M91/30 stripper clip question

[Hundids]

Picked up a M91/30 before registration, this is only my 2nd and probably last long gun unless the law changes. I couldn't find anything relating to this, but when you load a stripper clip into the magazine, can you slam the bolt shut to eject it like you can on a K98?

nope

is it really that hard to pull the empty charger out of the clip guides? I don't get it.

Treat the stripper clip well and it will serve you a long time.

There are a lot of variations and some people are very picky. My only advise is to avoid the aftermarket clips.

All of mine are Izhevsk -- I bought a case of the '40s ammo that was loaded on clips and saved them.

Those cans show up on occasion; if a batch of it shows up, buy.

I have them, I never use them in a 91-30. you can install the rounds improperly in the clip and have feed problems. rimed cartridge

That's good to know, because I did buy a crate of these from J&G sales about a year ago that I haven't opened yet. They shipped the wooden crate without a cardboard box and I got it smashed to hell. From a review I read, the ammo itself is on the dirty side. But it was the stripper clips that I wanted, so I'm glad to hear that they're good ones.

I got mine from J&G too. Some people were reporting that the ammo hadn't aged well; inaccurate and some hang-fires. I shot it up and saved the silver tip I had for later. I never had a hang-fire and didn't notice the ammo was inaccurate compared to other surplus. It is dirty and corrosive so clean after shooting. The ammo was cheap and I have no complaints.
