This video details the German Artillery Luger and its 32-round snail drum magazine, developed around 1916 for increased firepower. It explains the complex dual-spring mechanism that allows for the high capacity, with a clock-type spring for the first half and a coil spring for the second. Loading is difficult due to high spring tension, requiring a special tool, but the system proved reliable enough for use in early submachine guns like the MP18.
