1) clone troops are not trained with them
2) sabers are pretty much usless in combat situations for most non-force users. although a normal person could train to use a saber (although never as well as a force user) he or she would never be able to deflect laser bolts, making a lightsaber useless in most hands. cause if a clone tropper ran at you with a lightsaber all you'd have to do is shoot him in the face with a blaster, he would not be able to do anything, as non-force users lack "jedi reflexes"
so thats why, pretty much...

Good point Master Anomaly has ✅
They did take them! They'd fight over them every time, and sometimes they'd use contests to see who would get to keep it. Pie eating. Sack races. Archery. Ewok tossing. Sadly, a lot of the winners would take them to their clone homes (each decorated with the same furniture) and try to use the lightsaber. They always had a difficult time figuring out how to turn them on, and usually ended up pointing the emitter right at their faces when they finally got it right, thereby stabbing themselves through the face with the colored blade. The clones genetically engineered brains didn't lend themselves to friendship outside of work, so nobody ever went to check on the clones when they didn't return to duty the next day. So, many lightsabers are laying on the abandoned floors of many clone bedrooms. Sad, really.
The troopers are way too clumsy for lightsabers. They would be safer running with scissors.
i agree. As stated in several books the lightsaber is supposed to have a gyroscopic (gravity warping) affect. this would most likely lead to the clones killing themselves... and their children (if u know what i mean).
