How about a machine shop and chemistry equipment, maybe some hydroponics greenhouses, some basic ore refining equipment. Basically what I'd need to make my own guns and ammo. I'll be spending most of my money on that, and I'd probably work a lot for nothing. Be nice to have something to do though.
MichalSoukup1995 people shouldn’t know how much ammo you have. If you flaunt it so everyone and their mama can see the beautiful amounts of ammo you got that opens yourself up to things you probably don’t want. No one but my wife knows how much ammo I got.

Good exposition... As a Combat Engineer in the US Army, standard ammunition loadout for the M4/M16 was 7 thirty round magazines - of course, when you take into consideration that doctrine hammers into us that we fight in fireteams, 7 thirty round magazines should be sufficient. If you're in civil unrest with just yourself, the question becomes: How many can you practically carry before your ability to move is hampered. I would suggest that no one should be trying to fight alone. Yes, acquire as many magazines as you can - but build your fireteam. I cannot stress the importance of training a fireteam and working as a fireteam more.
We should always seek peace above all else. I suggest avoiding a potential fight at all costs but when someone brings it, give it to them like they've never seen before.
1) there is NO such thing as too much ammo or too many magazines 2) I was once accused (by CPS) of possessing and "Ungodly" amount of firearms and ammunition.....I asked the caseworker how much was "Godly"
I knew I had a problem when I watched this video and said....that's not that many magazines?!?! With that said, if having too many magazines is wrong, then I don't want to be right.
A similar thing happened to me involving a local law enforcement officer. I carried two extra mags for my Glock 19 in addition to the one in the gun and he was like "that's pretty concerning, that you carry that much ammo", and "even I don't carry that much when I'm off duty". I said to him "if I was in your shoes I'd be carrying as many mags as I physically could, with the way you guys are being treated around the country right now." No such thing as too much!
actuality we are allowed almost everything, the only thing is that the rifles must be semi-automatic and you must have a section 5 firearms licence, only most firearms shop owners have this licence. Or you can get a section 1 licence and get single shot rifles :P or a section 2 and get shotgun...... THE UK IS NOT GUN FREE !! :P
@PointyCheese: Same basic problem in Australia. Our firearms are heavily restricted (and that's fine; nobody here cares that we can't legally posses and operate an AR-15 except some avid gun-nuts who are out on the range most days of the week anyway). Acquiring a Cat.A or Cat.B isn't too difficult, provided you can prove you have the necessary safe storage and your magazines are limited to no more than five shots, or ten shots at maximum. Here, firearms have always been handled as tools rather than as weapons. That's just part of Australian gun culture. Hell, many of us would take a bow over a firearm any day, myself included. What the USA generally considers to be weapons of self-defence, we consider to be tools in everyday work. If you don't need a firearm for your work, you don';t need a firearm.
E. Ozzy Thanks. I love the preppers but, jmo, I think over thinking violent scenarios will eventually subconsciously create a incident. Too much power. I love the ability to protect myself and family but I'm not into hostile takeover.
An combat load is 210 rounds for the m4 which you'll blow threw quickly in the mad minute. So i would personally say you should have twice that amount. You should also stock up on extra springs for your magizines.
we had 5 days of Freedom in California. Although I had a stack of Grandfathered mags they were trying to renig & outlaw 17 years later. We stocked up on a lifetime supply for the whole family. price was not relevant when you only have 5 days to buy.
As a second thought, "way back there" in the early 1990's I bought a Winchester M1 carbine (then only $200) and was in the market for extra magazines. At that time, dealers were trying their best to unload commonplace 15 round mags for $1.00 each and I bought 40 of them covered with cosmoline and securely wrapped in heavy wax paper. Shortly thereafter came one of the well-known magazine bans and I noticed that the price of these jumped up to $10.00 apiece since these were suddenly classified as "high capacity." As we are often told, "Strike while the iron is hot" when it comes to stocking up on extra mags while they are available at a reasonable price. .
It is now Feb 2024. Look at the prices of 30 carbine magazines now. And in my area of Indiana 30 carbine ammo is around $1 per round. I bought an Iver Johnson 30 carbine, 30 carbine "Enforcer" pistol and a Ruger Blackhawk 30 carbine in 1980. I think each one was near $200. The prices for them now is ridiculous.
I love this guy. Seriously. Of all the prepper's on UA-cam this guy is my favorite. Down to earth, great advice, high quality videos and obviously a great American. I agree with him 100 percent. It may seem like a lot but if they are banned people will get hard up. The Clinton ban wiped out the pre-ban available mags and after a few years people were wanting them bad and paying a lot. I love the tip about the cheap Berretta mags. Has me thinking about getting a B-92. Sensible Prepper is the man. His Get Home Bag video motivated me to put one together as well.

