most any should work. a bit of slight filing may be needed for the pin holes to line up, but its not usually needed.

SSS, the best thing I can think of would be having a smith put a couple of stainless steel bushings in your pin holes, and using quick-takedown pins, to allow you to flip the upper open, and shove some rounds in. There is a Cali-compliant sub-culture growing, so someone may have come up with a stripper-clip conversion, but I haven't heard about it. As above, ar15.com is your best resource. |
