Serious question. How many magazines do you have stashed away for your main defense rifle for use if things go south into a destabilizing situation?
The question I ask is, "How much inventory do you want to leave the people who kill you?" There is no situation where having a stockpile of anything is going to last during a long siege. Shoot and run is the best survival strategy. The longer you fight from a static position, the more time your enemy will have to probe, flank and overrun your position.
My enemy may get my stuff but they will need to assemble it, to use it.
A good question is do you have a level 3a or 4 vest? Got a 1st kit with blood clotting supplies? Liquor for the pain?
For magazines I keep 6. I actually think of my max31c as a home defense item (only in shtf if roving mobs are around) and I keep 6 drums known to be 100%. Have spares and ammo cans by the safe.
