As per title I am about to purchase a 8mm Lebel Berthier rifle.
I have had a look online and can't find many of the clips, it's a 5 shot gun so I'm looking for the more common 5 round clips.
Does anybody know where I can buy them from? original or reproduction is fine.
And the price what would I be expecting to pay? I have seen some that have gone up for sale going for about £15
Thanks

Congrats on your purchase
15 GBP is about the going rate as they are not easy to find - keep an eye on naturabuy.fr "
berthier clip" or "

Also while I'm hear does anybody know where I can buy some factory 8mm lebel?
I am going to reload for this gun but still would like to have some factory ammo.
Any Suggestion?

Fiocci used to make them, but not sure they still do. That leaves you with Pvri, but according to my fellow French club members none have been available for a while. They don't even seem to be making the 7.5x54 at mom
Good luck .