Wow, its incredible listening to you back in 2011. Spot on information. I wish I would have found this earlier. Here in Colorado they changed all the magazine laws July 1st, 2013 but we will not abide by any unconstitutional 'laws', MOLAN LABE
I don't buy magazines based on any potential physical threat, I buy them based of Constitutional infringements placed on me by a tyranical government that may prevent me from replacing any worn out mags
Originally yeah. When New York first introduced the NY unsafe act a few years back. There was a time where all law enforcement (police, state troopers, sheriffs, and local federal government agents were only allowed to carry 7 and then 10 rounds. Then they went and changed it because over 100 thousand police officers became felons over night. And I mean literally over night...a Friday night. They pass unconstitutional laws at night when people are out partying, sleeping, or doing whatever and not paying attention. They specifically wrote the laws uncomprehentionable so that they could charge people for what ever and whenever they feel like it if they don’t like whatever was done.
buy a lever action .44 or .45 then go out and shoot it, but practice loading as you shoot without breaking contact between the stock and your shoulder. practice this while moving from cover to cover or just standing. you may never want an ar-15 again.
I would never argue with having lots of mags -- I have at least the minimums you recommend...and I have a lot of rifles and pistols (LOL). But I think it's really important for people to think about the fact that there's NO WAY anybody can get into "lots" of gunfights and come out alive. I think it's really important for people to think HARD about ways to avoid firing a SINGLE SHOT in a "grid down" situation -- not counting game, of course. Those who survive those times will be the people who are good at avoiding confrontations. Preppers need to think that issue over thoroughly.
Washington State chiming in, our standard cap mag ban goes into effect in two weeks. Purchased a hundred or more various brands and calibers in the past couple months. Rather have too many than not enough.
l believe in 'sets'. To me, 7 rifle (1 in the weapon and 6 on the vest is a set). 4 pistol (1 in the weapon and 3 on the vest). Then taking this numbers, I have 3 'sets' for every weapon. One set remains unopened in their packages as 'backup'. If I break or damage one, it gets replaced with one from the back up, and then I order a replacement for the back up set. My $0.02. YMMV.
+Bruce “Corelogik” Jenner I agree... 7 to 10 for main rifle, 4 to 6 for main pistol are more than enough (per shooter). For easier management, I generally try to always have 10 working mags. Ideally, I don't need more than 2 or 3 spare ones for backups since we can order a replacement as soon as one breaks.
Mathaius833 value of gun's and parts are worth more then money. a gun i bought for 300$ 2 years ago is worth 900$ to 1100$ now. what do you think is worth buying that increases that much in value?
Oregon militia Bravo Company... Platoons usually are required to keep 8 rifle magazines and 4 handgun magazines every platoon has a supplier and a medic if you need more magazines the supplier will supply you
DOCSAFETUBE Smokey mt militia Alpha company pred 1-1 here we keep about the same but our squads usually we have 2 ammo bearers 2 medics and at least one long range weapons specialist as well as people from the military that are good at multiple other weapons platforms.
An old video however, many points you have are still very valid. Some things I'd add to the overall question is how many mags do you need? For your long rifle.. basic load for a Soldier is 210 rounds.. as many can tell ya in a situation where, God forbid we ever need to use them as the founders warned us about, in practical experience you need at least double that capacity. In otherwords, min 420 rounds on your person, 20x30 round mags and 5 for your sidearm. Dont waste money with some crazy drum thing.. it will throw off the balance and add weight to the long gun.. proper practice and ability to change mags efficiently and quickly will vastly outweigh any benefit you theoretically get from a drum setup. God Bless to yall and keep your powder dry.
@@thestudenttechnician2826 Tovarisch, if you can throw my 11-something lb. Mosin like a spear, than the gulag has already strengthened you to levels far beyond the most of men and I salute you!
When the SHTF if you don't have a 1,000 rounds in mags you're not ready, my grandfather use to tell me stories as a young lad of his time during WWII in North Africa with the British Army, he would head out of camp in the mornings with his Tommy Gun with over 1,000 rounds and always run out, and have to scavenge off of his dead buddies bodies to make it back to camp alive.
I’m guessing that was in a vehicle......cause Thats at least 40 pounds just in ammo! Now add in weight of magazines or even drums, plus all his other gear? Also fully loaded into mags would equal 50mags or 20 drums
