i had an argument with a friend about using the same ammo for all 3 guns. his idea was that it would save money in the long run (with having to buy ammo that goes with either the primary or secondary weapon) but i believe it's a major safety issue.
hypothetically..if my primary is .45, secondary weapon is .40 and third weapon uses .40..there is a chance a suspect in a physical struggle could get my secondary weapon AND have an extra clip of ammunition (from the 3rd backup if he gets that too). but if my 3rd weapon uses 9mm, 38+P or .357 then the suspect wouldn't be able to load the primary or secondary if he wrestled it away from me.
Has anyone else thought about this before? when you carry two (or three) weapons..do you use the same ammo or different for each gun?
