Honestly, if you're running it as a sidearm only, I couldn't see anyone needing more than 2 or 3 mags unless it's a multi day milsim game. Honestly, I would get 2 mags and use the extra $50 towards a better gun, like a TM. Honestly, once you get one, you're hooked man. But if you insist on having that many mags, I have the Red Jacket Elite Force 1911 and it's a solid gun. SoGo has them right now and extra mags are on their way I believe. Honestly if you stick with brands like KWA, TM, or even KJW most of the time you'll get a nice, reliable sidearm. WE's aren't necessarily bad though. They've really improved their quality lately for what you're actually paying for it.
