Hello fellow gunnies

I am desperately searching for a member here who was 3D printing those SKS stripper clip thingies in the picture attached.
i bought some from him maybe in 2020 or 2021 (can't remember) and I want more but I can't find him anywhere ... can somebody point me in the right direction?
He had some for sale in the equipment exchange forum but I can't find it ... maybe he took his add down ...
Please help me find him.

^ ^ I use electrical tape - diff colours for FMJ; HP; SP. They stack well in 5's. I've seen on some thread people 'pinching' the rails and ends with pliers to block @ 5. What'll they do when limit goes to 1 ?
 
grumpyguy - Good eye on that, I've never seen one of them . . . could be useful if you can't push-slide at the bottom of a cartridge. Sometimes they do get stuck if you don't have the rails 'tuned' properly.

I just acquired a loose crate. What is this method you speak of?

Tape the charger so it only holds five rounds and push them down with your thumb.

Some folks just take a pair of pliers and bend the top enough of one end of the charger guides so no more than five rounds can be inserted.

If your rifle is pinned or modified to take only five rounds, none of this is necessary. It will only take the first five rounds from the charger and then you have another five already on the strip for the next charging session on the rifle.

...actually, I think it depends on how the mag is pinned?

My SKS's are pinned at like 5.5 or 5.75 rounds. I can't get a 6th in, however, using a fully charged clip that 6th round is released from the clip when I send them home, so I end up with 5 in the rifle, 4 in the clip, and one floating about someplace...usually on the floor! ;)

All this is mitigated if you only load 5 in the clip and hockey tape the long end for a handle of sorts. Works great.