That seems rather a lot of ammo. At 1 3/4 pound per loaded 30 round magazine that going to be 60 lb just in the ammo for the Thompson, plus an extra 10 lb of weapon, not counting what they be expected to carry to support the Bren at 3lb a piece. The most I heard off before was 5 or 6 extra magazines worth and that was considered very heavy to lug around with all your extra kit. I am sure it is possible, but god bless the guy who decided to carry 60-70lbs of ammo around with him, since he going to need it. Especially when compared to most rifle men who be lucky to have a 100 rounds on them.
There are only 2 situations you can have too much ammunition on you. When you are either drowning or on fire. If I knew who I stole that from I would quote them...
Said by a person who has never been under fire and learned the value of the ability to move. Somebody weighed down by too much ammo makes a pretty easy target to hit.
A guy down the street from me buys out storage lockers. I buy every magazine I can find from him. I usually pay about 50 cents. Have gotten lots of 5.56 from him.
I like to go with the "video game standard" - 10 mags; 300 rounds for primary , 150, for secondary. For TOTAL rounds, 2k for each cal, but no more than the 10 mags while in the field
Before I even I watch this video I'm going to answer your question. "How many magazines do you need?" -- All of them. I recently broke down all my ammo into ammo cans and laughed when I realized exactly how much I have, thinking I've obviously gone overboard and how much money is tied up in it. But I still I have cans that are empty and I feel bad for them. Looks like I've still more ammo to buy.
5 років тому+1
When I realized how much ammo I had accumulated and how many different calibers I had to stock, I got rid of anything that doesn’t chamber 9mm, 5.56mm or .22LR .... the most common and available ammo in the US. Then I started a worksheet to keep track of my ammo inventory by caliber and age so I could use ammo on FIFO basis when I go to the range, always buying new ammo to replace the ammo Im going to use BEFORE I go to the range. After the Obama era ammo shortage and price hikes, never again will I be caught in short supply of ammo.
@ that's what i store, 9mm, .223/5.56, .22LR. that's the only firearms I own, keep it simple and uncomplicated. I do have one exception, .357magnum/.38special revolver that i just absolutely love. I do like your idea of tracking your ammo though. Wish i did, most of mines been broke down into bulk, similar grains/powder stored with similar.
I like the AK 73 to 75 round drum magazines, affordable and store forever. The 30 rounders for the AR and the AK can be had for between $6 and $8 per mag on sale so there is no reason not to have a bunch stocked up! I was buying my magazines as I purchased my ammo, but am rethinking to stock up on the magazines first now that I have a bunch Ready To Go just in case. But at a minimum, I feel you should have every round you intend to carry with you in a magazine RTG.
1st rule - never tell anyone every thing you have or where it is. 2nd - never keep every thing in the same place. 3rd - when trading in shtf (or any time)always keep somebody for yourself.also refer to rule 1. 4th - always to buy food and ammo in bulk.5th - remember op sec !
Thats why I escaped California and moved into a red state. No high cap bans. No 10 day wait. No stupid approved list. No 1 gun a month. No background checks for ammo. Wow. What a change. Now get tbis. Constutional carry! No permit to ocaknooen orn concealed. I did get a CCW to cover me in 37 other states.
These unconstitutional high capacity magazine bans make no sense. NY,NJ,CT,California to name a few are violating our rights. Common use magazines are 15 rounds for most semi auto hand guns and semi auto rifles are 30 round magazines. Yet we are only allowed 10 round magazines.
here is my setup for magazines for my SIG pistol: I have one fully loaded mag in my gun with +1 in the chamber, 2 mags in a double pistol mag pouch on my belt, 3 mags in my car for anything i may do on the go, and 3 mags in my house in my room in my desk for home defense or target practice. mags anywhere anytime any reason. always be prepared.
My dads under the impression that you only need 3-4 mags but I’m almost total polar opposite. I have my back stash of quite a few mags, he’s only got 3 AR mags. Thinking about buying up mags still but keeping them in packages in the event of a total high capacity ban, like another Clinton era crime bill since they’ll definitely be going up in value.
During WROL/SHTF your magazines will likely wear out, get lost, broken, loaned out or stolen. It makes sense to have more magazines than what you will carry on your rig. Many, many more! Maybe it makes people feel good but a arbitrary number is just that. Whatever you can afford would be the goal(s). When you buy your rifle plan on buying: a simple 2 point sling, 6 quality magazines, a way to carry them(i.e. chest rig) and as much ammo as possible. Now you have a decent loadout and will be better off than 99% of the population. After that buy mags and ammo as you can afford them and be on the constant look out for good deals.
