n/a =not applicable, in other words it doesn't matter in this thread

If the catch can stop one row of bullets from jumping out, a better designed hook can be done, or have hooks on both sidesKind of hard to design a bullet cutoff IN THE MAG without it being a single stack.

No.
Automatic rifles are a stupid idea.
Really really stupid.
Because they have a very small magazine, they don't put enough rounds downrange to get the enemy too keep their heads down for long enough.
Because they are heavy, friendly troops can't carry spare belts of ammunition for the machinegun, anti-tank weapons, a radio or anything that is useful.
So.
It's a stupid idea.
No.
