[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Founs some 30 clips at the gun show today and have a question?

Posted: 10/4/2003 2:27:09 PM EDT

I have some Okay and some Sanchez clips I found at the gun show for real cheap. They need to be refinished but that is the fun part. I got home and put them into the lower receiver but they do not release that well. Is there a way to squeeze them back so that they will fall out when released?

Thanks in advance

A friendly tip: they are mags NOT clips.

Mags are inserted into the gun, clips load ammo into a mag. 2 different things, and it makes you sound like a newbie when you call a mag a "clip". [beer]

Thanks for the "mag" trick. Im going to try that now. Sorry for offending anyone for calling it a clip. Just have all my life.

You can also take a pair of channel lock type pliers and carefully squeeze in enough places that it will drop free. Usually just toward the top of the mag by the feed lips works for me.

lol, I spent 20 min posting my own results of correcting my mags THEN I see your thread. Check mine out if you haven't fixed yours already.
