Integral magazine extraction extensions

Abstract

Integral extensions to aid in the extraction of ammunition magazines from ammunition pouches are provided in three embodiments. A method for modifying existing magazine floor plates to receive integral handle extensions is also provided. In one embodiment, a substitute floor plate is molded with a handle projecting from its outer face. In a second embodiment, a handle with a grip and a terminal end is provided with an attachment structure on the terminal end. Floor plates are then either modified by cutting anchoring holes to allow for the attachment of such handles without hindering use in an ammunition magazine or molded with said anchoring holes. In a third embodiment, the sides of an ammunition magazine are extended, either by molding or affixing a handle directly to the sides of the magazine, to provide a handle.
