Not that you are wrong, but when I was growing up firing bolt actions and breech loaders, I never expected to see the kind of magazines and engineering we see in some of the modern bullpup designs, PDWs or things like the helical-feed mags that Calico uses. With all the advancement in firearm engineering that I have seen in just the last 20 years alone, I wouldn't rule out anything, even if it makes no sense from a logical perspective....I think of it like Austin Powers time travel....Think about it too much and you'll go crosseyed. Plus it's a game, so artistic design generally overrides real world mechanics.
