"Extended" also veries for the weapon. As another example, I have an extended magazine for my Sig .380 and it holds seven rounds. I carry an extended magazine on my Sig 9MM, and it holds 15 rounds. I have a Beretta 9mm as well, and it will take an aftermarket extended magazine that holds 30 rounds, but that actually purchased for a carbine that accepts Beretta mags. A magazine that long would make the pistol unwieldy and difficult to use. Extended magazine can mean a lot of different things, especially on the weapon platform.

I don't recall any mention that the weapons were concealed. The reports say this nutjob walked in and started shooting. There was no mention that he pulled a concealed weapon.
