This video explains the necessity of 'bumping' the magazine during an AK reload, specifically when using Yugoslavian bolt-hold-open magazines. The follower in these magazines catches the bolt on the last round, creating pressure that can prevent the empty magazine from dropping freely. Bumping provides the extra force needed to overcome this friction. Standard AK magazines lack this bolt-hold-open feature, making the bump unnecessary.
