Hey everyone. I just purchased my first ever gun (Walther PPS 9mm) at the Gun & Knife show in Fort Wayne a week or so ago. It only came with one magazine, and being a relatively new gun I could not find any magazines for it at the show. The PPS 9mm has six, seven, and eight round magazines; I have the seven round mag.
Is there any reason to try to get the same capacity (8 rounds to equate to 7+1) on the reload? It seems like it would be a good idea so that you don't suddenly run out of ammo when you're used to eight shots, but then again I don't know if I would notice in the heat of the moment.
I'm actually thinking about going with the six round mag for the primary (would conceal much better), so if there is a reason to keep it the same I wouldn't want to spend the dough on the eight rounders.
I'm probably just overthinking, but I just want to see what everyone thinks about it. I know conventional wisdom would tell you to get the highest capacity you can, but conventional wisdom isn't always right.