in a "grid down" situation, once lifeless bodies outline the perimeter of your property, intruders will go else where, so warn your neighbors, LOL. I agree with your 10/6 magazine rule.
iller If youre going for pistol mags. For rifle you can get Hex mags for the same price as a pmag online, and you can turn those hex mags into 30 rounders if you dont care about the laws that is for 1$ extra for a GI spring lol.
+jglitch0 haha nice, good point. Luckily I got a marine buddy who gives me gi mags sometimes. The springs are usually shit but like you say, just buy a new set and put em in. Nice to have just in case
Jared Hunnicutt Well some of us dont want to run or dont have a choice, me i dont have a choice because ill be here for 5 months for boot camp and SOI.
I got 18 of them AK steel military surplus 30rd magazibe, and 2 of the bakelite 30rd mag and i got two Korean made 75rd drum mag too and i got 1 hungarian tanker 20rd too. That all i got for my AK47
Vincent Hollaway yeah, but govt would, so would those neigbours who doesnt like guns or hate when you shoot your "assult rifles" in the sunday morning :P.
+Vincent Hollaway Damn, you know i dont now shit abut this stuff, bust for what do you need so many rounds for? I mean shit thats one shitload of mags dude. And being prepeared for WHAT? Zombies? Please tell me in my country we "prepare" by having a knife with us in bad areas at night :D
I went into my stack today to add a couple mags to my range bag. I stocked up 6-7 years ago and hadn't really looked since then. HOLY CRAP! I found 27 BX-25 10/22 mags, 40 PMAGS, 13 40 rd AK mags, and a bunch of other misc magazines. All new in the plastic. And a bucket with 1,240 rd of 5.56 on strippers I didn't know I had. I honestly forgot how deep I stacked.
For "fighting/shtf" weapons My personal opinion is 10 per rifle, 5 per pistol with an extra 10 and 5 respectively for range/practice use. Reality is that its around 4 per pistol and 5 per rifle. I made it a point to get a decent chest rig for every rifle I own since all of that gets expensive after outfitting the rifles with lights/optics. A decent carrier with surplus plates will still run $350-400 (sorry, steel plates are way too heavy) so I opt for a chest rig, decent holster, and some belt pouches.
When the Colorado magazine ban was about to take place in July, I prepared myself by purchasing magazines for all of my current and future rifles. Come to find out after the ban, the gun shops here in Colorado just gave the politicians the finger and were selling them anyways. I just bought 2 Glock .40 22 round mags from my local gun shop and they were selling the 9mm 30 rounders for 44 bucks.
Ok gun guys, why don't you try to save money and stick with only 3-4 different caliber guns? I'm Canadian (I know I'll get flack for that), but it makes more sense to have a SKS 7.62x39, AR .223 , 9mm pistol, and .22 LR. Part of prepping isn't having to take up a lot of space carrying a bunch of un-necessary weapons. Keep it simple no? (awaiting butt hurt from gun nuts)
it is a good sound idea,,, but some feel the need to over prep.... but that is alot of money that could be spent on the 3-4 basic weapons, and alot of other survival food and water.
TOTALLY agree! I'll even shorten your list a bit... Get your AR-15, and the .22LR bolt conversion (two guns down), pistol of choice (I prefer the 1911 frame .45, but I also have the conversion to fire .22LR), and a shotgun (hopefully some food will fly over). There you go 3 - 4 guns. Now take them apart, put 'em back together and get good at shooting and fixing them. More importantly though, think of where you're going to get food, water, and fuel to cook, then think long and hard about if you're going to be able to "defend" your resources when unarmed starving people come to take "your" resources.
Fuel is not a problem. I work in the oil and gas industry and know where every wellhead in Canada is located, as well as pipelines and such. Fuel sources and types will never be a problem. Knowledge is power.
MAGAzines like Ammo and Rifles I have more than I need, but not as much as I want. I want 25 X 30 rounds newer mags and 5 X 75 round drums per person. How does it feel to want? It's motivating, make me want to work harder to get it. I would buy like he said here and there on sale or a gun show. ---mww
Matt Festoff I feel your pain, the mags for H&K VP9 are about the same price. But that didn't stop me I ended up buying six extra mags, besides the three that came with the gun.
7:29 - This right here is the reason to prepare ahead of time. The "I may never have a chance to buy it again" rationale is what drives all of the hoarding and panic buying. It is a pretty understandable mindset when thinking of things that are precious to you, so no judgment here. But this is the mindset that almost everyone has when things look a bit dicey. Prepare when times are good. Don't wait for times to get bad before buying things that could save your life.
I bought 3 of the 33rd's also ...but I paid 210.00 for 3 at that time...who cares I have them, ...Heck, I've wasted more money on women who hated me.,
That's the truth! Lol!
amen to that,,,,,lol

