10 Round Mag is it good enough

[sargents1]

If you are in a situation where 10 shots is not enough then you may already be screwed. I would not feel under gunned with a m1911 and 8 rounds of .45acp. Or with a .40S&W and 10rounds.

Some of the scenarios put forward in these arguments about mag capacity are kind of far fetched, though not unheard of.

That being said, my 9mm holds 15+. More chances to hit the bad guy = good.

The main thing is that when trouble arrives at your doorstep you have your gun, whatever variety it is, ready, loaded, functional and within arm's reach.

Damn, I need a new CCW!

Why sure, ten rounds is enough, and perhaps real shooters only need two rounds maximum in their rifles,,,,
I am an American, I don't appreciate anyone deciding what constitutes enough is enough for me just because some insane child uses a gun to kill other humans which happens every day of the week somewhere in America and doesn't generate this much controversy.
Why?
Because those dead people aren't elected officials who apparently hold some higher authority than all the rest of the souls walking around my great country and apparently we cannot be trusted to play niced around these hallowed beings so our rights as citizens should be stepped upon,,,,

Don't fall into the trap of "common sense gun laws".

I like my mags to have the capacity intended by the manufacturer. Things seem to work better that way. Don't need any help from the government to help me decide.

I have more distaste for so called "gun owners" that support any form of gun control than Sarah Brady herself.

Use what your carry gun will hold, that will most likely be 10 or less in most cases unless you carry a gun with a grip long enough to make it look like you have a tail sticking out the back of your shirt than heck fill it with a 30 round mag.

And history is not one incident last week or last year or last decade.
Who's the fool? Anyone who bases decisions on one or two incidents.

As opposed to basing decisions on nothing but imagination?

I have no problem concealing a full size M&P 40, XD-40 or similar. All it takes is the right holster.

Who advocates that??

I would say just carry what you shoot the best and carry most comfortably....I wouldn't be overly concerned with round capacity.

That being said, if you have an option to carry a bigger magazine while keeping the same size (not sticking out of the grip) I would certainly do so.
