Derk: Are you saying you threw the cut-off legs away? A true collector and packrat would save them for a future mag loading tool restoration.

Derk, now that you've boldly led the way, I can now cut mine off, throw them away, and join this elite group of leg cutters!
So much for preserving artifacts!
