This article is about the style of carrying firearm magazines. For the style of music, see Jungle music.
A Polish soldier in June 1997, with MILES gear, AKMS and three magazines taped together.
Firearm magazines are used "jungle style" if they are fixed together side by side, often with tape. The spare magazine may be pointing downwards in relation to the one fitted to the weapon.
This configuration is used to speed up the process of reloading, since a loaded magazine is attached to the one in use. Disadvantages include an increase in the risk of stoppages due to the exposure of the rounds and magazine lips to dirt (particularly if the second magazine is inverted), possible loss of ammunition, and that the extra length of two magazines together can raise the profile of a soldier in the prone position.
To counter these drawbacks, some manufactures, such as SIG and Heckler & Koch,[1] have designed magazines with studs and cradles which permit extra ammunition to be carried parallel mated in an upright position without the need for tape or clamps.[1]
