Glad to find out the half-dozen mags I bought in the late 90's *actually* were E. German. Whew!!

@bruno112008 Год назад

The early Yugo-mags have a verry unique cut out on the left upper side of the mag for the bolt-holdopen function of the M64-type (milled reciever, screw-in barrel/not pressed in and the bolt hold-open) just up to 1970.

this was very helpful, please do a part 2 with the commercial magazines!

You deserve the gratuitous "leave a comment below" plug. I watched the whole thing. EXCELLENT job! This will be my reference at shows so I'll be watching it dozens of times. I have a few mags and I'm sabot the drop the phone and go look to see what I've got because I had NO idea. Thanks for an incredibly comprehensive insight. It was not boring at all btw. Not to fast, not to slow, not to much, not sparse enough to be useless like some info vids. Well done, perfectly for what I needed.

Watched all the way through. (Watched your other ak47 mag video yesterday) Thanks to your vids I've identified 8 as Hungarian. They have the half moon stamp. 2 others have SOME signs of Romania ...and 8 don't have any obvious markings so I don't know..but I know way more than I did! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us ! 3

@JaayGraam 3 года назад

I have one that's some what similar to the east german, dark bluing and excellent quality, not as rugged looking as most romanians, but even lighter welds near the lugs and on the only makers mark is "y" and about a inch away from that a upside down backwards B, both only on the back rib, any idea what it is?

@kylecarpenter3900 2 года назад

So I have a polish mag, and a yugo with bolt hold open follower. Midway USA is selling the yugo's right now...

@Robespierres_Ghost 3 года назад

Are Bakelites ever being imported again? Or have all that are available been bought up by the US market already?

@payup2023 2 года назад

What magazines are shipping with the new Zastava USA zpaps? Thank you

@josephhatcher9903 11 месяцев назад

Been hunting Chinese magazines. 6 flat backs and one spined so far... If anyone sees a bakelite, please let me know!

@raider762 2 года назад

Seems the later polish mags might stamp the spine with an "S".

@Tula1940_LB 3 года назад

I have a 40rd steel RPK magazine and it appears to have markings consistent with Russian Molot magazines but it does not have a Molot shield. Any thoughts?

@APEXGunParts2020 3 года назад

I would take a look at the finish type, If it is parked it is probably Romanian, and perhaps use a piece of chalk to fill in the markings you see. sometimes stampings aren't seated all the way, and using chalk can help you get a better idea what each marking is. In addition, take a look at the other markings. If they have more shapes than just standalone letters or numbers, that would indicate to me it is russian.

@Tula1940_LB 3 года назад

@@APEXGunParts2020 One side has shapes with numbers in them the other side has Cyrillic letters. Any thoughts? The finish is parkerized over bluing. The weld pattern appears to be consistent with Russian magazines.

@APEXGunParts2020 3 года назад

@@Tula1940_LB without looking at it, I would assume from what you've said that it is Russian.

Triangle 36 is normally associated with PolyTech and Triangle 66 is normally associated with Norinco, but both type were distributed by both exporters.

the bakelites were never used in the communist army, just in the movies ,, also i had people describe the black steel mag shown here as polish ,Romanian,, and now Russian ,,,, what gives ??

@iLikeTigerz101 Год назад

It's ridiculous that you are based off in Colorado springs but can't ship your 30 round mags to someone who lives in Colorado Springs because of the pointless 15 mag law. Even if this guy just lives across the street, you can't ship them the mag.
