Reversal of the negative would have reversed everything, it would not look the same as bullets loaded backward in the magazine.

I said the most common mistake that photographer do to guns is reverse the negative. I never said that was the problem here.

When I first saw the picture, I thought the photographer had used the wrong caliber because something about the magazine and the cartridges didn't look correct. They appear to be .40 Smith and Wessons by the deep cut of extractor groove. Then I noticed the location of the feed lips in contrast to where the cartridge is. Oops.

Someone on another website posted the picture but I did figure it out before I was told what was wrong. I thought I would share the fun.
