    I got one from Numrich for my 788 in .30-30.

    N.B.: It is an aftermarket mag. My mag from Numrich will not accept a cartridge of the same length as a factory mag. I can't remember offhand how much shorter the Numrich mag was, but it was enough I had to re-shoot the load to make one that both mags would accept.

    I'm pretty sure the correct nomenclature is clipazine.
    When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
    They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
    But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
    And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."

    If you find a NOS original Remington- it says Clip Magazine right there on the package. Hilarious.

    In the state of California, I think it's now illegal to clip articles from a magazine. You can cut articles from your periodicals, but don't clip from a magazine or they'll red flag your butt...

    In old American Rifleman magazines(periodicals) Winchester advertised the detachable cartridge holding device as a clip. The younger generations now think they know better what it is called, but if a factory that made the gun called it a clip, which most did, I still use that term. Sometimes it is just to annoy some of these young guys though! LOL.

    Yes, this could be a cancer causing endeavor in the state of California.

    Would having High Capacity Clips get around the High Capacity Magazine Bans?

    The high capacity “clip” I am rooting for involves a bunch of sadists gun grabbers getting clipped at the pols in 2020.
