Great picture but not sure holding the magazine like that is how it should be done

Sure, MAB were scarce as hen theets in N.A., so probably it was distributed just for this propaganda photo, so could be that it was first time that soldier grabbed this brand new one...
Miracolously, in the R.S.I. they appeared in thousands...
