This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

You can still buy 5.56mm rounds on 10 round stripper clips. You just need a little accessory called a "spoon" to load (detached) AR mags with them.
Yes, this is still the ideal way to refill magazines. Though the unique part of the Vz.58 is being able to refill with the clips directly into the rifle, rather than detaching the magazine to refill them. The rifle has a built in clip guide.
Perhaps I’ll show off a handheld 5.56mm clip guide at some point.
