I was stateside 76-78 and overseas 79-81 in the Air Force and in both places we carried a full magazine in the weapon and three full magazines in our belt pouches. When we carried a side arm, it was always fully loaded. This is not counting the M-60's and grenade launchers we carried when overseas.
