The High Capacity SIC Magazine is found in a medical backpack under wooden planks at a grave in Nagortsi Village Cemetery, east of the Cement Factory near the Cooling Towers.
Update 2.0 dropped a batch of new guns into the Zone, and one of them — the Self-loading infantry carbine (SIC) — has a dedicated high-capacity magazine tucked away as a world spawn. The catch is that it’s easy to walk straight past, because there’s no glowing marker at the grave where it sits. Here’s the exact spot, the route in, and how to land the carbine itself if all you’ve got so far is the mag.
Exact location and item facts
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Name | High Capacity SIC Magazine |

| Container | Medical backpack hidden under wooden planks at a grave |

Key What you’re grabbing is the magazine attachment for the SIC, not the carbine itself — a small mod that bumps the gun’s round capacity. Because it’s a fixed spawn rather than an RNG drop, once you know the grave it’s a guaranteed pickup every run.
How to get the High Capacity SIC Magazine in Stalker 2
Here’s the full run from the Lesser Zone out to the cemetery, plus exactly where the stash is buried once you arrive.
STEP 1/5

STEP 4/5
Find the stone cross with the Cooling Towers behind it
Look for a grave marked by a stone cross and a wooden fence, with the Cooling Towers filling the skyline.
STEP 5/5
Loot the medical backpack under the planks
Aim down at the wooden planks on the ground and open the medical backpack to grab the magazine.
Video help
Nagortsi Village Cemetery has more than one plot, so it’s the sightline that pins the right one down: the grave you want is the one whose stone cross lines up with the Cooling Towers directly behind it. Get that framing and you’re standing in the correct spot.
The stash itself doesn’t read like a container. It looks like a scattered pile of wooden planks on the ground next to the wooden fence, so most players’ eyes slide right over it. Point your crosshair down at the planks until the interact prompt pops, and since it’s a medical backpack, expect a bit of extra loot alongside the mag.
Use the Cooling Towers as your compass — the grave holding the magazine is the one where the stone cross sits directly in front of them.
Getting the Self-Loading Infantry Carbine itself
If you’ve picked up the magazine but not the gun it feeds, the SIC is one of the free Update 2.0 weapons — a DMR chambered in 7.62×54, so you don’t need any expansion to run it. It comes from late-game trading rather than a fixed world spawn.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the SIC and SKP the same weapon in Stalker 2?
Yes. SKP was the name used in trailers and early materials, but the gun ships in-game as the Self-loading infantry carbine (SIC). It’s one DMR with two labels, and only SIC appears in your inventory and at traders now, which is why searching for “SKP” turns up so little in the current build.
Do you need the Cost of Hope DLC to get the High Capacity SIC Magazine?
No. Both the magazine and the SIC itself are part of the free Update 2.0, so you can grab either without owning the expansion. The DLC only adds Justice, a unique variant of the SIC dropped by General Tachenko during the Shadows of the Past mission.
