Thanks for the offer of the mag loan, but if I have to I'll buy a few for the test. CDNN out of Abilene is offering blued 20 and 30-rnd. mags for $9.99 and stainless for $12.99 (800-588-9500).
You're right in that I won't be able to use any Texas dust in the t&e. I'll have to settle for what I have here in Arizona .
