Does anyone know the origin of this mag

Looks like an RPK 40 round mag?

Looks like someone done a damn good job of accomplishing nothing.

It actually looks like someone took some AK47 mags that were originally modified to be mags for an AR15 in 7.62x39 and RE-modified them to fit an AK again. Either that or they expertly modified some SKS mags OR Mini 30 mags to use in an AK47.

ETA........Either way it's still kind of

At this point I think your modified AR15 mag idea is most plausable.
The finish on the whole thing matches quite well and even the spot welds on the upper and lower sections are very similar.

The top of the mag is definitely the Chinese "all stamped" style mag.  Not sure what the 30rnd mag body is.  How many rounds does it hold?  Probably a US hack job.  Does it work well?

Uhhhh.....no.



That's just a cheap Triple K or USA magazine. That's how they're made.

Piece of shit.

I hadn't seen one before, it came with a parts kit I got third hand.
It does seem rather poorly made.

Still leaves me wondering WHY someone would have done a mag like this. It still looks like someone made this mag out of two others.

Definitely USA brand. I bought one exactly like it a few months ago for next to nothing. It's function is almost non-existant. Bunched up too damn much.

I think it's because they make SKS, AK, and 7.62x39 AR-15 mags.

They just make a various capacity bodies and spot weld them to whatever "head" they need for the gun the magazine in intended for.

It's not a home-brew. That's how they look straight out of the bag.

The designer of this P.O.S. must have smoked a piece of crack the size of a Peterbilt right before he sat down at the drawing board.
