Aside from the obvious answer of leaving them in the box/bag. Before I moved I kept a lot of my magazines hung on custom 3D printed hooks on pegboard, trying to think of alternate options so I don't have to reprint a bunch of hangers.

I use a small duffle bag. I have 1k loaded in mags and it weighs about 60 pounds. it has handles and a shoulder strap. I take it with me when I go up to the cabin and bring it with me when I come back down. Never know when I could get a call and need it. Some of you older guys were in the real Boy Scouts. By the time I was in it in the 70s they were a bunch of pussies.

5.11 range bags. Velcro on the top allows for patches listing what is inside.

For pistol mags, I use a clear plastic "Shoe Box" size container.
One of these days I'll make a cardboard "Ice Cube Tray" style divider for it, but right now, they're just stacked inside by firearm.

My AR and 10-22 mags are just stacked on their sides on a shelf.

I have boxes of empty magazines that reside inside my safe (yes I have a large safe. Loaded magazines are either in my plate carrier (6), in my huge Midway range bag (10) or on shelves in the safe which are accessible when needed ASAP.
This winter I expect to fill many of the USGI magazines I’ve ratholed just to be ready.

I'd rather follow my childhood upbringing, "BE PREPARED". :thumbsup2:

I use these-
They make taking mags a breeze when I go shoot.

They make them for AR mags, double stack or a combo of both.

I keep loaded mags in plastic ammo cans ready to roll. My longer term storage mags, some loaded, some not, I keep in clear plastic bins. Probably stole them from the wife's craft hoard. They work well and stack.

As someone who recently used one for a build, it is shocking what people ask for those damn things. They pop up, but people are proud, and there are 200 different styles of them. I used mine for record storage.
