To carry extra mags or not to carry extra mags?

Similar to old school revolver cops when they were found dead with empty brass in their pockets and live rounds still in dump pouches?

Little late as I missed this the last 3 weeks but let me add

The whole “brass in pockets” story has been overplayed and proven to not have happened. From a deep dive in the after actions and talking to investigators that were actually involved no brass was ever found in any CHP pockets.

It has been fairly common knowledge for a while now, but old myths die hard. I was going to post this up and this seems like a good spot.

Just saying (on my original post here,) unless you hear BEEP “Heyoooooo!!” BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM, you probably have no business carrying a speedstrip for your revolver. As Jim Cirillo said, “The best reload for a revolver is another revolver.”

I believe Even Paul Harrell has a video out that addresses the Myth.

What is unfortunate is that training was materially altered based on something that never happened.
