Two 14-round mags for my S&W .40 cal. I figure if I need more than 28 shots, I need backup.

And perhaps a trip to the optometrist. :)

Consider a third. One for the indoors problems, the second for any new ones you may face outdoors. The third is the one you have to get home with, or to use to repel boarders once you get to your vehicle.

I've found ankle rigs for extra magazines to be even more useful than those for hideout guns. BTW, when I'm carrying my old Browning GP, I carry four mags with it. Two go VERY nicely in a GI First Aid Pouch, which can be snapped onto almost any belt or holster strap.
