What have the Americans put on the bottom of their magazines

I've noticed in some recent pics, films, and games that the Americans have put what I can only describe as a rounded foot on the bottom of their STANAG magazines on their weapons. Is it a foot, I always thought you should never hold a mag or use a mag as a rest when firing?
Still, people love to pimp their guns with rails, grips, etc. What will they think of next?

What the hell is your problem? I ask a very reasonable and simple question and I get moron like you telling me to "grow up", funny how your avatar pic presumably you dressed up in a Shemagh trying to look hard (and failing by the way).
If you don't know the answer to my question you only had to say, you didn't need to abuse me.

I assume he means a mag pull? Makes magazines easier to pull out mate. Try googling it, think thats what you mean?
