    Re: Keeping a spare mag on your rifle

    Why can't you carry one on your duty rig or on your belt if plain cloth?

    I carry a 20 rounder in a safariland pistol/rifle mag holder or in a bladetech msv holder if working plain clothe.

    Opps, sorry I forgot about Dept. Policy. My bad.

    I would try to find something that will attach your spare magazine to the buttstock or someplace else. I had two magazines taped together on a M-14 and I wrecked both of them at the same time, which is a long story. A magazine in a separate location would get you up and running more quickly.

    they have a couple of other unorthodox mag carry solutions(maybe actually orthodox - Israel after all)

    Another vote for a RediMag or RediMod.

    They are T&Eing these here in Wisconsin as we speak. I think it might be catching on too. I've received inquiries about them several times in the last few weeks.

    Given that they, usually, don't have the "on the weapon not on your person" mandate from higher, carry either in a mag pouch or in their "ready bags" with their first responder gear.

    The stock will hold either 20 rounders or 30's. Looks a bit awkward with a 30 hanging out of it but it works.

    it is not as fast on the reload as a redi-mag/mod is but, it IS a viable low cost option that doesn't mess with your handling of the weapon.

    Any thoughts on weapons manupulations with the added weight so far forward? I would think you would have alot of change in the way you'd do things before and after you removed a full 30 Rd mag from the front of your rifle like that.. Atleast with the redi mod there its being moved from the same spot and there is still weight there. And it's much farther to the rear..
