Figure 4-8 Inserting a Cartridge into the Magazine

To insert a cartridge into the magazine (Figure 4-8):

Place the magazine on a flat surface with the slots facing you. Each slot is

numbered to ensure you are inserting the cartridge correctly in the front of the
magazine. Usually, cartridges are inserted into consecutive slots.

Insert the cartridge by pushing it into the slot until you hear a click.

Notice a small metal tab.

This holds the cartridge in place.
