Extra ammo

Post by Oksrt » Mon Dec 25, 2017 9:34 am

How do you all carry additional ammo for pistol caliber rifles? Pocket, belt slider, butt cuff?
Thanks.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I carry a box in my backpack. My BBS in .357 carries 10 + 1 in the rifle. If I need to shoot more than that in the woods around here then something is very wrong.

I have a real nice stock cover that holds cartridges, and use it on and off. My rifle looks better without it so 90% of the time I wear a cartridge belt when horseback, with a knife on it....no pistol carry laws here in Canada. Cartridge belt is very handy.

Will 41 mag ammo fit 38 cal loops on leather slide?

If my internet searches are correct 38cal is 9.1mm and 41mag is 10.4mm and a dime is 1.35mm thick so they might fit but would probably be pretty snug.
