They are the same as NATO std ones, shouldn't be a problem. https://www.apexgunparts.com/m14-stripper-clip-set5-762nato-vg.html" rel="nofollow - https://www.apexgunparts.com/m14-stripper-clip-set5-762nato-vg.html ------------- Don't shoot till you see the whites of their thighs.

| these are readily available from a number of sources - you may also need the box mag adapter depending on what your charging with them , they made one for both these and the 556 roiunds so be certain if you order one , |

Thanks-to all- PS-Reading through past year or two posts is REALLY a recommended pastime. As an important example: SMLE pressures: watch reloading pressure and bullet weight. Most of my bullets used are 147-150 gr and factory 308 has to be watched. Each Ish 2a is probably a law unto itself, but these are older rifles. So to keep shooting w/o repairs or damage-load moderately & watch factory 308/7.62 ammo! ------------- Only the dead have seen the end of war-Plato Socialism-The equal sharing of misery-Churchill MACVSOG-5th Special Forces Gp |

Yeah its 7.62mm NATO, so stripper clips are fine for that caliber. On this side of The Pond! ------------- Don't shoot till you see the whites of their thighs. (Unofficial motto of the Royal Air Force) |

Apex Gun Parts has them. But their postage rates are higher than one would expect, unless they are loaded clips. So H-Do you hunt with your SMLE, or are there other reasons not to have a sturm gewehr / battle rifle without access to faster loading techniques? Like-stripper clips. Springfields and Pattern 17 used them, as well as WWI & WW II SMLE rifles. Curious as to your views. ------------- Only the dead have seen the end of war-Plato Socialism-The equal sharing of misery-Churchill MACVSOG-5th Special Forces Gp |

Absolutely. Stripper clips for 7.62x51 NATO, for U.S. rifle M14. I will conform to calling .303 versions "Chargers" here because some people get overly upset about it. I get mine from Sarco. $10 for a 12 pack. Reasonable shipping. https://www.sarcoinc.com/m14-stripper-clips-pack-of-12/" rel="nofollow - M14 Stripper Clips (Pack of 12) - SARCO, Inc (sarcoinc.com)

Let me just confirm to you all that during my 8-year service in the British army we referred to the 7.62mm metal things that held 5 rounds as clips!  ------------- Mick |

Just picked up some M14 10 round stripper clips from a local gun show. Don't see the 10 rounders around much anymore.

I have a few, they are a bear to strip out from compared to the 5 rounders. But they do work. ------------- Don't shoot till you see the whites of their thighs. (Unofficial motto of the Royal Air Force) |

They are a bit tougher to strip. I just figured I "needed" some since I didn't have any. LOL ------------- 14EH AIT Instructor-PATRIOT Fire Control Enhanced Operator/Maintainer |
