I think you meant to say, "cartridge case." :biggrinjester:
Perhaps "Cartridge Casing?" Or "Cartridge Shell?"

At least one reload, whether that's a speed loader, clip, or magazine.

25 in full/commander size .45acp 1911's.
22 in compact size .45acp 1911.
28 in 9mm EMP.
40 in 9mm Hi-Power.
15 in .38special snubby.

So, it just depends on what I am carrying at the time.

If I know I am going to a bad area I will have the Hi-Power and the snubby.

If I am going to the corner store out here in the Country I just have the snubby.

Other than that, I just pick the EMP for Summer and the Compact .45acp for Winter.

Kahr pm9 + one extra mag for a total of 14 bullets. I also carry a box (50) of 9mm practice ammo in my car. Always nice to have lots of ammo around when driving.

On me, 5 rounds in my J frame Smith, or 7 rounds in my Kimber Ultra CDP, or 8 rounds in a full size 1911, and I always have a speedloader or extra mag in my pocket.

On a road trip, I carry my J frame Smith on me, and in case of a a problem arises situation, I keep a 1911 close at hand with no less than 8 loaded magazines and at least 250 rounds of additional ammo. :thumbs2:

On weekdays I carry a FiveseveN. 20 + 1 and three spare magazines. On the weekends I carry either my Colt or Kimber with 7+1 and 2 spare magazines.

I prefer my XD 45. 13+1 with 2 extra 13rd mags in my pockets. Not uncommon when traveling to carry 2 XDs.
