GP11 cardboard stripper clips drying out?

[Pierre]

Good morning. I hadn't really considered that since I'm not in any of the current loops on supplies these days.
I remember bringing in two shipments of 500 chargers sometime back in the early 2000's, and most of them went to members of the SR DC, but I know that Grafs also took a couple hundred of them.

I bought them for $0.50 apiece and I think I had to add another $0.85 because of the bulk shipping. After I read these few posts of above, I went to take a look for myself and I was astounded at the current availability and price of those chargers!
I had seen the black plastic ones advertised and I didn't understand why anyone would even make them, but as of yesterday evening I understood.

I have to be more careful about what I say without verifying all the current loops. I bought my first Swiss Long rifle, a G11 back in 1959, the year before I joined the service, and in all the subsequent years I began with load data development and buying parts wherever I could find them. I probably need to do a lot of "state-of-the-art" reading before I insert myself in these kinds of conversations about availability.
