> [@MacTech](#): > > \ good thing too! after all, we all know how _SCARY_ a small polymer box with a constant-force spring in it is, thankfully TPTB, in their infinite wisdom, have chosen to protect Californians from small scary inanimate objects!\*\*\* \ Well, at the moment I have 3 10 round magazines and I am getting very fast at magazine changes. If you can’t have larger mags, you have to learn to change fast. > [@](#): > > I think the next mag I may pick up for the RAR (yes, I did get it after all) will be a BX-25x2, it’s TWICE as scary, holds a staggering FIFTY rounds of ammo… Wow! How fun would that be to have?! I have a 20 round magazine for my Ruger Mini-14 which has been “owned in California prior to January 1, 2000” but it’s so expensive to shoot .222 (yes, that’s correct) ammo that I rarely take it out. > [@](#): > > Oh, and I plan to pick up a KPW in a few months anyway, so the correct answer is “rifle now, kindle later”, a.k.a. “Buy both” Excellent choice! > [@](#): > > \*\*\*I’m tempted to start a thread called “The Adventures of Mr. Magpul”, in which I place a loaded 30 round Magpul magazine on my desk and document his daily “misdeeds” and other “evildoings”… LOL! Could be very funny! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/christmas-money-needs-spending-should-i-get/677224.md?page=1)
