    Stripper clips ??

    I just bought a 1909 Argentineicon Cavalry..7.65 Argentine..and a 1916 Spanish...7x57. I have ammo for both, but the only clips that came with both.. have a T in a circle...and I'm not sure what I have ..or what I need .Both calibers seem to fit ..Can someone enlighten me ?...Thanks..JV...

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Most all Mauser calibers use the same rim size. 8mm, 7mm, 6.5 Swede, 7.65×54 Belgian/Argentineicon all use the same stripper clips.

    don't get to hung up on them, they don't always want to work with a rifle. I got a box of those Swedishicon ones from ebay last year.... very few fit in the stripper clip slot on my rifle. seem to flare out at the ends a bit much

    There is 3 main styles of Mauser Stripper Clips. No bump stripper clips, two bump, and three bump. Calibers should usually fit in all of them, its whether or not the clip feeds from the gun effectively that is the question.

    6.5 Swedishicon actually uses a slightly larger stripper clip as the case head is larger in size than the others (also why Swedish 6.5 clips work very well with Arisakas), most American manufactures of it just use the same size as the others as they are already usually making .30-06 etc, with that case head.

    For the 1909 you want no bump stripper clips like this 1891 1909 Argentine stripper clip - SARCO, Inc

    For the 1916 I suspect you want 2 bump clips not of the Swedish variety though the Swedish type may work, just not as well as the standard 2 bump clips.
