magazines is useless if SHTF in your neighborhood, town, city, etc... and buy mags accordingly.

My thought process is at least 10 STANDARD capacity mags per weapon platform (AR).
My boss on the other hand has about 20 standard capacity mags per AR and they are always loaded to 28rnds stored in ammo cans.
Basic load (7 mags), per firearm at minimum.
After that... there is no such thing as 'too many".
I've heard others mention "28 rounds" before, but never understood why. I have never had a single issue with any of my pre-ban Colts running the full 30 round capacity. Do some mags have issues with binding, or other feeding issues when fully loaded?
Is your safe full? If you answered "no", you don't have enough!

If you cant count them then you dont have enough
Difficult to seat a GI type mag with 30 rounds on a closed bolt.
