    #1 and #2 in the image above are M1903 clips. They are the same width as the 7.62 NATO clip but the lugs are placed differently and the mechanical design is different. The 6.5 and 7mm Mauser clips, #5 and #4, have the same width and design as the NATO clip but lugs like the M1903 clip.

    All of the rifles for which these clips were made are "magazine fed". Most are also "clip loading". The shooter loads ammo from the clip into the magazine. The rifle feeds ammo from the magazine into the chamber.

    I knew that. If I'd stopped long enough to think. I load my AR that way when I have surplus ammo on hand.

    Thanks for the info. I need to look much closer at the next show or two.

    NZicon .. as you say, more info that I thought ....
