Charger Clips: Who thought of it first?

[Adam Helmer]

I have an old milk bucket full of charger clips and today I finally sorted them all out. Some are Mauser type, some are Mannlicher and some are all the rest. Charger clips really did fill a need and they are neat to have and use as I do daily here on the farm. I will do some reading tonight, but does anyone know who thought of the charger clip first?

Ok, who never saw or used a charger? Well, go get some!
