An old gun, the P30 Grendel was a 30 round .22 magnum, totally in the grip of
course.
If the slivergun actually uses slivers instead of bullets there is no
telling how the mag would be.
The glock 18 uses 33 round magazines, place those in a Glock 17 and it will
indeed extend down another 2-3 inches. Place that in a shoulder holster and it
will make little to no difference because the magazine will extend down along
the side.
