I can only think of a handful of firearms magazines that cannot be inserted and function in a pistol.

Just about every rifle has a pistol cousin or a variant of a pistol in which the magazine is designed and will function.

If your magazine is not listed below, more than likely there is a pistol for that mag.


Please list any RIFLE mags that does NOT have a pistol counterpart:
List will be updated as we find more rifle mags.




M1

M14

BAR

Barret M82

American 180

Berretta AR70

HK SL8  (G36)

Proprietary 22 mags

Ruger Ranch Rifles 14 & 30

Steyr AUG (original)

FAMAS  (semi)

Draganov SVD

M110? Knights SR25 patterned, Larue OBR, 308 PMAGs...
AR10 (Armalite mags)

sorry M1s have an internal magazine fed by a clip.

AICS mags
22 bolts have several proprietary i.e. Marlin 22s, Savage 22s, Anschutz
TUBB 2000 has a proprietary mag along the likes of Eliseo tube guns etc.
FN SPRs have two types of mags, tactical and the other non tactical one
FN FAL?

DSA does manufacture FAL pistols.

AR10 also does have pistols.


Yes I would say that many proprietary 22mags does infact have NO pistol cousins .

Any Lee Enfield.

US Rifle, Caliber .30, model 1917 (Ok, that should probably count as a Lee Enfield)

Remington Model 700.

Ruger mini-30 (Although this one wouldn't surprise me)

How about the other BAR?  For that matter, any hunting rifle that uses a box magazine.

Great got another one.

Ruger Ranch Rifles 14 & 30



Ok lets rule out bolt action rifle..

sorry M1s have an internal magazine fed by a clip.

You are both wrong due to unclear nomenclature. 

ren is referring to the US Rifle, caliber .30, M1, commonly referred to as the Garand.  Suka is referring to the Springfield Armory M1a, a semi-auto version of the M14. 

Simply saying M1 leaves it open to interpretation and could include the US Carbine, caliber .30, M1.

Yeah, either way a pistol version does not exist . So the magazine would be legal in Hawaii.

SCAR 17

"Gender equality?"

This question is racist to begin with..

AR10 also does have pistols.

Think I have seen it mentioned before that DPMS style .308 rifles have "pistol" variants, but they must be rare as (wish i could come up with politically pithy) as I have never read about such a thing.

Same with FAL. 

FAL pistols can be ordered directly from DSA or Atlantic Firearms, its a normal production item.

The AR10 magazine does work in any production 308 AR pistol variant.





Steyr AUG
A version of the FAL called the FALMP III 5.56mm Type 2 used Steyr AUG magazines., but these are so rare that I've only seen one parts kit without a receiver.
So in conclusion a AUG mag is a Rifle ONLY magazine.

how about French FAMAS and snobby HKs i.e. 91, 93?
FN P90 magazine?

and my fave rifle of all time!

Daniel of KGS did have a super rare import semi FAMAS and it did have the original french magazines.  :thumbs:

HK 9x series  all have pistol variants.

AR57 pistols uses PS90 50rd mags.



Sorry ren, The  M41a (Tommy gun)  does have a pistol cousin.

I always wondered about standard capacity rifle mags in HI compared to gambling.   Gambling is illegal in HI but HI residents can gamble in Vegas since it's not the 9th island, and bring the winnings (and losses) home.  AK pistols exist in states outside of HI law but mags that can be used in  a TN or SD pistol are illegal in HI that does not allow such pistol in it's physical territory. 
Maybe a stretch since I'm not a lawyer or politician, only a retired shipyard worker but I always wondered about that.   Sometimes one word such as "capable"  or "readily" can define a whole law.  Just my thoughts while reading this topic.   

info.

What magazine comply 100% with the  Hawaii law and how its not particle in the real world.

and

How certain LGS would release certain magazine while restricting others based solely on their own opinion.

Lack of enforcement is tacit acknowledgement that the magazines are legal.  That leaves it to the gun shop and buyers to decide if the risk is tolerable.

Great topic and info here for discussion.   Let's try not to let this digress into a mag legalities flame thread.  That horse has been beaten to a pulp.

Steyr AUG

Despite it being rare I think that would make the Aug a maybe.  Anywho what about the HK G3?
