DoubleTapper has created a video review of the FAB Defense GL-MAG stock for AR-15 rifles. The stock incorporates a magazine carrier. A 10 round AR-15 magazine sits almost flush with the bottom of the stock. It is being marketed as a survival stock.

I'm kind of curious how this would affect weapon handling in terms of balance, especially if you replaced the 10 round with a 30 round.
Other then that, i mean..it's kind of a solution that doesn't really have a problem to solve. I have to think the edge case where you have an assault rifle, but no magazines, and all you need is 10 rounds to make the difference, is kind of a narrow thing to have occur.
Could maybe use it to "sneak in" a loaded mag somewhere where guns are allowed but bullet's aren't, in some way. Security could look at the gun, not realize it had a magazine in the stock, and pass it through...but there's no doubt better, easier ways to achieve the same thing.
Interesting idea, i guess, though.
From what I understand, Israel allows people to carry unloaded rifles, and it is a common practice. Hence, Israeli companies have come up with a variety of ways to carry magazines on a rifle but outside of the magwell.
