Discussion

"Double-Stack"

What exactly does that mean? - User: 2wingo

It means that the magazine staggers the rounds contained within, increasing the capacity while keeping the same relative size. Jeddostotle7 (talk) 21:43, 18 December 2012 (EST)

Well, double stack magazines tend to be wider than single stacks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 01:28, 19 December 2012 (EST)

Yeah, I thought me saying "relative" would cover that. Jeddostotle7 (talk) 01:34, 19 December 2012 (EST)

Follow-Up Question

Are double-stacked magazines more prone to jamming than single-stack, or are they about the same? - User: 2wingo
