What a waste of ammo. I have seen this clip before and thought that it was a waste then, when ammo was 20 cents a round. I used to do mag dumps with my SKS and ar when ammo was .06 to .10 cents a round...shipped. Mainly the mag dumps were more or less trigger control with the round being sort of close to the target. More like a double tap x 10. I would never do this with a garand.
I wear barrels out too fast the way it is without doing things like this.
