It seems more efficient that the magazine should determine the amount of rounds a rifle can carry rather then the rifle itself. This way, the Glock 18 can accept the 30-round 9mm magazine, as it should be capable of, and machine guns can accept both the normal 30/20 round magazines as well as higher capacity magazines. The M-16 and Commando can also accept such high-capacity magazine (the infamous Beta-C 100 round magazine).

Basicly, all rifles will show a 0/0 value when empty. Once a magazine is inserted, that value changes to represent the magazine's content/max rounds (for example, a 5.56mm 30 round mag will show 30/30 if full, or xx/30 for any other value).

Some types of weapons can't take different sizes of magazines. Semi-auto 9mm handguns, for example, can't accept the 30-round 9mm magazine like the Beretta 93R and Glock 18 (maybe there are exceptions). Some assault rifles can't accept high-capacity magazines. This means that each weapon has a "hidden value" that determins its maximum mag size, but visualy the magazine determins how much shots a weapon can fire before it depletes.
