Great info! My China 47 mags fit EVERYTHING with no issue! Fantastic mags!

@utuber4841 2 года назад

I have a metal .223/5.56 mag with no markings, and it has one hole on the back of the mag. It has two ribs at the bottom that go across to the front of the mag, it is a Russian made metal mag. The lines at the bottom go all the way across the Yugoslavian mags the two lines stop before the front of the mags.

How about when TF are you guys going to get romanian dong lower handgaurds and surplus bayonets? Any chance if bakelite?

I’m trying to figure out what mags will run in my maadi misr 96-97 import 7.62. Particularly mags that are not super expensive. That would be nice 😊

@gl3618 3 года назад

Could you send me all the mags you have so I can learn for the next 1-60 years? I'm a hands on learner....

@TyroneJohnson-fk6gk 2 месяца назад

Why are my polish mags like greenish instead black black or grayish got them from gunmag warehouse like 2 weeks ago

@GregoryStevens42069 3 года назад

My mag which is likely Romanian has a mark almost like a peace sign stamped on the spine. Anyone ever see something like that before?

@claytonmalcom5720 3 месяца назад

I sifted through the video trying to find my mags. No luck. One is a steel mag, standard 5 rib, pretty light welds, only marking I’ve found is an M inside a circle on the spine. Painted. The other is a steel mag, two ribs on the bottom, slightly deeper welds, I cannot find a single marking anywhere. No spine. And I believe they are blued. Please help

@theimpaler2317 Год назад

So I got this Romanian mag and all it has on it on the back spine is an upside down “5” and closer to the top are two little lines right next to each other which I’m not even sure they’re meant to be there, somebody probably just messed up!

@Bubba-Fudd-bulletsmith 3 года назад

I think I have a east German mag but the letters N J on on it

@alanmcnew5376 4 года назад

Interesting

@gantz4u 2 года назад

I can tell by looking at my mags that theyre not the same, but still have no idea where they come from and some guy tried to carve slavaboo moon runes into one. W?CD I got yur mag bro.

@randyhelton3310 2 года назад

Anyone know what a 20 round Chinese mag with a star on it sells for not much info on it

@peterv1318 Год назад

The Chinese mags are the second best selling AK mags. Prices very on them at one point 50.00 now December of 2022 high end would be 30.00.

@sockfox420 3 года назад

I think i got a slovian ak mag. I got no markings, only two lines at the bottom and its black. Also the welds are light and there are no markings

@sockfox420 3 года назад

Also you should do a vid like this but on the whole gun

@aslanbosnakoglu8240 Год назад

how to id ak 47s?

@halo3soap114 4 года назад

Just fyi guys get a few more lights, that room looks super dark.

@alleycatcapone6163 2 года назад

Is there such a thing as a 40round north Korean steel magazine? Or only south Korean

@peterv1318 Год назад

Yes they have 40 round North Korean mags very hard to get. They have to be smuggled in to America because of the sanctions.

@halo3odst Год назад

i guess my soviet pattern drum mag is Romanian.

@randomactsofriding4850 3 года назад

There are Bulgarian slab sides too and did you miss the waffle Russians?

@turdgoblin6113 4 года назад

Good video, but it looks like it was recorded about 11 years ago.

@matheisgordiz2743 4 года назад

@ddaverr 4 года назад

Can tell alot by the spot welds.

@muddybranch1678 3 года назад

Where were the South Koreans?

@xepaapex3762 4 года назад

I would’ve enjoyed this More is just that I feel like if you have to explain to someone how to differentiate the magazine calibers then this video is obviously gearded for literal brain dead gun buyers, no hate on the channel because the guy (you) talking seems interesting and good personality, but it’s annoying having to sit there and listen to the MOST basic of basic facts. It’s like saying 2+2 is math and math has numbers in it. It’s just annoying cus I’m here for useful information not 2+2

Btw the "bakelite" mags are not made out of bakelite. But what to expect from an English speaking AK community. People even use the name of the prototype (AK-47) instead of the true name - AK.

@strahinjastevic7480 3 года назад

I think most are aware of that but still use it anyway, just like the false pronounciation of Garand.

@strahinjastevic7480 3 года назад

Also you didnt see him doing air quotations when he picked up the east german one.

@cheezychungus967 Год назад

The true Name is AKM.

@BloPsy__ Год назад

@@cheezychungus967 That doesn't apply to AK 1949-1959.

@davidkeeley537 2 месяца назад

Ak-47; No such thing. It's an AK, AKM or an AK-74. Other countries have their on versions. The AK-47 name was a mistake made in a US Army manual that never went away
