Do you mean the somewhat rare all-stamped sheet metal Chinese AK mag, or a mag with 'China' stamped on the baseplate?

If the latter, I wouldn't give more than $10 for one. My least favorite mil-spec AK mag variety

The all stamped sheet metal magazine. No machine metal part at the top.

OP emailed me pics. Definately Chinese "all stamped" AK mag in what appears to be unissued condition.

At one time they were pretty uncommon.

The guy at the local gun show doesn’t differentiate those mags from the other surplus metal mags he sells. $15 each, & I took all he had because they looked “different”. GARY
