Abstract
An improved magazine housing assembly for quickly assembling and disassembling the magazine. The magazine housing assembly includes first and second elongated housing halves, a first elongated clip for slideably engaging a first dovetail formed by the housing halves and a second elongated clip for slideably engaging a second dovetail formed by the housing halves. The improvement being that the first dovetail has a substantially continuous dovetail half on one of the housing halves and a segmented dovetail half on the other of the housing halves, which is slideably engaged by the first elongated clip having a continuous retaining ledge and a segmented retaining ledge. Accordingly, this arrangement permits the first elongated clip to be attached to or removed from the first dovetail without having to slide the first clip the entire length of the first dovetail.
