Maybe it's because I fall into the "Rules are rules" category. But I won't play with my normal carry gun's, because I can't play with my normal carry set up and be within the rules.
Most of the rules that give me, and a lot of others that I have talked to, problems with our carry rig's could easily be solved. Mostly by "allowing" not requiring the "loaded" mag to be loaded to mechanical capacity +1 in the pipe. And allowing extended mag's as reloads only, as long as the extended mags do not go over the mag capacity limit. And as far as gaming is concerned, they already require you to start all courses of fire with the same magazine capacities as your first CoF. So if you start with a 7 round mag in the body, and 8 rounders as reloads, you would already not be allowed to "juggle" your mag's for a good time to reload. And you wouldn't be allowed to "choose" to start one course of fire at mechanical capacity +1 and the next at mechanical capacity with out topping off.
This, of course, would put a slightly larger burden on the judges. But how hard would it be for them to check a list for a shooters "registered" magazine set up before the course of fire. Actually, I would be willing to play with my carry setup's if they only changed the requirement for mechanical capacity +1 to allowing mechanical capacity +1. I would bite the bullet for an extra 8 rounder with adapter, if I were allowed to start a stage with it at 7+1 and 8 round reloads.
