As a member of law enforcement I often encounter items that may be of interest to members here. I just acquired a interesting standard capacity P-mag of a type and color I haven't seen before.
On the surface it appears to be a standard MOE windowed FDE P-mag but the color is different (more of a coyote color) and has the newer blue type follower. Also this one has a NSN number molded in which I haven't encountered before.

Here's some pics:

Im not an expert on pmags but I can see that one is an M2 while the other is an M3..

China knockoff's would be my bet...

ETA:

Lots of dimensions on the odd-ball appear to be different (making it easier to make).

It appears to be the new USMC PMAG w/ the Army's (POS) EPM follower.
ETA:
NSN (Mag) - https://store.armyproperty.com/products/magazine-cartridge-5-56mm-30-round-nsn-1005-01-659-7086-medium-coyote-tan-mct-with-window.html

OR

So they took a good product, and placed a follower in it from the Army's attempt (and failure) at reinventing a solid product.

Yay Army!

CavSct1983= dream crusher!

I think you nailed it. These mags came from a soldier in 10th SF group at Ft. Carson. I don't think they are knock offs.

And here I thought this was going to be some kind of rare mag coup....[facepalm]

As far as the ordinance department goes, it's not "could" it's "does".
