If I am not mistaken (I shot mostly M1 Garand in competition), for the standing position using an M1A (or M14) the left arm is tucked against the left side and the bottom of the magazine is used to hold the gun. With a short magazine that would not be possible. Can some M1A competition shooters help here?
