During the Vietnam War, the early M16 came with only 20-round magazines while the AK-47 held 30, leaving American troops outgunned. Some Special Forces and ARVN soldiers modified captured Chinese AK magazines to fit the M16, allegedly fitting up to 40 rounds. Discover this rare AK-47/M16 hybrid magazine hack from Vietnam War history at Simple History.
