Home made beats store bought

My wife needs to see this picture. She thinks my 10 mags is overkill.

INGO is educational. Our spouses think we have to many mags, to many rifles, to many pistols. It is our duty to educate them, when someone posts a picture of more than we have.

Those are carriage bolts, not lag bolts. But an interesting idea, nonetheless.

I use a box from amazon. I feel inferior

Well look’s like I am going to steal this idea. Thank you

Definitely looks cool, but also looks expensive and a lot of work to put together. Do you have a rough feel for the cost? How long did it take you to put it together.

I'd love something like that for sure.

Not expensive in the least.
64 - 3/8” x 4” carriage bolts @ .23 cents each = $14.72

128 - nuts @ .05 cents each = $6.40

two pieces of 4’ strap bracing (cut in half) @ $9.49 each = $18.98

Total cost of $40

i do not consider that expensive since it holds almost 40 loaded mags. It only took a few minutes to put together too, it’s just turning two nuts per bolt and the holes are already there so no drilling. Very easy IMHO.

I wish I had that kind of available space. Most cool project.
I have mine in 50 Cal ammo containers. 24 to the container. 5 containers. All loaded. And I still look at PMag deals. Spouse knows and has no issues. I love her...

I was looking for some mag storage options for AR mags and anything store-bought I could find was mind boggling expensive and only holds a few mags.

I made my own using a couple pieces of strap bracing and 4” carriage bolts. Strong enough to hold a bunch of loaded mags and keep them right where I can keep an eye on them.

How do you have the space with all the pointy bladey things you carry?

I have a very long belt!

If I were made of Silly Putty and your rolled me one time over all of the Sunday comics section spread over the floor, you'd get every panel.

Well....
There's an image I won't soon forget.

Thanks Rhino

That's a lot of mags!!! Somewhere in Khailifhornia, there are two guys, one saying "man I wish I could have 30 round mags!" and the other going "Wow those could kill so many people!"

If you stretch that image, you can make it look really funny.


(see what I did there?)

Interesting setup.

Anyone that thinks this is too expensive could buy their nuts and bolts from Rural King. They sell them by weight.
