Seems a lot of assumptions are coming up as of late. There are also people that won't top off magazines to avoid any potential issues in many different firearms, including rifles. With so many different opinions and traditions out there, it's hard to make everyone understand reason unless they hear it from the head himself which in this case, is S&W.

Retarded, sure but I like to see threads like this go away or at least be around for anyone else with a similar question.
