Garand 8 round clips

[je25ff]

Anyone know what the going price is for these? I'm seeing some ridiculous prices, as in $25.00/clip. That's GB though, so who knows.

Amazon has some for about $2 ea that I bought very recently.

How many are you looking for?

Wow $25 a clip?!

 

[je25ff]

They were a buck or two each at CMP...check them out.

I'll check it out. I have my C&R and haven't looked into CMP very much yet.

How many are you looking for?

Just put a bid on 20 for about .70 cents a piece.

last nov. at one of the shows. guy had a 5gal.bucket full of them.

$2 bucks apiece,
he offered me the whole bucket for $100.

missed opportunity.

Yeah, and some dude is selling one 8 round clip (loaded) for $55.00 with silver tip API rounds. Shenanigans over there sometimes.

The CMP E-Store has them 25 for $20 bucks. Just got some, they looked brand new.

I was just at a fleamarket today. $1 a clip. i have a bunch so I did not buy them. listening to you guys, i guess i should pick them up.

I think $1 a clip is ridiculous. I know that's about the going rate, but when I was buying them 10 cents was normal and that was only a few years ago.

i completely agree with you, but i am looking at guys thankful at $2 a piece. (and $25!- now that is ridiculous)

Your C&R does little for buying from the cmp. The cmp clips are from what I have seen mostly from the Greek surplus ammo. I believe they made in Germany. Over the past several years the price seems to vary.

For the past several years this seems to be the norm. For at least 5 years now a member at my club will give me. 50 cents each for clips.....10$ for the bandolier with clips and cardboards. 12$ for the ammo cans they ship the loose stuff in.

Je25ff,
The ones I just loaded appeared to be brand new. No marks, no rust, and no signs of being loaded.

 

[je25ff]

Finally went through the entire CMP website. What a gem this is. Thanks, guys.

Be prepared to wait a good 2 months for shipping They are insanely backlogged. But best prices around a great program to support!

 

[JFR2]

That's why I chose not to get them from CMP. I needed them in a reasonable amt of time. Paid a little more but had them in hand.

USGI are the best, but are pricey. The CMP ("CMP3" stamp) clips are good. I bought a bunch and a couple caused a 7th round stoppage, but the same clips worked flawlessly after I hit them with 0000 steel wool and polished the thick and fresh parkerizing. I have some Aggressive Engineering ("AEC3" stamp) clips that I got off Amazon, and most of those had to be polished to work flawlessly. I'd buy the CMP clips again without a doubt, but I wouldn't get the AEC3 again.
