Identified by the Triangle Arrow and mold production number. Most have very clear proof ink stamps also (OTK 48, (K), [U], [68]).

All magazines are in Excellent New Old Stock Russian Surplus condition.

We have some great numbers, although the numbers represent which form mold they were made with. Numbers can have their own meaning: 47, 74, 1, 69, or choose your birth year.

There are a few different types to choose from, some are designed earlier and can be identified by key characteristics, for example, a raised ridge on the spine or a tall mag well step. Many options to pick the best magazine to complete your AK with the ultimate aesthetic upgrade. The early magazines had flat floor plates compared to crimped and have non reinforced feed lips. This is identified by 2 faint circles on the inside of the feed lips where the metal plate was installed on the factory line.

Very reliable and durable.
