What about round requirements for each stage? 96 / 4 = 24 so, on average, should I figure maybe thirty rounds per stage?
I've got an XD9 with two mags: a 10rd and a 16rd. I've been meaning to get another 16rd. Would now be a good time?

Extra mag would be good, I had my son with me, we did'nt shoot well  .........almost 400 rounds or more  but had a BALL...it was part of his 16th Birthday prez........now he wants his own pistol  And an AK that Pinnacle kindly let him shoot at the end of the day

Stages were strings of 5, but it's always a good time to get another mag

Well, we actually prefer you to aim by using the sights, but you could just hose 'em down I guess!

Are holster draws involved? If so, I'm guessing my IWB might not work.
Sorry, I'm just full of questions.

Sorry, I'm just full of questions. There were no holster draws involved last time, but you will need one to put your gun in at the end of the string.
