33. Maybe if that's someone like you or me who knows that kind of stuff...

By that I mean people experienced with firearms, reloading and what would work, and what wouldn't.

But, who really knows what this guy was thinking and how much serious thought he put into it.

If he had done enough research... he would have known that Beta Mags are a POS.

Obviously... he didn't.

A little more research, and a little more imagination, and he could have created even more mayhem without a single round being fired or explosive being detonated.

I'm guessing this guy got his ideas from crap like "The Anarchist Cookbook" and Loompanics/Paladin Press publications and worked out some of the bugs.
