Hey Guys, got another question, are the plastic clips I am seeing for sale the way to go when I buy clips for my "new" gun? I owned an AR years ago and I am afraid I sold it. Now, the bug has bitten again but everything has changed so much and I really am out of the loop. Would it be better to spend the money on used Colt clips or are the new plastic clips better? Thanks, Mark |

Troy's magazine FAQ AR15.com Magazines forum USGI aluminum are #1 preferred. Thermold & Orlite plastic are acceptable. Aftermarket of any style or brand are to be avoided at all costs. |
| From experience, I can tell you I traded out 12 "as new" thermolds (American made) for any type of USGI mag because the Thermolds failed me at a carbine course at blackwater. Yes, finacially I took a hit, but better to have peace of mind that my mag won't fail me when I need them. Of course this also being a hobby I still have some Thermolds, and will probably pick up some mastermold 20 rounders "just to have" (and an orange thermold if I can find one). |
