A magazine for a firearm such as long guns comprises a housing defining a cavity for holding a double staggered stack of cartridges and spring-biased tiltable follower for dispensing the cartridges into the action of the firearm. Features include an accordion type flat spring specially configured to fold into a flat condition in which adjacent bends of the spring are arranged side-by-side to reduce the folded height of the spring. The follower includes bosses slideable in mating vertical housing slots to guide the follower upward/downward motion and allow front to rear tilting action. A coupling mechanism includes a plurality of interlocking mounting teeth forming a selectively interlocked arrangement for detachably assembling the floor plate to magazine housing. A resilient snap fit tab on the floor plate secures the coupling. The magazine is longitudinally elongated and configured to fit flushly with the underside of the firearm when mounted.

An adjustable stock for a firearm includes a longitudinally-extending chassis supporting a receiver, a butt pad assembly adjustable in longitudinal position for varying the length of pull, and a cheek rest. The cheek rest is adjustable in longitudinal and vertical positions. A triple-acting locking mechanism having locked and unlocked positions is operable to simultaneously lock the butt pad assembly in longitudinal position and the cheek rest in both longitudinal and vertical positions. The locking mechanism may be a cam lever assembly in non-limiting examples having a pivotable cam lever operable to simultaneously unlock or lock the butt pad assembly and cheek rest, thereby providing a single point of operation for making all the foregoing stock adjustments.
