I ceracoated the bottom 2" of my 6.8 mags Jesse James blue to denote them as 6.8's
I use Pmags with the dot matrix on the bottom inch to fill in the dots with a paint pen as to which grain bullet they are loaded with.
I dont number my mags.
I hated going to weddings. All the grandmas would poke me and say "You're next". They stopped that when I started doing it to them at funerals.

I don't mark my mags. No need to. Any troublemakers are immediately withdrawn and fixed or discarded. The good ones see regular rotation.

Paint pen.

Training mags get a T, regular mags get a symbol and number.  300 Blk mags get a 30.

No markings on mine

I use paint pens from Hobby Lobby. I mark mine only with my initials so they don’t get mixed up with others. I don’t number them. If it’s a trouble mag I mark it in the field for evaluation later, but I usually end up trashing them when I get home. The ammo cost more than the mag trying to troubleshoot them.

Pmag- 55gn 5.56
Metal mag- steel core
20 round Pmag- hollow point SD ammo
Brownells has great quality components at low prices with fast shipping and excellent customer service.
