    I keep the mags in different boxes (separated by caliber and capacity). When I go to the range I separate them in my bag and only shoot one gun type at a time. Realistically for range purposes it's probably fine (I've shot 9mm from .40 mags and vice versa), provided the mags aren't pre-loaded with ammo.

    For carry purposes of course check and recheck, just like you'd regularly check your carry ammo.

    That way all your mags interchange with all your handguns.

    Same with 5.56mm AR15s.
    This.

    I consolidated many moons ago.

    I just box them all separately in my safe. I've got a box for 9, .40 and .45.

    Then, I pay attention to what I'm doing when shooting.

    How was the condition of yours?

    Did it come with night sights?
    Overall I'd rate it at good to very good.

    A little speckling of rust on the slide serrations.

    Slide stop was worn silver, front sights (regular Glock) was worn as well.

    A little dirty, probably a range loaner gun for the department I'd assume. I cleaned it good, put in a - connector, extended slide stop, and put it in the safe - more as a contingency for ammo shortages or to put a 9MM aftermarket slide on at some point. Frame is clean, not worn down at all. One mag like new, one mag a little beat up.

    For $329 delivered, it was a deal IMO. I grabbed a couple 40 mags from Botach for $20/ea. Not going to replace the sight until it really needs to be used.

    I'd revise the first part to 9mm Glocks, but to also include the 17 (and maybe the 34 if you're competing). I got rid of my.40's a few years back. It was too close to the 9mm to justify the logistical burden, cost and risk of a kaboom.

    As for the 5.56 vs .300 BLK, the .300 is sufficiently different to justify the hassle.

    The basepad Idea is probably the best have a different color or you could run only say the glock pmags for your 19 or the ets clear mags. Make the mags as distinct as possible.

    Came across these, I'll either order a few or krylon the 40 baseplates, combined with colorfilling the .40 etching I think that's enough to justify calling myself an idiot if I grab the wrong mag


    Contacted ets..they said they'll be making g23 13rd mags in about 3 months

    Or only .40S&W Glocks... I have four, and I'm shopping for a fifth. No other caliber need apply.

    That's my reasoning for both, I can reload 9 and 40 for almost the same cost.

    OK, but like everybody else is saying, you've just unnecessarily made the management of your pistol mags/ammo exponentially more complicated.

    If you're stuck on the 9mm, then just sell the Glock 23.
