Hi, my name is James and i am a mag whore...
25 is the minimum i want.

No idea how many AR mags i have.

22 P220-10 mags and i dont even have posession of the gun where i am.

15 Banshee MK-10 mags and i will double that soon, again on a gun not in my possession at this time.

I have 20 1911 10mm mags and i dont own a 10mm 1911.

I only have 5 P6 mags and its causing me to lose sleep at night.

Dont know why but I am more nervous of mags disappearing than ammo.

Use the P220 mags as Christmas tree decorations.

I've been using the term "Mag Whore" to describe myself for a long time.

I try to buy a couple of mags every payday. But, it was always pistol mags. Lately, I started whoring for 10 -.22, AR and Mini-14 mags, so I have a lot of catching up to do.

Anything over 200, I stop counting. That's the case with the P228 and the AR. Big Grin

I'm Ryan and I too am a mag ho.
I have cases stacked upon cases of ammo stored up but all of it will only load all of my mags a few times. Big Grin
I could literally re-enact John Wick 3 without having to reload a mag.

Recently, I found a box in my barn upstate with 6 mags for the 10 -.22. I probably left them there in the 80's. All the mags were loaded. And still work perfectly.

I have four mags for my 2011 STI and at $65(when I bought them) was enough for me....

I have 6 G19 mags, but I have two of the guns...

I have 3 mags for my P226...

3 1911s...

Got about ten mags for Ruger 22-45...

And about 20 AR mags....

Seems like I need to step up my game

I suppose I could be called the same. Just rec'd an order with 20 misc hicap mags. Some of them, I don't even own guns for, but, hopefully will in the future.

High cap mags are scary so government, if you’re watching, just know I had a bonfire with all my high cap mags after you informed me how dangerous they were. No need check here

I've got about 15 mags for a P220, 10 mags for a 2011, and 5 magazines for a Glock.

All of them are in 38 Super. Big Grin

Amen.

As someone who was came of age during the ban and had to scrimp and save as an 18-19 year old to get a "preban" AR in the late 90s, I'm not going to get caught flat footed again.

My only issue is my love of boating and the accidents I keep having.

Whore-der?

Eh, probably calling myself 'mag junkie connoisseur' is a more appropriate description. Selective "collecting". In less than four months of ownership of my SP5K-PDW, I'm already up to 12 new production mags and have ordered a dozen more. Took me three years to get the first dozen with my MPX. There's just something so exquisite about those HK mags that makes me...no...compels me to want to try to corner the market on them... Razz
