I lack ammo boxes for 5.56mm so I'm making my own using cardboard and some polymer stripper clips similar to the ones 5.56 NATO ammunition comes on (the ones we all know and love from the CF and you can use in conjunction with the mag chargers).

I bought some off the EE but most of them are past their useful life and I would really like to get some once-used stripper clips from a range somewhere. I know that the stat dec taken by all members coming off a range prevents one from legally taking them.

Anyone seen a Canadian surplus store or other Canadian location where I could find them in good condition?


Thanks in advance.

Give the guys at TSE a call, they sell boatloads of Ruag ammo and it comes boxed with stripper clips. I'm sure there are lots in the throw away bins out there to be had.
 
x2 with ebay - a few years ago I picked up 100 stripper clips with 50 cardboard boxes both brand new for $20 shipped - still see the seller on there occasionally with the same deal.
 
Sounds good I'll look into TSE and ebay but no luck so far... Who's that seller? Maybe I'll keep an eye out for them.

Thanks for the link but $23.00/20 +tax/shipping is the most expensive I've seen them. I'm also only interested in the Thermomold clips. The metal ones look like the tabs are designed to break after 1-3 uses, never had to use them though so I could be wrong.
 
Here ya go.

I went through this a few weeks ago.

So far I've been getting PMs from members with a stockpile of them. Just ask in the EE and you should only have to pay shipping. Guys who shoot at service rifle matches have tonnes apparently!
