This last summer I was starting to develop a real problem. I just had too many magazines. Now I know many of you are thinking "you can never have too many magazines!" While I didn't have so many that I wanted to get rid of some, I was starting to have trouble keeping track of them. I have several of the same gun but in differant calibes(Steyr M9, M40, XD9, and XD40) these were the guns I was having the most trouble with. I had a few trips to the range that were screwed up by me not having the correct magazines.
I decided that something had to be done. I picked up some round orange and green stickers at Walmart. I then cut each circle in half, I assigned green to .40 S&W and orange to 9mm magazines. Then I took my stickers over to my buddies house and convinced him to do the same thing to all of his mags. Since we tend to shoot with eachother I thought it would be better if were both organized. I am sure I am not the first person to think of marking their mags, but it is a good idea that I thought might be helpful to some of the other people here on THR. I will post pics later today.
