I rarely carry, but if I do it's a PPS with 7 rounds and no spare magazine.
I carry every day, Glock 23 or 27, but I normally do not carry a spare magazine. I do however keep one in the car.

When I do carry, which hasn't been for a while, I'd always have a spare. As other said most malfs are ammo or mag caused and most can be quickly with a fresh mag. Plus if I was putting on the holster the mag pouch was just one more easy step and it wasn't any harder to conceal.

I carry a G20, with 1 spar mag. If 30 rounds of 10mm will not be enough, I'm in very deep shit. I will be working my way to my vehicle for a rifle.
I used to carry a reload. Got tied of the Fricke Archangel mag pouch shifting. Waiting on a DSG AIWB mag pouch. Those new JMs look pretty cool too.
In reality I'm not worried about it. Carrying a fixed blade is way more important, and I'm carrying that where my reload was. You're not going to do a reload with someone on top of you anyways.

I carry every day. If the mag for the pistol I'm carrying that day holds 10 rounds or more, I carry one spare, if less than 10, then I carry two.

I carry everyday, and don't typically carry a spare mag when I'm around town here at home. Usually it's a G19, a PPQ or P2000, and there's a spare mag of each in the console of the car.
When I'm on a road trip to visit the kids/grandkids or a hunting trip, I'll always carry a spare in a mag holder on my belt, with more in the car.

This is the main reason why I carry one reload with a semi auto. I seriously doubt I will ever need more than the 15 to 17 already in the pistol. But I always carry a reload just in case.
I don't understand the point of having a spare mag and leaving it in the car. Makes absolutely zero sense. May as well leave it at home.
I also always carry a speedloader in a belt pouch when I carry a revolver instead of a semi.
