Stripper Clip Guides for PTR91/G3???

Is there such a thing as a stripper clip guide for these rifles??
I have them for my M1A (M14), but don't recall seeing any for the G3 type rifles.
A link would be helpful if available.
THANKS!!

Well, there's one made for the CETME and will work with HK rifle mags, but apparently you have to hold the mag in place to use it: https://www.apexgunparts.com/product...c7efbfda529736

Also not the cheapest loading product out there. That's the big reason I don't have one to feed the mags for Jessica (My Spanish Lady).

It looks more like an "appliance" than a simple, stamped piece of sheet metal like used on my M1A.

THANKS!!

Yup. That's what it is. I've read accounts (not sure how true they are or if it's just marketing hype... probably the latter, though) that they were used by armories in Spain to load up the mags to send out with their troops, so it's not like they were looking at man-portability.

Other than that, I'm guessing the universal Mag-LULAs are going to be your best option, but they don't use clips. Barring that, as far as I know, it's down to Magazine Loader, Mk. 1... aka: Thumb.

I tried using stripper clips by themselves to load the magazines. To say it didn't work well is a very large understatement. The MK 1 works best. I just do two or three magazines at a time if I know I'm going shooting in a few days and it works OK.
