How many is too much

[BaDunkaDunk]

So i have liek 90 bucks, the mp5 G&P mags are liek 18, about how many mags (100 roundsish) is a good number to have?

[Sgt. Horvath]

i say as many as you think you need, sometimes more than you need. as long as you can carry them in a LBV or magpouches without any trouble. for shorter games carry less, longer games carry more

[Blitz[ip]]

MP5's have a pretty high ROF, if your only packing 100 rnd mags you may want to invest in several to meet your ammo needs

[Code3 From Co.C]

The more you play, the more you will realize your personnal needs based on your style of play.

I've played games where I have blown through four m16 high-caps (300rds each) in a matter of minutes. I have played other games where one mp5 high-cap (200rds) lasted me most of the day.

It all depends on different factors, but like I always say, "It's to better have it 1000 times and not need it 999 times, then it is to have it 0 times and desperately need it once."

[Legend]

That's a damn good catch phrase.

[almega]

buy 2, you'll probably use at least that. If you need more, buy more.

[ArmyHummer]

Well, I kinda go with half the philosophy of Decoy. Pack as many as you can carry on your gear. I don't go all that I can carry though. Just generally what I can fit within reason without shaking around. 3 mags in my drop leg mag holder, and 2 sets of 2 clamped together in the outside pouches on the LBV. 3 Standards, 3 highcaps 1 Midcap.

[almega]

so yeah, now that army hummer has graced you with the knowledge of what he carries, why dont you just buy 2 and buy more if you need more. G&P isnt going to stop making them any time soon, you can always get more later.

[M733Gat]

Yeah, the safest way would be to buy 2 or 3 right now, and if you need more then invest in more mags. Dont go on a shopping spree and buy a bunch of mags that just sit idle in your pouches.
