    Back when I was stocking up clips to take a carbine class with a Garand, I frequently bought from Ebay. Lotta suppliers offered large bulk buys. I may have had a handful of issues with the hundreds of surplus clips I ended up with. Is there a reason you're looking for new clips?
    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.

    Purchasing for my twin-grandchildren and figured new would be without some of the issues with surplus clips. Interesting reading your "may have had a handful of issues", maybe I just readjust my thinking.

    Thank you for the info.

    Not a problem. I'd advise just buying a large bulk amount from somewhere and going from there. The vast, overwhelming majority should work fine.

    I ordered a box of like 25 from the CMP, it was this same brand, they have worked well. (marked CMP 3, codes here https://www.ammogarand.com/m1gaclco.html)

    I'd compare shipping costs between the CMP and the store you linked, just buy whichever is cheapest.

    IIRC, the CMP recently said that they're temporarily shutting down because of the 'rona, so you might have to get them from ammogarand if you need them in a hurry.

    Only needed 20 eight rounds & 4 five rounds, ammogarand shipped them yesterday.

    Ammogarand is good to go; I've bought enblocs and other items from them. No issues. Also sells a mix of reproduction and original small parts which is fine; just read the description so you are sure you are getting what you're looking for.
