MAN, I want one of those doublestar lowers.

We need to do a torture test with doublestar parts to see how well they stay up.

Yea, I dig the Double Star, Donovan. They're made less than 60 miles from my front door. I got this one at a local gun shop for $99+tax...no transfer. hy

Magazines have followers and go into the gun. Clips do not have followers and usually go into the gun. Chargers load magazines.

"Cleatus" is markm on good behaviour, be thankful.

Those are Mags not clips, go into a M1 Grand or a Bolt action type that you use a stripper clip in. Handguns and AR15 use Mags.
