i have 3 mags and i cant figure out what country they are from. i checked the thread up top and tried google. they are all regular steel 30 round 7.62x39. 2 are stamped with a circle "M", and that is the only marking on them. the other has a couple markings, a diamond with what looks like "OB", diamond with "D", an arrowhead looking thing and a circle "27". at least i think its 27. any help? |

Try here
May help for the one on the right in the pics. The one on the left looks Russian to me for sure. |

yeah i found that a while ago. now im really confused because i cross posted this on theakforum.net and more than one person said the M one was definately hungarian....which goes against the glocktalk thread Quoted: Try here May help for the one on the right in the pics.

Quoted: Check the floorplate retainer on the Hungarian / MOLOT magazines to see if it gray phosphated. If it is I would bet it is Hungarian. yep, its a gray phosphate vs black phosphate on the rest of the mag. i see you found my post on theakforum.  so are the guys on glocktalk wrong about the molot stamp? |
| I don't know if they are wrong about the circle "M" stamp or not. I could be that both varieties share that feature. There is another way to identify the magazine as Hungarian. Take apart the magazine and look at the floorplate retainer again. Does it have a bent piece of sheet metal that goes off at a right angle to the rest of the retainer. If it doesn't it is probably Hungarian. |
