I've been close to a real firefight, and also been in many training
exercises. You easily go through magazines like there is no tommorrow.
Suppressive fire uses most of them, suppressive fire just being shooting in
the general direction of the enemy to make him think twice about taking
careful aim at you. A typical firefight with 4 to six people on each side
would easily burn 2 or 3 30 round mags from each person.
