Ammunition Magazine with Built-in Compartment Covers

Abstract

An ammunition magazine has several compartments formed by vertical separators for holding rounds linked by a belt. A compartment cover is rotatably mounted to each vertical separator for either opening or closing an associated compartment. Each compartment cover has an opened position when the rounds are disposed inside its associated compartment, and a closed position when the associated compartment is emptied of the rounds.
