You can also get drum mags for AR-15 style rifles, as well as Mini-14's, G36's and others from the Beta-C Company. I've heard some apocraphal accounts, though, that extended use can cause damage to the magazine release.

Also, might be a small point, but these are NOT CLIPS!!! Clips are devices that allow easy feeding of cartridges into a magazine. Magazines are devices that hold the rounds and allow them to be introduced into the weapon's breach.

So, what I've been calling my Speed Loader is actually a "clip?"

I have had several debates (clip vs. magazine), here, over the years on this semmingly trivial, and yet, I think, importamt distinction.

While I am in agreement with you, the majority of our fellow freepers think I am being too pedantic, if not outright anal.
