Looking to get some original clips for my red 9 and I understand that both .30 Mauser and 9mm use the same clips. I’ve seen brass ones and regular marked and unmarked steel. Would like to get some original clips but not sure which, and what to look out for in regards to repros or Chinese ones. Thanks.

The brass ones are too flexible and not correct. Steel DWM or Mauser marked are correct. I'm not sure how to tell if its a repro. Don't pay too much $5 or less is fair. Regards,

Will the 8 round 7.62x25 Czech strippers intended for the CZ submachine guns work in the C96.

No, but they do work in the Steyr Hahn 1911 pistols. Usually need some polishing to work smoothly.

5.56mm/.223 stripper clips used to load magazines can be adapted to the C96 as well.

Most useful information, thanks.

While you PROBABLY can do this, I have tried this and have had little luck with the results.

The .223 chargers do work getting my 7.62X25 brass that I make from worn out, cut-down, 223 cases into my Broom, but the case heads of the 7.62X25 and 9mm ammunition are just slightly too big to fit in the channel of my .223 chargers. They need more 'adapting' than I have been able to figure out.

I only have 3 brass clips for my red C9 and they work good.

If you can find a clip that will hold the bolt back and stay in, then keep it. When bolt stays back, I can manually press in 9mm rounds into the mag.

I'm curious what kind of stripper clips are in this box. 20 rounds of 9x19, on two 10rd stripper clips. I can't think of another pistol that this would be for besides a Red 9, and I've never seen another box. I don't wanna be the one to open it though..
