Are the mags altered in such a way that you can't drop 2 or 3 cartridges down into them? Very strange.

 

Yes, the gun conversion is done by simply boring out the barrels to accept the .410 cartridge rather than their native .303, but the magazine won't feed .410's without modification, further to this point with modification they'd accept way over 2+1 without then further modification to reduce the magazine size so they'd be on SGC rather than FAC, so many just had the magazine welded shut. I've seen one Enfield that would cycle .410 but the chap who modified it said it was a such a pain he wouldn't do it again.
