Dont know much about these so sorry if this is a newb question. Was told these are circle 10 mags but they dont have the circle 10 mark. Only marks are the "2" and on the back towards the bottom there seems to be two very small diamonds. They have the metal feedlips and lock tabs. Btw these are 5.45 mags

Sorry for the crappy phone pics.
They are definitely not Bulgarian mags as bulgy Mags are either circle 10,21 or 25 depending on the plant. Those are likely polish tantal poly mags which are virtually identical to bulgy mags aside from markings of course
Didnt think they were bulgy from what I've searched. These still good mags?
Yep they are the early Polish poly mags

Yep those are literally no different than bulgy mags if they have metal reinforced feed lips and locking lugs.
Didn't they start importing smooth sided Bulgarian mags a few years ago? I've never handled one so I don't know how they are marked, but I believe that they scored pretty well in a recent shotgun news magazine test.
Yes they did, in black & clear.. There pretty good(better when they were $8)Quote:

To be honest they look like they were sanitized East German bakies painted black.Quote:

This may be an odd question but what does sanitized mean. First thing that comes to mind is sanitized like medical equipment, but why would I give a rats backside if a Mag is sanitized??Quote:

Some countries would give aide to other countries against Geneva Convention and such,hence the sanitization of the parts..
Yea To me it doesn't make a difference if there scrubbed or not,but some people get all fuzzy warm about authentic stuff..
Yep bob is right ahh such a shame they ground off the mold number. I love East German bakies
I was thinking about it the other day,correct me if I'm mistaken Justin.
I think the black painted East German bakies were Polish issue.
The Poles had a shortage on tantal mags when they deployed and took up the slack with the German mags but painted them black to fit in with the rest..
That is correct bob Poland used black painted DDR bakies not the germans
