    Higher Capacity Mags Than 6 rds for K-31?

    K31 assault variant. Well, the Swiss felt that the dangling magazine was too likely to be damaged, and while it is removable, the rifleman didn't have multiple magazines. hence the use of those odd cardboard chargers, or the very few rifles modded to use a mauser style clip. as for the 10...
