Is this normal.. 8 rounds in .44 Mag Carbine?
While working on a speed loader tube for my .44 Mag BBS carbine I noticed the mag tube will now hold 8 .44 Mag rounds which are 1.600 in length.
Specs say 7 round capacity. Thought I had a senior moment and couldn't count to 7 but double checked!
Cycles fine so now with one in chamber it will be a 9 shooter???
Maybe this is normal.
Pictured is mag tube with round number 8 .

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

The .41 carbine will also hold 8 in the mag, although #8 shows in the port quite a bit.

Question: Has anyone experienced any malfunctions by loading a full 8+1 in the BBSC (.357, .41mag, .45lc, or .44mag) ?
