Jan 28th Time Magazine reports mythical 600 round AR-15 magazines avalible

[KoopaKGB]

So Time Magazine's Jan 28th issue reports that 600-round magazines avalible for as low as $25.95. Not sure if they mean a 600 round magazine or 60 round magazines? Either way for 26 bucks I kind of want one.

If there is no ftf with theses Im in, oh hell im in anyway just because at that capacity I can just use the loaded mag as a battle axe and save the ammo!

WOW! Cheap too.

Saw one on Gunbroker for $ 58,995.00 with 486 bids and 6 days left to bid!!

This reminds me, isn't there some sort of attachment to make ARs belt-fed?

An M249 (also known as a SAW) is fed by a 200 round belt in what appears to be a magazine. A 600 round mag would be the size of an ammo can. It would take a week to load it.

Not to mention the weight. How much does 600 rounds of .223/5.56 weight?

Can you imagine lugging that around?

I stumbled across something that reminded me of this thread, thought it was worth a laugh and update. This:

The barrel would melt down long before you shot off 600 rounds.

The worst part about this, sheep read Time. Sheep believe what they read in Time. Sheep spread their ignorance to more sheep. Misinformation/propaganda are the gun owner's worst enemies. Before you know it, we're going to be back in the ring with Bloomberg, Fienstien, Cuomo, and their ilk.
