Not a huge fan of Rock Solid (for obvious reasons) but these are just flat out genius: http://www.rocksolidind.com/zipper-strips-announcement/

i guess this would be great if you are doing a custom modern tactical bubba mosin build. haha

pretty nice the way it works

i find it amazing by the variety of products for mosin nagants these days. especially since they doubled in price and are harder to get these days.

I use the stripper clips that come with the Soviet surplus ammo. They work fine and they are already paid for.

In the time it takes to load the zipper with ammo you could have just hand loaded your rifle.

Get some Ishevsk stripper clips for 2-3 dollars each and spend 15 minutes practicing your loading technique. This product is stupid. Twice as long as a traditional stripper clip, and made to prey on those who've purchased the crappy Chinese made clips.

Once they are broken in and you have practiced even the cheap Chinese clips work

I'm sitting there at the bench with all the time I need, nobody holding a stopwatch on me, nobody shooting at me. I can leisurely remove one round at a time from the box, place it in the rifle, push it down, and repeat four more times. I would pay someone to stand there and load the rifle for me before I sent even a penny to some Bubba outfit for whatever piece of crap that thing is they want to sell. Give people like this money and they just use it to find new ways to butcher up the rifles.

Maybe he has gas, or somebody just of camera is pointing a gun at his head. Don't look like he is having fun, probably a trap shooter dragged over to demonstrate how to load a Mosin.
