Cost? I can make them in a matter of 30 minutes. Those clips didn't come with the gun. I bought the short clip and made the long clip.

Where do you people get this stuff? Tbe ignorance is astounding. Having a firearm does NOT make me, or any other intelligent trained, person, feel any more "safe". Because we are not, we can still be attacked, and the mere presence of a weapon does not guarantee safety. It does, however, up the odds of survival.
Having a weapon at hand is one thing. Having the will to survive, and take life, needs be, is the real factor at play. This business of singling out tbe choice of a semi auto rifle as unnecessary is unfounded in fact. What an individual chooses to have for defense is nobodies business but theirs. If I lived in a gang infested, inner city, setting, I would certainly feel the "need"for a rifle, such as an AR 15. I would want to be, at least, competitive, with the bad guys.
I live in a very rural setting, however, so, I could keep anything from an AR , a shotvu.shotgun, a handgun or my bolt action, long range, precision rifle at hand. But, my all around pick is the tactical shotgun, loaded with #4 buckshot.
Dont assume to know what I "need"for or don't need. Thats my personal business, and my reasons for having what I do are my own.

They are too easy to make with scrap metal and a bender.
A straight clip is a breeze to make. Spring pressure becomes an issue with longer clips.

So why do you own weapons?

According to some, liberals have sex without thinking of consequences. I was just pointing out that conservatives do to.

Too funny!

Here is a clue.... you will die a man, either way.
Should we bury you, holding your junk?

Adults should choose not to own assault weapons - Baltimore Sun

really? well my daughters all know how to shoot, and when they leave the home, they can take all of their misnamed lookalike military assault rifles.

i dont agree with what you say or what the sun says either.

maybe the sun should remember that the Bill of Rights apply and that what they say does not matter to those same rights.

It is extremely hard to modify mother nature.
There is one thing on a boys mind constantly, and it is not how big his gun is.
It is the girls choice to give it up or not.
Women own ½ the world and all the *ussy.
