Sold for: $70
Description
This lot consists of a trio of detachable steel box magazines designed for use with M14 or Springfield Armory M1A pattern rifles chambered in .308 Winchester or 7.62x51mm NATO. The group includes two 10-round capacity magazines and one 20-round capacity magazine, providing a versatile range of options for target shooting or competition. Each magazine is constructed from stamped steel and features a durable matte grey Parkerized finish and standard steel followers with vertical guide ribs. Key markings include vertically aligned manufacturer stamps on the front spine of the magazines; specifically, the rightmost magazine in the provided imagery displays the characters C, M, and I, signifying manufacture by Check-Mate Industries, a primary contractor for military and commercial M14 magazines. The magazines utilize a standard latching mechanism with a square magazine catch hole on the front spine and a locking lug on the rear.
Condition report:
The magazines are in good overall condition, exhibiting a well-maintained Parkerized finish with typical signs of use. There is light finish wear primarily visible along the high edges, contact points, and where the magazines interface with the rifle magwell. Surface scuffs and minor scratches are present on the bodies, but there is no evidence of significant denting, deformation, or corrosion. The steel followers appear to move freely under spring tension, and the feed lips are straight and free of damage.
