Anyone know what original stripper clips go for usually? A guy has some locally and I'd like to pick some up. Thanks
FWIW I've seen gun show vendors remove milsurp 7.62x54R ammo from the clips, repackage it, mark it up, and sell the clips separately. This practice is blatant profiteering. You are naïve to do business with these clowns.
Mandatory note: Jim is talking about 7.92mm Mauser stripper clips here. Mosin-Nagant stripper clips categorically do not do this. (This is an occasional criticism of the Mosin-Nagant design.)Note that a correct clip will not only fit the clip guides but will also pop out when the bolt is closed. You should not have to remove the clip manually.
