Covan, Sir!

The magazines for the M/45B-C contains 36 rounds. On that exercise, we taped 2 magazines together side by side, which made changing magazine when the 1st was empty, done rapidly. Even with those 2 full magazines with 9mm ammunition to the weapon, the weight is yet still "nothing really", compared to for example doing the same with an AK assaultrifle by for example 7,62 mm caliber ammunition. Well, depends on which AK one has of course, but the AK-4 we used, was the Heckler & Koch's "G3"-model. Later on, the AK-5 was introduced. Saw the first ones of those, while I was down at 6th Air Wing, in summer of 1987.

T G C!

Sincerely
A.B
