Howdy all.  My brother got a box o' mags and there are a few I can't help him identify.  I dont have a way to upload photos, so I will describe them as best I can.  There are 3 polymer .22lr handgun magazines that have an extended finger rest baseplate. All polymer body, 10rds, only marking is '.22 long rifle' on left side of baseplate area.  I was thinking Beretta but none of the pictures I could find match.
Next are 2 .308 win rifle magazines, polymer bodies, single stack.  A metal U-shaped piece inside the body is attached to the follower at the rear of the magazine. Looks like it holds 5 rounds, and what I am guessing are recesses on the sides right above the floorplate for the mag catches. '.308 win' marked on left side at front of mag. Floorplate slides on from front.
Last are 2 more .308/.243 magazines.  These 2 are metal, have a plastic feedramp built into the front of the mag, are doublestack, mag catch at front bottom of mag, and have 2 witness holes on the spine.  They look to told 10-12 rounds and are marked '.308 win' over  '.243 win'.  
If anyone has any ideas what these could be I would appreciate any pointers, as I am trying to help my brother offload/sell as many of these as I can.  I have tried a couple of online magazine identification guides but no luck so far.  I can also email pics if someone else can host them.  Thanks.

The 22's could be for a Beretta 92 conversion kit.  If so I would be interested in them.

The double stack 308/243 could be for a Browning BAR/Reminton 760 gun.

Sorry, the .22 mags look to be for a dedicated 22 pistol, not the same as the conversion pic on Beretta website.  The rifle mags arent it either, they are square and boxy like a FAL mag and a little over 3 inches top to bottom.  Thanks though, at least my ddescription just got a little bit better.

The .308 single stacks might be from a Sako.

Hopefully these photos work.  First is the .22 magazine, looks familiar to me but I have no idea why:

Next the polymer single stack .308 magazine:

The first mag looks like a sig/hammerli trailside magazine.

I could use some spares if the price is good. Send me an IM.

Thats it!  Thanks very much.  I will let my brother know what that one is and when he prices it to sell it I will post it in the EE.  Woot! now for the rifle mags......

The polymer .308 mag looks like a sig tactical 2 mag.

Wow, you nailed that one!  My brother will be pleased when he sees that!  Now the only thing left is the double stack metal mags.  Dare I guess some sort of Sig product?  Thanks
