Some Yugoslavian 30rd steel magazines in 7.62x39mm were manufactured to be bolt hold open.

Is it preferred to have the bolt open follower? I always hear of this option on the forums and didn't know if it was a negative thing or not?

Only works on the Yugo M64 that has the required catch to make it work. Otherwise it performs no differently to any other Commbloc AK mag.

It should, I'm thinking, stop any bolt in its tracks, so to speak. So, why only the Yugo? Perhaps you're right, I don't know, but I'll have to check it out, and see. @OP, were all of the mags BHO, Yugo, mags? And, how many, if you don't mind me asking? |

Mine are BHO & work fine in my WASR's. Have to mod the safety to keep the bolt back when taking the mag out but locks back on every empty mag. |

Oh wait, I thought you were talking about the mags with the side cut for the separate BHO mechanism.
My bad! Yes, the folower with the square back will work on any 7.62 AK. |

I got 7 Yugos out of an order of ten recently from Classic Firearms. One of the mags was for the M64 with the follower replaced. IT was quite a nice surprise at that price.

I bought 6 and all of them held the bolt open on my AES-10B. |

Well the 5 I just got are not BHO followers. Standard followers sunk into the mag. Maybe you got a fluke batch, IDK....
They are however in nice shape. |
