I just checked and the SLED at Fulton Armory is only 11.95 plus shipping. I value my fingers more than that small amount! (The idea of attempting to use a hacksaw on a small metal clip sounds like a good way to cut up some skin!) The sled works great and I have used it about 12 or 13 times over the last couple of years of JCG matches. The above comments about using a screw driver to remove are spot one, everyone I see at the line has a screwdriver ready to pop it out for the next rotation. It is really a very simple task once you do it once or twice. (Pratice at home when you get one.)
