Organizing your pistol magazines.... What do you use?

[Dr.Rob]

I found these to be quite useful for magazines and accessories:

Seven magazine pouches, two larger pockets on the back that I can store several more magazines or pouches or cleaning kit or competition holster. Handy for a shooting match, or if you want to lock up your hi-cap magazines in one place.

If you have multiple hi cap pistols its easy enough to sew a label or hot iron an ID patch on the pouch.

I use a rolling Toolbox for mags and other accessories.

Lots of drawers to hold lots of things and the drawers lock.

Here is a pic of some drawers with extra grips:


Mags are lower down.

Like someone said, I use Walmart plastic tackle boxes; V-Shield impregnated, clear, pocket-size adjustable, they're perfect.

Just got the attached.

I use a plastic tub and ziplock sandwich bags. I write on the bag what's in them. If I buy a gun with a box that has an extra mag, I normally leave the 2nd mag (and anything I remove from the gun, like grips or any parts I replace that were factory parts) in the factory box, so that when the day comes to reunite the gun with its original parts, I know where everything is.

wacki: midwayusa order I take it? 6-mag is their house brand. others are california competition works bags. am I right?

i'm liking the 6-mag midway holder as well as the CCW bags. problem is I'm HATING the price, when the 7-mag midway pistol/range bag is cheaper. problem again though is it's bigger/bulkier. an inner component of my psyche abhores paying more for a perceived less, especially since this is primarily in-safe storage.

I use a CED magazine pouch for my M&P mags which is the gun I shoot most frequently:

For my other guns, I keep one magazine actually in the gun, and for extras I keep a plastic box/container for each one that has holsters and mags and is marked with the gun that it goes to.

Those are what I use...

If you search on MidwayUSA, you can get them in different sizes and colors. I have a few, and when you get to certain single stacked magazines, you can fit additional ones in the top fold (my S&W 1006 magazines are like that).

Only thing that stinks is if you have similar magazines. I once grabbed my .45 PX4 magazines instead of my 9mm... so now I check before I close the safe.

 

[weblance]

Ive been dealing with this also, lately. I have 100 or so extra magazines strewn between pistol cases, Cali Competition magazine pouches, and several range bags. I think a small(12x6x6, or slightly larger) plastic tool box might just be the answer.

Cheap generic Ziploc style plastic bags.

Yep. Every $10 you spend on stupid bags to organize your mags is basically a box of ammo wasted.

Yes to all. My recommendation is to stick with the midwayusa pouches. I'm not sure but I think the california competition might be a hair heavier fabric. Both are excellent quality. Midway has shoulder straps and MOLLE loops on the back. California Competition is just a pouch.

Midway USA bags are a killer deal.

meh... I really want something to "grab 'n go". The $11 midway bags are perfect for either regular life or the Zombie Apocalypse.

 

[leadcounsel]

If you really need a pistol and magazine bag, this one might be slimmer than the Midway one, for the same price, $10. I have a couple and they are good quality nylon/cordura type material, and soft interior, with elastic mag holders for any pistol mags. And it has a Velcro square for your morale patch or name tape or whatnot.

I only have 3 different types of mags, full size Glock 9mm, 10/22 & AR. What ever isn't with the gun or in my range box is stored in a high tech cardboard box.

 

[arspeukinen]

I made a wooden wall shelf for pistol magazines out of an old wine box.

I use these bags from LA Police Gear @ $10 ea I have one for each pistol.

Note: I've yet to find a company with better customer service than LA Police Gear, there's always great deals as well