There is really no downside to having too much ammo. There is a big downside to not having enough ammo.

There is one downside, it make you nice inviting target to a marauder.

An combat load is 210 rounds for the m4 which you'll blow threw quickly in the mad minute. So i would personally say you should have twice that amount. You should also stock up on extra springs for your magizines.
@Variant _ you might be able to get them off of cheaper thandirt.com or go to your local gunshop.
I had to sell all my rifles so I could buy more magazines.
No.
I sold all of my guns to buy more.Now I have 25 magazines and no guns.Have tons of ammo too.
@@shadwell749 Now you can sell some ammo for a profit, and buy a gun.
@@tallskinnygeek why not just sell all the mags and ammo so you can buy more guns?
This is a classic video I enjoy revisiting. You can never have too many mags
we had 5 days of Freedom in California. Although I had a stack of Grandfathered mags they were trying to renig & outlaw 17 years later. We stocked up on a lifetime supply for the whole family. price was not relevant when you only have 5 days to buy.
It's nice to get good news in CA for once. It was fun
👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Good for you!
I feel you I did the same...everything I think I could ever need and then some...
There's gonna be another one coming up soon !
As a second thought, "way back there" in the early 1990's I bought a Winchester M1 carbine (then only $200) and was in the market for extra magazines. At that time, dealers were trying their best to unload commonplace 15 round mags for $1.00 each and I bought 40 of them covered with cosmoline and securely wrapped in heavy wax paper. Shortly thereafter came one of the well-known magazine bans and I noticed that the price of these jumped up to $10.00 apiece since these were suddenly classified as "high capacity." As we are often told, "Strike while the iron is hot" when it comes to stocking up on extra mags while they are available at a reasonable price. .
It is now Feb 2024. Look at the prices of 30 carbine magazines now. And in my area of Indiana 30 carbine ammo is around $1 per round. I bought an Iver Johnson 30 carbine, 30 carbine "Enforcer" pistol and a Ruger Blackhawk 30 carbine in 1980. I think each one was near $200. The prices for them now is ridiculous.
Having gone thru the gun ban back in the 80's . I have always grabbed a few mags when ever possible .Still do it as I type :)))
where was that gun grab at?
I love this guy. Seriously. Of all the prepper's on UA-cam this guy is my favorite. Down to earth, great advice, high quality videos and obviously a great American. I agree with him 100 percent. It may seem like a lot but if they are banned people will get hard up. The Clinton ban wiped out the pre-ban available mags and after a few years people were wanting them bad and paying a lot. I love the tip about the cheap Berretta mags. Has me thinking about getting a B-92. Sensible Prepper is the man. His Get Home Bag video motivated me to put one together as well.
One of the first videos I watched when I Was 18 and purchased my ar15. Now I’m 23 with 8 firearms and counting haha! Love this channel
23 as well and 8 guns lol. That is cute.

Haha. We just had assault weapons ban scare. Fast forward to August 2022. 🤦♂️
Gun store: How many magazines do you need?
Me: Yes
As many as possible
I have stocked up with mags for hand guns and A.R.s some people would say I've got to many .I don't have enough.dont wait folks.
"how many mags do you need and I find everyone has an exact number so how many mags do you need to walk away"
My answer "More"
"This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future!
- Adolph Hitler, 1935
Magazines make good storage fore ammo.
I'd need at least another 1000 mags to store all my ammo. Thankfully ammo cans also work for that purpose
True and grabbing a fresh preloaded mag is much quicker than grabbing an ammo can.
Well said 👏
Good morning Don, this video should make a lot more sense to people now with the way the world is, cheers
Q:How many magazines do you need for a grid-down situation? A: Five Playboys minimum
Dude, just go digital. If you take the time to look for quality, you can find it. And keep it. All of it. Forever.
Probably want one of those solar panel charging bank deals.

