But if the gun is a .10 cal round, even if its a necked down .22 lr
size case, would be easy to do. You can fit 17 rounds of 9mm into a
pistol grip easily. Hell, look at some of the IPSC race guns, that fit
20+ rounds of .38 Super into a M1911 frame! When the round is 5.5mm,
30 will be no problem. You don't even have to resort to a quad stack
mag, like an Italian SMG, the Spectre does. And that is with today's
tech, let alone tech 60 years advanced!
