What are they for?????

Had sometime to look at them better.
The silver ones are for a 7.5 Mas.
One of them was stamped on the back.
The m95 is easy. 8X56r
Right top M14?????
Holds 10 rounds.
Below that one looks like 1903 Springfield.
The ones to the left of them have no markings, the back side is flat, no ribbs.
Maybe for an 8mm Mauser 98k????
Shell rim fits perfect.
The last one is a mystery to me, but some kind of Mannlicher action.

Do the top right clips hold 30-06/8mm Mauser size rims? I would have sworn they were Broomhandle Mauser clips, but if they're bigger than a 9mm/7.62x25 base, then they wouldn't be.

The reason I said that the lower middle clips with the flat back look like early Argentine Mauser clips (7.65 Argentine) was because I had some once that looked just like that, and that's what they were.

The last ones, the mystery Mannlicher clips, are too curved to be Carcano clips. I have several sitting on my desk in front of me. Do a google image search for "Dutch Mannlicher clips", and I think you'll see what they are.

The top right do hold 30.06.
To big for 9mm.
I think have an Argentine Mauser someplace.
I'll see if they fit.
The last ones do look like the "Dutch Mannlicher clips".
Now all I have to do is find one of those to try them in.
