Stupid Question

[NORTHOF60]

Interesting how the 10 shot mag is always retained. Lots of expense to 'sporter' the rifle but not the magazine. Cut it off flush, remove one spring leaf, new floor plate; looks totally different.

The option of a short or long magazine goes all the way back to the "Lee-Speed" sporters manufactured by L.S.A. Co. Ld. and B.S.A. Co.

Many sportsmen like the look of the short magazine, but use a long magazine for hunting.

You don't, usually, need a 10 shot magazine for hunting.

I agree, but easier to replace, if lost, damaged, or stolen.
