RE: Does your gun have a clip??
my pistoland my 2 22s have detachables...and my mauser is internal and no floorplate...it is my deer rifle and i never load more then 1 round in the gun so unloading is nothing unsafe and no cycling 5 rds through or anything...i was taught to hunt with 1 round in the gun...and now that im old enough to make my own choices i still choose to do it that way....no need to have more in there then that...if i cant do it with the first one im not supposed to be out there....im supposed to be on the bench

RE: Does your gun have a clip??
What' s unsafe with a rifle with a blind magazine? You don' t need to chamber a round to get it out of the magazine, just move the bolt forward ahead until the round pops out of the magazine. I' ve never heard of a mauser or pushfeed type of rifle firing out of battery. With a blind magazine, you get the utmost simplicity- not bent magazine springs, no followers dropped in the snow or mud, and now warped floor plates or damaged releases to cause problems.

Do you hunt from a bench?LOL[:-] |

RE: Does your gun have a clip??
I only own two now with detachable magazines. I used to own several, but I' ve been getting rid of my cheaper foreign battle rifles in favor of high quality firearms. The result has been a reduction in the total number of guns I own, but a significant increase in total value and quality.
Anyway, the two I own with detachable mags are: Ruger 10/22 .22LR American Heroes 9/11/01 Special Edition Glock 21 (.45ACP) All the rest have fixed tubular magazines (2 pump shotguns), fixed internal magazine w/ floorplate (Ruger Model 77VT 22-250), or no magazine at all (3 muzzleloaders and cap' n' ball revolver). I wish I had an M1 Garand, which is the only truly " clip-fed" weapon I can think of. Does anyone know of any more guns that are actually fed from clips, excluding the stripper-clips for speed loading magazines? Mike |

navhunter, you better double check your garand. it should be a 30-06 not 308.
