At least 10. We in Colorado learned this the hard way.
You use them a lot, even Pmags fail.

Depends on how you define "need", sounds to me you only needed 5 on that day.
Considering the fact 30 that round mags could be banned one day, I plan to slowly accumulate more than I need, but fewer than I would like to have.
10, they wear out.
As it should be.I think our kids (in my case grandkids) are going to end up with a lot (and I mean a lot!) of mags.
The optional so-called "dust covers" push the top round down slightly take all the force off the plastic magazine lips.10, they wear out.
Hit the button before I was done. For me that number is 5 per rifle and three per pistol.
You will know how much is good for you when you look at what you have and feel comfortable with that amount keeping in mind that a lot of politicians want to ban them, have succeeded nationally in the past, and are currently successful in many states
Ten magazines and a thousand rounds of ammo per gun was recommended to me decades ago...
i say as many as you want by golly. i thought i was doin good with 5 perMany people will say that they think that having 1000 rounds of ammo per rifle is a reasonable amount to have on hand. I tend to agree.
I'm curious about mags, specifically AR mags. How many mags per rifle would you consider prudent? I have 3 ARs and 32 mags. Seems like a lot but not having to load mags at the range is nice. Also, the threat of having some sort of federal ban on mags with higher capacities is never going to go away. Am I crazy thinking that 20 - 30 mags per rifle is prudent?
What say you?
