Got a bunch of AK/AKM mags here in Astan.  Red painted ones were designated for range use or to ID that they belong to my armory.  Here are 5 different types with pictures.  I do know about the far right one being early pattern Soviet.  Not seeing that many drums or 40 rd RPK mags compared to Iraq.  Thanks for the help.

From right to left, after the Russian Slabside, you have a Yugoslavian magazine as evidenced by the BHO feature and the two straight stampings at the bottom. Next is a chinese mag, as evidenced by the presence and shape of the BHO follower, as well as the "humpback" spine that does not go all the way to the rear locking lug. Next magazine is most likely Russian, but is difficult to verify without seeing any identifying stampings on the spine or elsewhere. The last mag (tan) is a late polish pattern, judging by the follower and the last indented rib making an inverted "L" shape up by the rear locking lug.
