One disadvantage to the use of
ranged weapons has always been limited
ammunition. Unless the weapon's bearer is willing to cart around a bulky power backpack or ribbons of
ammunition, reloading is always a problem. The teleporting magazine gadget allows a character to reload without ever having to actually reload; when the weapon detects that it has
run out of
ammunition, the current box magazine is teleported out of the weapon and another one is teleported in instantaneously. Though the character never has to reload, he must possess enough magazines or power packs to be teleported in or else the gadget does not function.
