For a CCW you’re looking at a magazine. I don’t know many pistols that use stripper clips.
In short, it’s all about capacity. Stripper clip capacity are restricted to the guns internal magazine capacity. Typically 6 to 10 rounds on most mil-surplus rifles. An external magazine is unrestricted to the capacity. I have an RPK that has a 75 round drum!
As for the speed of reloading a magazine verses a stripper clip, well there are a lot of debates on this that I won’t get into. You can read about these arguments on various gun forums.
However in California we can “legally” only have 10 rounds max within any gun. On my AR’s and AK’s I need a bullet button (The magazine release button needs a tool to function). So carrying around a bunch of 10 round stripper clips is more efficient than carrying around bulky magazines that only hold 10 round. In California I think stripper clips have the advantage. That’s the beauty of an SKS.