That's a good point, but being lead-acid batteries, you should be able to recover them with no power, just give it more acid, if I remember correctly. I should look this stuff up actually, it's yet another important thing they don't teach you in school. We pay taxes for them to not teach our kids how to save their porn through an emp.
Wow, its incredible listening to you back in 2011. Spot on information. I wish I would have found this earlier. Here in Colorado they changed all the magazine laws July 1st, 2013 but we will not abide by any unconstitutional 'laws', MOLAN LABE
I don't buy magazines based on any potential physical threat, I buy them based of Constitutional infringements placed on me by a tyranical government that may prevent me from replacing any worn out mags
How come my nanny state restricts magazine capacity from the standard 30 to 10? Do you see cops or the military with hobbled 10-round magazines??
In Canada its 5 for rifles, 10 for pistols. ...usually. Don't end up like Canada.
Originally yeah. When New York first introduced the NY unsafe act a few years back. There was a time where all law enforcement (police, state troopers, sheriffs, and local federal government agents were only allowed to carry 7 and then 10 rounds. Then they went and changed it because over 100 thousand police officers became felons over night. And I mean literally over night...a Friday night. They pass unconstitutional laws at night when people are out partying, sleeping, or doing whatever and not paying attention. They specifically wrote the laws uncomprehentionable so that they could charge people for what ever and whenever they feel like it if they don’t like whatever was done.
Because you're not either of those I'm guessing
buy a lever action .44 or .45 then go out and shoot it, but practice loading as you shoot without breaking contact between the stock and your shoulder. practice this while moving from cover to cover or just standing.
you may never want an ar-15 again.
That's because the only people the government is interested in hobbling is us lowly citizens, the proletariat.
I would never argue with having lots of mags -- I have at least the minimums you recommend...and I have a lot of rifles and pistols (LOL). But I think it's really important for people to think about the fact that there's NO WAY anybody can get into "lots" of gunfights and come out alive. I think it's really important for people to think HARD about ways to avoid firing a SINGLE SHOT in a "grid down" situation -- not counting game, of course. Those who survive those times will be the people who are good at avoiding confrontations. Preppers need to think that issue over thoroughly.
+GetMeThere1 Great post.
Washington State chiming in, our standard cap mag ban goes into effect in two weeks. Purchased a hundred or more various brands and calibers in the past couple months. Rather have too many than not enough.
l believe in 'sets'. To me, 7 rifle (1 in the weapon and 6 on the vest is a set). 4 pistol (1 in the weapon and 3 on the vest).
Then taking this numbers, I have 3 'sets' for every weapon. One set remains unopened in their packages as 'backup'. If I break or damage one, it gets replaced with one from the back up, and then I order a replacement for the back up set.
My $0.02. YMMV.
+Bruce “Corelogik” Jenner very smart
+Bruce “Corelogik” Jenner I agree... 7 to 10 for main rifle, 4 to 6 for main pistol are more than enough (per shooter). For easier management, I generally try to always have 10 working mags. Ideally, I don't need more than 2 or 3 spare ones for backups since we can order a replacement as soon as one breaks.
I keep mags for 1000rds per-gun. Not per-cal, per-gun. It get costly but if shtf its worth it.
WHEN YOU THINK THAT YOU HAVE ENOUGH,DOUBLE THAT AMOUNT!!!!!
yes indeed
You can't have too much, only more than you can carry in one trip.
But then when I double it I’ll think that’s enough so then I’ll have to double it again to make it enough 😬😁🤠
I agree ... I don't think you can ever have too many!

An old video however, many points you have are still very valid. Some things I'd add to the overall question is how many mags do you need? For your long rifle.. basic load for a Soldier is 210 rounds.. as many can tell ya in a situation where, God forbid we ever need to use them as the founders warned us about, in practical experience you need at least double that capacity. In otherwords, min 420 rounds on your person, 20x30 round mags and 5 for your sidearm. Dont waste money with some crazy drum thing.. it will throw off the balance and add weight to the long gun.. proper practice and ability to change mags efficiently and quickly will vastly outweigh any benefit you theoretically get from a drum setup. God Bless to yall and keep your powder dry.

