THE SICK 40 ROUND M14 MAG THAT HELD 30 ROUNDS by laststandonzombieisland

larry hilton and his 40 round magazined m14 made from two mags and three springs would only hold 30rounds however

I saw an AK-47 while in Vietnam and it had a 30 round magazine. So I cut the top and bottom off of a couple of M-14 Magazines and welded them together and made a “40” Round magazine for my M-14. It really didn’t work very well when test firing it, several of the last rounds would not chamber with only two springs. So I put “three” springs into the magazine, but then I could only load a little over 30 rounds. There just wasn’t enough room for three springs and 40 Full Metal Jacket rounds in that magazine. I sure received some strange looks while walking around with my 40 round magazine. Semper Fi, Larry Hilton via Grunt.com

Can we say that Tommy Atkins was over loaded with gear?

And the Brass wonders why Tommy is always tired & has a bad attitude. By the way if he “lost” any of this junk, he had to pay for it out of his patheic WWII pay! Grumpy
