There is actually 18 in that picture. There are 3 in the pouch. I got a pretty good deal on this because it came with all those mags in the pic. I have a total of 25 mags not including the 2 5 rounders I own. I'm kind of stocking up on mags for AKs and ARs right just to be safe for when the Dems try to put this AWB back in place.
