Clips and Magazines

Are you looking for an obsolete or scarce clip or magazine for an old rifle, shotgun or pistol?

Try looking up www.jloweclipsandmagazines.com .  Joe R. Lowe from Irving Texas, telephone # 972-986-8158 has a L O N G list of obsolete or scarce magazines for sale.

I had been looking for a LWSeecamp .25ACP magazine for about a year, with no luck.  The pistol was only produced from 1980 to 1984.  Joe had several available!  They weren’t cheap but the addition of the two magazines greatly increased the value of the pistol.

I recommend that you take a look at his web site and give him a call.


Important Warning Regarding Lead Contamination


1. Lead is a heavy metal, and is known to cause health problems.  Examples of heavy metals include mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), thallium (Tl), and lead (Pb).  Refer to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry for more information.

2.  Do Not pick up brass and place into your hat.  Lead particles/residue can be absorbed through the pores of the skin on the head.

3.  After leaving the range, wash hands, face, nose and mouth thoroughly with cold, soapy water.  Extra washing and precautions must be taken with beards and mustaches.

4.  Do Not ingest food, smoke, or chew tobacco while on the range, as lead residue on th hands may be ingested.

5.  Handle lead bullets with caution (when reloading too).  Copper jacketed or plated FMJ ammo reduces exposure to lead.  Indoor range use of non-jacketed lead bullets is not recommended, due to creation of airborne lead particles.

6.  Wash clothes, shoes, etc. and shower as soon as is practical after shooting.  Wash thoroughly after loading also.  The careful handling of lead products combined with thorough hygiene helps make a safe shooting experience.
