The German paratroopers used those for extra firepower. It was a really interesting idea in the 1940s

If you have a spare Garand (plus some cash) and want it converted to mag fed, Tim Shufflin at www.shuffsparkerizing.com does them.
He converts them in .308 to take M14 mags and IIRC he can make them NY legal.

I have one of his Mini-G's which I love.

Beretta made a Garand variant the BM-59 for the armed forces of Italy after WWII. 30-06 and then later 7.62 NATO
