How to carry extra mag?

(1/2) > >>

cracked junior:
I currently carry springfield xdm compact 45acp with the compact mag.  so that gives me 9+1 rounds.  holster is IWB crossbreed super tuck deluxe.
I have been thinking of how to carry an extra mag.   what is everyone's thoughts on this and how do you carry the extra mag?

Mudinyeri:
I use a Leatherman case.

bkoenig:
It's not ideal, but I just stick it in my left front pocket.  I always carry an extra mag (or speedloader with a wheelgun).  With an autoloader the mag is your most likely failure point, and with a revolver I like the extra reload just in case because of the limited capacity.  The only time I don't carry an extra is when I go running.  I carry a J Frame for that, and I leave the speedloader behind because I just don't have anywhere good to put it.

ghknives:
I usually wear a vest or jacket as cover and carry at least one mag or speed loader in the lowest outside right hand pocket. I use the extra weight to help flip the cover out of the way to clear the draw

Are you right-handed?  I'm curious how that works in practice.

I carry my Leatherman pouch on my left hip.  That way, I can maintain control of the firearm with my right hand while dropping the empty mag and pull the spare mag with my left hand in preparation for a reload.
