I didn't see Enfield wire cutters there, did I miss something?

Has anyone here bought the new stripper clips? How are they?

How about a little sepia, & some vignetting for a "period" look

 "Stripper clips???"  You should know better Shamu!! Go stand in the naughty corner and say 30 times "Charger ClipsBig smile

Its OK, you're just misunderstanding a long running joke.
Hoadie has been doing his impression of some older, crustier, members for years.
The correct British term was "chargers", but the U.S. members refer to them as "stripper clip's"

Another welcome to the forum

On a historical side note. In the original U.S. Patent for Paul Mauser's invention for quickly loading magazines. The German term Ladestreifen (Loading Strip) was translated as "Magazine Charger"

If you read my post again you'll see the comment was directed at my fellow moderator SHAMU!! Who has quite tightly explained it's a long standing forum joke involving our resident Canadian nut Hoadie. This is a civilised site and we do not belittle newcomers!!

Oh for goodness sake... look here you chaps. If you colonials will persist in the redicule of each other... I'm afraid that there will be only one course left open. We here in the ole country... Blighty... will have nothing left but to 'tax one most heavily'... again!

 
Now then... behave! ;-)

AHEM! I, sir, am still a "Monarchist"(Well, so my friends say, anyway.)
..& you may be hard pressed to tax me more heavily than I am. Close to being taxed to more than I make, now!