When the SHTF if you don't have a 1,000 rounds in mags you're not ready, my grandfather use to tell me stories as a young lad of his time during WWII in North Africa with the British Army, he would head out of camp in the mornings with his Tommy Gun with over 1,000 rounds and always run out, and have to scavenge off of his dead buddies bodies to make it back to camp alive.
Love your videos 50 ducks! You're a great guy. Hope people go visit you from here!
I’m guessing that was in a vehicle......cause Thats at least 40 pounds just in ammo! Now add in weight of magazines or even drums, plus all his other gear? Also fully loaded into mags would equal 50mags or 20 drums
Yeah, I'd stick with carrying straight ammo. He should have had plenty of time to reload his other magazines.
That seems rather a lot of ammo. At 1 3/4 pound per loaded 30 round magazine that going to be 60 lb just in the ammo for the Thompson, plus an extra 10 lb of weapon, not counting what they be expected to carry to support the Bren at 3lb a piece. The most I heard off before was 5 or 6 extra magazines worth and that was considered very heavy to lug around with all your extra kit. I am sure it is possible, but god bless the guy who decided to carry 60-70lbs of ammo around with him, since he going to need it. Especially when compared to most rifle men who be lucky to have a 100 rounds on them.
How much does a thousand rounds of 230 gr 45 acp ammo weigh?
Your comment at the very end speaks vo!umes! Speak the truff, brother! Another enlightening uplifting mazterpiece! Right on, right on!
There are only 2 situations you can have too much ammunition on you. When you are either drowning or on fire. If I knew who I stole that from I would quote them...
Maybe Thunder Ranch?
I’ve said tht befor ! If u wanna quote me it cool 😎
Sounds like a WW2 vet
Greatness!!!
Said by a person who has never been under fire and learned the value of the ability to move. Somebody weighed down by too much ammo makes a pretty easy target to hit.
I have about 400 ak mags in my collection.
well i guess when your a world class meth cook you can afford that kind of stuff
boy lol you answer to a 5 year comment
I have 60 and 4 drums
I have more bullshit tall tales than you. Oh.... and I have 5,000,000 AK mags and a Russian security guard to watch over them 24/7.
Is that all
More truth now more than ever. Virginia is a hot fire, and we're all watching, and listening.Thank you.
A guy down the street from me buys out storage lockers. I buy every magazine I can find from him. I usually pay about 50 cents. Have gotten lots of 5.56 from him.
I like to go with the "video game standard" - 10 mags; 300 rounds for primary , 150, for secondary. For TOTAL rounds, 2k for each cal, but no more than the 10 mags while in the field
Before I even I watch this video I'm going to answer your question. "How many magazines do you need?" -- All of them.
I recently broke down all my ammo into ammo cans and laughed when I realized exactly how much I have, thinking I've obviously gone overboard and how much money is tied up in it. But I still I have cans that are empty and I feel bad for them. Looks like I've still more ammo to buy.
When I realized how much ammo I had accumulated and how many different calibers I had to stock, I got rid of anything that doesn’t chamber 9mm, 5.56mm or .22LR .... the most common and available ammo in the US. Then I started a worksheet to keep track of my ammo inventory by caliber and age so I could use ammo on FIFO basis when I go to the range, always buying new ammo to replace the ammo Im going to use BEFORE I go to the range. After the Obama era ammo shortage and price hikes, never again will I be caught in short supply of ammo.
@ that's what i store, 9mm, .223/5.56, .22LR. that's the only firearms I own, keep it simple and uncomplicated. I do have one exception, .357magnum/.38special revolver that i just absolutely love. I do like your idea of tracking your ammo though. Wish i did, most of mines been broke down into bulk, similar grains/powder stored with similar.
I like the AK 73 to 75 round drum magazines, affordable and store forever.
The 30 rounders for the AR and the AK can be had for between $6 and $8 per mag on sale so there is no reason not to have a bunch stocked up!
I was buying my magazines as I purchased my ammo, but am rethinking to stock up on the magazines first now that I have a bunch Ready To Go just in case.
But at a minimum, I feel you should have every round you intend to carry with you in a magazine RTG.
30 per weapon for rifles 10 for pistols minimum. Yes i survived the awb.
SaginawGS The Next AWB will probably mean getting mags becoming an impossible endeavour.
@@player4life11111 The next AWB will be the next civil war/ revolution
There was a ban. Interesting.
1st rule - never tell anyone every thing you have or where it is. 2nd - never keep every thing in the same place. 3rd - when trading in shtf (or any time)always keep somebody for yourself.also refer to rule 1. 4th - always to buy food and ammo in bulk.5th - remember op sec !
I've got a shotgun, a rifle and a 4-wheel drive...
4WD is worthless if there's a fuel shortage.
Having many back up mags also is great for when you go out and train. Beats reloading often during training

GETTING READY TO FIND OUT
Battle field pick up bro...svanger mode for me
Gun stores are completely sold out of every fire arm where I live in san diego due to this Covid agenda
I'm jealous of your 33 round glock factory mags.... I can only dream of those out here in California.
Dream of just buying ammo these days out here in California (LA) !!!
Thats why I escaped California and moved into a red state. No high cap bans. No 10 day wait. No stupid approved list. No 1 gun a month. No background checks for ammo. Wow. What a change. Now get tbis. Constutional carry! No permit to ocaknooen orn concealed. I did get a CCW to cover me in 37 other states.
There's no way you guys in California DON'T buy mags in other states and take em home.
I litterly just loaded four 33 rd mags, absolute nightmare to load past 20 rounds, I can't feel my thumbs and couldnt get past 29 or 30 in each lol
These unconstitutional high capacity magazine bans make no sense. NY,NJ,CT,California to name a few are violating our rights. Common use magazines are 15 rounds for most semi auto hand guns and semi auto rifles are 30 round magazines. Yet we are only allowed 10 round magazines.
This video aged like fine wine. Thank you for sharing your advice and wisdom.
Buy more ammo and keep mags loaded !
here is my setup for magazines for my SIG pistol: I have one fully loaded mag in my gun with +1 in the chamber, 2 mags in a double pistol mag pouch on my belt, 3 mags in my car for anything i may do on the go, and 3 mags in my house in my room in my desk for home defense or target practice. mags anywhere anytime any reason. always be prepared.
Who ever said ...If I only didn't have so much Ammo or mags...I'm thinkin nobody.
Except maybe the 640 Commies that thumb down this vid.

do you realize Trump is a commie sympathizer! He has sold out to Russia; they own him.
"How Good Of A Shot Are You" is probably a very significant factor to include in the Clip/Bullet equation!!
Why do we need more magazines? They make me happy..I like happy
My dads under the impression that you only need 3-4 mags but I’m almost total polar opposite. I have my back stash of quite a few mags, he’s only got 3 AR mags. Thinking about buying up mags still but keeping them in packages in the event of a total high capacity ban, like another Clinton era crime bill since they’ll definitely be going up in value.
Too many forgot about Clinton.
Good on you for stocking up. I have a family member who doesn't, so I have to take up the slack.
During WROL/SHTF your magazines will likely wear out, get lost, broken, loaned out or stolen. It makes sense to have more magazines than what you will carry on your rig. Many, many more!
Maybe it makes people feel good but a arbitrary number is just that. Whatever you can afford would be the goal(s). When you buy your rifle plan on buying: a simple 2 point sling, 6 quality magazines, a way to carry them(i.e. chest rig) and as much ammo as possible. Now you have a decent loadout and will be better off than 99% of the population. After that buy mags and ammo as you can afford them and be on the constant look out for good deals.

