      You wouldn’t have remembered if it was 20 years ago. That clip was introduced recently, I remember where I was the first time I saw one and that would’ve been like 2015.

        Hmm, they definitely had safety clips back then, I just double checked. So might be a different design, but same concept. I just looked at the m67 Wikipedia page and that looks like what I’ve used.

          Naw not 20 years ago, that’s 2004. Here’s an article from the Army talking about their introduction in 09, most Army units wouldn’t have seen till 2010.

          I was in the USMC so adding about 5 years till we got them tracks lol. I absolutely was taught in the school house with no confidence clip and I remember what country I was in when I got training on it in 14-15.
