Having grudgingly accepted the logic of carrying a G19 and a couple spare magazines a thought has occurred to me: Do you carry consistent ammunition in all three magazines?
I'm comfortable with Federal HST 124 grain ammunition as my "common" load and would carry this both in the magazine in the firearm and the "first out" reload.
But I have been mulling over the situations in which I would need to be able to get to the third magazine and still be "upright" and able to do it. Virtually every one of these situations involve cover. I am toying with the idea of loading the last magazine with Underwood Extreme Penetrator. Yeh I know different ammunition might handle differently but it will also perform differently. Assume the same function testing as with the Federal and maintaining proficiency with the particular load.
Of course this does go against my current "keep it simple" theory that I have been trying to impart in my daily activities.
Thoughts?
