I need some ideas for how to store mags in my safe to make more room. I just have then all on a shelf now. I bought magnet strips at Cabelas today and of course they aren't strong enough to hold my Glock mags. Anyone care to share what they do in their safe? Pics and or Amazon links appreciated.

I bought a smaller pistol safe for my mags.
The problem is I switch out my carry gun almost daily so I need the mags all loaded, organized and accessible.
Thinking about this but damn its expensive and I would need several.

I would still lock any loaded mags up separately for security purposes / liability. A locked ammo can is at least an organized place for them. Put some coat out foam in there to make it easy.
Liability? I'm liable if someone breaks into my house through locked doors, then breaks into a locked gun safe and inserts a magazine into a gun because the mag was locked in a safe but not a separate container?

I'm not saying it makes sense. This is NY / ClownWorld. Just saying cover your ass while keeping organized.
I'll take my chances lol. Thanks though. I think sometimes we take things too far and just further advance the anti-gun agenda for them.

I personally use an arch welder to physically put my mags together from sheet metal each day, on the off chance that an unattended empty magazine will find a way to fill it itself with ammo and hurt someone.
Those damn magazines always hurting people. Got to be responsible. It's like they have a mind of their own.

Are you handy? Could you make one out of wood or something like that.
Funny you bring up the vaultek mag holder I want the biggest pistol safe they make. Since I’m not buying guns or ammo maybe I’ll buy it.
I agree there has to be a magnet strong enough to hold a magazine. Problem is strong magnets can be expensive. Good luck and keep us updated. I keep mine in my sock drawer and some with my self defense guns in my small pistol safe in my bedroom. Rest are in my large gun safe.

Get a piece of this.
Bend it to look like this and screw it to the bottom of your shelf.
Repeat on another shelf if you need more space.

Neat idea but I'm more of a buy something than make something person lol. Your drawing is beautiful though. I don't really have room to hang anything down below though because my pistols are all hanging down on rods. I'll see if these new magnets work and if not maybe look at totally reorganizing and getting hanging baskets or something else.

It works on the side of the safe too!
Don't tell anyone. I haven't gotten the patent yet.

I don't think you're going to find a magnet that will hold full glock magazines. If you go that route, just throw them on the floor of the safe. That's where they'll wind up anyway.
How about something like this apache gun box from Harbor freight. Leave top open and create rows of mags. Plus you can close it up and take it to range.

Listen Mr. Negative, I read a lot of reviews that say they hold with this product I ordered. Some even said 33rd loaded mags held. Annnnd some said they dont work at all so we'll see.

You don’t have door pockets?

Saw those. Nice idea but if your mags aren’t all the same size it won’t work.
