    Here's the closest to a test drive I could find. Loading the 10 round clip at about 2:09. Definitely looks clumsy compared to loading a Garandicon. After the loaded clip is inserted, the bolt overrides the top round and closes on an empty chamber which indicates that one could easily get Pederson thumb when loading a full clip; something that is not possible when loading a full clip into a Garand.