I went into my stack today to add a couple mags to my range bag. I stocked up 6-7 years ago and hadn't really looked since then. HOLY CRAP! I found 27 BX-25 10/22 mags, 40 PMAGS, 13 40 rd AK mags, and a bunch of other misc magazines. All new in the plastic. And a bucket with 1,240 rd of 5.56 on strippers I didn't know I had. I honestly forgot how deep I stacked.
For "fighting/shtf" weapons My personal opinion is 10 per rifle, 5 per pistol with an extra 10 and 5 respectively for range/practice use.
Reality is that its around 4 per pistol and 5 per rifle. I made it a point to get a decent chest rig for every rifle I own since all of that gets expensive after outfitting the rifles with lights/optics. A decent carrier with surplus plates will still run $350-400 (sorry, steel plates are way too heavy) so I opt for a chest rig, decent holster, and some belt pouches.
with a double stacker, you can (and should) easily run 8 rifle mags.
***** Yeah you can. My plate carrier I can run 6 and I can have 3 more on my belt. However, plates are fairly heavy and all those mags add up fast.

Rhaegar Targaryen you think you can only learn fighting tactics in the military.......? you're very naive.
When the Colorado magazine ban was about to take place in July, I prepared myself by purchasing magazines for all of my current and future rifles. Come to find out after the ban, the gun shops here in Colorado just gave the politicians the finger and were selling them anyways. I just bought 2 Glock .40 22 round mags from my local gun shop and they were selling the 9mm 30 rounders for 44 bucks.
Your crystal ball works great here in the year 2022
Ok gun guys, why don't you try to save money and stick with only 3-4 different caliber guns? I'm Canadian (I know I'll get flack for that), but it makes more sense to have a SKS 7.62x39, AR .223 , 9mm pistol, and .22 LR. Part of prepping isn't having to take up a lot of space carrying a bunch of un-necessary weapons. Keep it simple no?
(awaiting butt hurt from gun nuts)
it is a good sound idea,,, but some feel the need to over prep.... but that is alot of money that could be spent on the 3-4 basic weapons, and alot of other survival food and water.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have a savage in .338, but dang. This cowboy can't afford to miss!
No shit,,, money is hard to come by these days,,,, gotta take what you can get, and accessorize it as you go.
TOTALLY agree! I'll even shorten your list a bit... Get your AR-15, and the .22LR bolt conversion (two guns down), pistol of choice (I prefer the 1911 frame .45, but I also have the conversion to fire .22LR), and a shotgun (hopefully some food will fly over).
There you go 3 - 4 guns. Now take them apart, put 'em back together and get good at shooting and fixing them.
More importantly though, think of where you're going to get food, water, and fuel to cook, then think long and hard about if you're going to be able to "defend" your resources when unarmed starving people come to take "your" resources.
Fuel is not a problem. I work in the oil and gas industry and know where every wellhead in Canada is located, as well as pipelines and such. Fuel sources and types
will never be a problem. Knowledge is power.

The correct answer to "how many magazines do you need" is always "more".
Very very true, God Bless America
The answer is "More"
When I carry on a daily basis, I carry anywhere from 4 to 6 magazines
Told my wife I need more magazines. She asked why I’m reading so much! 😂
Its better too have it and not need it, then too need it and not have it!, I have a 100 magazines for my AKM-47 and AK-74...

+Tommy Stone "Its better too have it and not need it, then too need it and not have it! " +1 That's why I have 6 tool boxes full of tools.
+Tommy Stone Most important survival thing is Friends. So maybe sell 50 magazines and do some party :)
I’m on a budget out here so if I could have 5 per gun I’d be happy
5 magazines is still good. Have a really good stethoscope though. You will need that a lot more to save a life than your extra magazines.
7:29 - This right here is the reason to prepare ahead of time. The "I may never have a chance to buy it again" rationale is what drives all of the hoarding and panic buying. It is a pretty understandable mindset when thinking of things that are precious to you, so no judgment here. But this is the mindset that almost everyone has when things look a bit dicey. Prepare when times are good. Don't wait for times to get bad before buying things that could save your life.
