Someone in the us making them?
I bet the cost will be double what the real ones are too

Thanks for the heads up.
I've got some of the fiber ones, but always have to baby them so they'll last. I'll definitely buy some of these. |

I am dead on at the heart of the target demographic (I bought my first K31 about a month ago), and I really question the cost.
$13 for one or $20 for two? I'm curious how they work, but I'm not even tempted at that price. I know with polymers products, it's the engineering and tooling that holds most of the production costs. I think they should shoot for volume instead of margin. Offer a 10 pack for $30 or so, and I'll be much more interested. |

Originals can still be found for $7 each, at least that was the last price I seen at the shows. No way I'd pay that for a polymer one.

This is a great idea! The CMP match shooters will be all over these (me included).
ETA: It might sound like a lot of money for a stripper clip, but considering the amount of money that we spend on the rifle, shooting mat, spotting scope, shooting coat, leather match sling, shooting glasses, data books, cart to haul it in, ammo, match fees, etc, $20 for a pair of strippers sorta gets lost in the noise.

Will they hold six rounds or only five?

I might buy two for use in matches but no more than that at that price point.

The price is going to have to come down a little

I got a dozen of them with cases of GP11 back when I was buying K31's for $79 from AIM. Given the cost of the originals these days the polymer price does not seem that far off for a longer lasting alternative.
