Would you please be able to point me in the right direction.
I am looking for affordable belt loader for the TNW 1919 or M37 and some cloth belts.
Any info would be truly appreciated.

The true canadian way is to
A) get a 24
B) call a buddy over
C) watch some hockey
D) if links, whoever has more put together by the end of 1st per. stays while buddy goes and grabs more beer. Repeat until fingers start to bleed.
If belts, start from iether end and work your way to the middle.
### If all you've got is you're wife or GF to help you, replace beer with wine and hockey with the note book and thank god you found her ###
In all honesty I've looked for affordable belt loaders and if you wanted any form of crank style, you won't find anything under $500. I think I have seen a press loader from Ohio Ordinance Works for about $200
As for belts or links when I asked, a helpful CGN'r sent me to Northern Republic Magazine
Good luck and happy shooting. I'd save my money and put the money for the belt loader into another crate of 7.62
There is another way: buy a time machine and purchase the swede 8mm already loaded on 250 round belts for $120 a thousand. If you were lucky, you also got the 20 round boxes of tracer included in the deal. After you finished shooting the rounds off a belt, you sold the belts for $20 each, bringing the purchase price down to $40 a thousand.
I have a belt machine for the day I run out of the 8mm, but that will be a while yet.

And THAT folks is how you make a fellow 1919 owner, who was late to the party, cry... Chuckle!

P.S. I use the 30-06 M1 metal links & a 10 round @ a time linker...
Dam all I got for $1200.00 was 10,000 rounds factory loaded in 250 rnd belts
lol
loading belts sucks, I got whole bunch of links and bought a custom made linker from the us for $220 USD shipped to Canada.
Seriously offer beer.
I had one of those razorbacks. 300rd belts, I had 2 and a 50. I offered buddy beer, and loaded the belts while watching movies.
I did that everytime I had to reload, just make sure you dont drink too much, I had 1 end loaded one way, and my buddy twisted it and loaded it the other way.
Lmfaol.....
You could hire child labor...
If they're your own kids - you don't even need to pay them! FYI they get REAL complainey after about 100 rounds... 'My fingers hurt!'
