Good day to all members.
Here is a photo of the charger clip ( Mannlicher style) of the Mauser commission rifle . Notice the web/link in the extractor groove of the round lying outside the charger clip. There is a web/link on the sides of the round in the extractor groove. Am I correct if I presume these webs/links were there to align the round in the charger clip?
This charger clip worked differently ( Mannlicher) than the later Mauser military charger clips M98 models?

I really would like to hear from members in this regard.

Regards
