Round capacity is a legitimate concern. Good example is the Trolley Sqauer Mall shooting in Salt Lake City.

The off-duty officer who initially engaged the shooter, Ken Hammond, was carrying a compact Kimber single stack 1911. His pistol held 8 rounds (7+1) and he wasn't carrying a reload.

If it's a concern for an off-duty officer out of his own jurisdiction, why is it any less a legitimate concern for the rest of us?
