What's this magazine for?

[COLTIMPALA]

I assumed this was as good of place as any to ask. I came across a couple of these some time ago. They have no markings besides an "0M" on the lower back of the magazine. The person they came from also had a ton of linked ammo and milsurp stuff dating back to gos knows when if that's any clue. They accept 308, but 30-06 is too long. Maybe HK/CETME?

M14?

Yeah this does not look like G3/Cetme.

M14?

That's logical. The guy who previously owned all the stuff had passed away and the son didn't know much about any of it. Everything I saw was American otherwise.

What's this magazine for? It's for holding ammunition.


I agree, that looks like a standard 20rd M14/M1A magazine. The ammo will likely have a NATO cross and a date stamp. as well as country of manufacture, most likely US (LC).

Correction: for the M1A Socomm that I have!
