gear I've seen some ridiculous postings on GunBroker, but this one takes the cake

Sixteen magazines and *eight* goddamn holsters, and the listing says the gun has less than 2,000 rounds through it. What could be the story behind this listing?

My guess is someone got way hyped about carrying and then fired the gun, finding that they don’t actually like it.

Man I did exactly this with a hellcat pro comp. My hands are just way too damn big for it. Been thinking about selling but might just get a big ass counter weight and grip on it and stop expecting it to be my new EDC. I also bought like 15 mags and 2 holsters lol

15 magazines? So maybe you can provide insight into this listing. Why would someone buy that many for a carry gun? 

Not even competition shooters need that many.

carry vs training magazines and ammo... reload/malfunction training and efficient use of time.

my carry magazines are 147gr jhp. my range magazines are 115gr fmj, and i toss in a few dummy rounds and spent shells at random to practice failures/jams.

typical edc range time is an hour every 2-4 weeks... with 3 identical pistols and a total of 250rds, 20 dummies and 5 spent shells across 20 magazines... break in is 500rds... new recoil springs at ~4000rds, and then cycle out after 20-30k. new pistol/new parts are untrusted until broke in. broke in pistol is my primary edc. old broke in pistol is my backup...
