Where can I buy 7.62x54R stripper clips?

[BCRider]

Any of the sponsors have these or some other store? I'd like to get a dozen to 18 or so.

They'd be used with my Mosin Nagants.

I've checked a few and I remember seeing some at one of the sponsors a couple of months back but now I can't seem to locate them.

I bought some from a local store - and all four didn't work for me.. They are too tight and the bullets can't slide. I'm sure I might be able to force them open - but the design isn't like the sks strippers (for the ones I bought anyway).

Not to hijack - but are mosin stripper clips supposed to be similar in design to the sks strippers?

No they are not.

I bought the ones from Tradex and they work pretty good for me, not sure if theyre as good as original ones but so long as you lift the first round up a bit and then push the rounds in they work great.
No theyre not like the Sks Strippers, theyre suppose to come out around the rim and the sides of the case, check out Youtube to see how theyre suppose to be loaded

ones from tradex work well but I found the real ones work a lot better

I read post wrong. Thought you were looking for 7..62x39. Sorry

Check ebay as well. Lots available there!

 

[millwright]

How do you tell on ebay which to avoid or buy. Any known sellers?

 

[BCRider]

Thanks for the suggestions so far.

EDIT; quickly checking both sources shows that Tradex is the clear choice. Just gotta see what else they have to make the order a bit more worthwhile.

Many years ago, i bought chinese ammo in stripper clip. I have steel and brass clip but i prefer steel ones, they work better and last longer.

I've read that you want to find ones that have sharp bends (right) and reproduction ones (left) are not as sharp and are more difficult to use.

There are some on ebay. I am not sure of their quality/performance. The problem there is, you are paying more for shipping then you are for the clips.

I have a question of my own. Are the ones that are straight sided (like tradex sells) better then the ones with the little clips on the end? Also, does anyone know where to find soviet wartime canvas or leather ammo pouches? (not the post war pouches that they all come with nowadays) Or for that matter, Finnish or Chinese bandoliers? Or Polish postwar leather or canvas? http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/MosinAcc.htm#Stripper Clips Bottom of the page. Basically anything but the ones they come with.

Amazon has a 20 pack for $10. Look pretty cheap. But if you're going for quantity, that's an option

got some from tradex and they work fine

Chinese ammo i bought years ago come in clips, blued steel and brass. Steel work good but brass are not stiff enough to hold cartridges properly,i bent them a bit but doing so fews times,clips end up breaking....

[Island rider]

how many do you want I have about 30 of the sharp angle ones .

 

[mosinmaster]

How do you properly load the clip? Each rim above the other? Or Enfield style?

 

[762Russian]

Enfield style, with each rim offset over the one below. Pay attention to which end you are shoving into the rifle though, otherwise it'll make for a headache.

I have some. PM me I can send them to you vial snail mail. they were off some 51 hungarian ammo i think.
