Sock Over CAR-15 Magazine
Can someone please tell me the story behind why there may be a sock over the mag?

A single sock is kept there for quick and easy access when you need to knuckle-shuffle in the field...
A free tip from BB |

That's where the one sock goes when you lose it in the dryer.

Why the rubber gloves? Why the white lab coat? Perhaps there is more to that picture that what is shown?

 MFS, I think someone was testing the gun and the picture is of some government official. I don't know exactly. I found the picture at IMFDB (Internet Movie Firearm Database) |

Maybe it is a blank firing magazine (only takes blank rounds to prevent accidents) and comes in a different colour to represent this.
He has covered it with a black sock to disguise this, restoring some 'its a real weapon' factor, without cracking out the spraypaint and annoying the armourer when it comes time to hand it all back in? Unlikely and outlandish I know, but its all I could come up with! I can't see why you'd want a mag-sock... BB |

Actually, I just saw the bottom of the 'sock' has an opening, so might not be a sock

It might actually be a sock with a hole in it. Mystery solved. Good work, Horatio.

But that doesn't solve why its over the mag.
I thought maybe the fact that it had a hole in it, it was maybe some sort of magazine grip - Idea came off the top of my head |

Err well you could just put some cloth tape over it. I'm sure there are rubber things which people put on their magazines too - although why, how to use, and how they still get them to fit in their pouches, is beyond me.
