Advice on SKS stripper clips

[papersoldier]

I'm always on the hunt for more stripper clips for my SKS rifles and my vz. 58, and finding good ones has always been hit or miss for me, so I thought I'd post this to get opinions on which brand/manufacturer makes the "best" stripper clips.

I've tried a few different brands of (new) Chinese made clips, but they are nearly universally garbage. The best clips I've found so far are the Yugoslavian clips that I got with a crate of M67 ammo. I'd love to get more of those, but finding surplus M67 is pretty much impossible these days.

So, anyone have a preference when it comes to clips, and if so are they still readily available?

It has been a long time since I've had a Simonov, but agreed with your assessment of the Chinese clips; total garbage.

Buy some old surplus ammo on clips if you can find it . The after market stuff is usally junk
