Surplus 7.62x54R Question

[.30/06 FTW]

Does the surplus 7.62x54R that comes in crates (like from Marstar) come already loaded on stripper clips like the Czech 7.62x39?

Or do I have to get stripper clips separately?

Judging by the packages in this pic, it's not on strippers.

no clips, too bad,

No clips with recent 7.62x54R ammo imports, last batch to have clips was the Hungarian ammo imported many years ago by the now closed down Districorps . Some of it may be still floating around at Gunshows.

Was that the stuff in the heavy paper and tar(?) wrappings?

Hungarian Ammo. Yes it was.

Thanks guys. I'll just have to order some along with the ammo now.

Try Trade-Ex for clips.

Odd its not on strippers, I thought everything that shot this ammo either used strippers or belts.

The 7.62x25 Czech I just got is on 8rd strippers. What are these for? One of the SMG's?
