Description
One 20-round detachable box magazine designed for the M14 or M1A rifle platform chambered in .308 Winchester and 7.62x51mm NATO. The magazine features a straight-walled body constructed of stamped steel with a blackened finish and is fitted with a metal follower. The baseplate is secured by integrated metal tabs and includes a single small circular port near the rear edge. No manufacturer markings, logos, or caliber stamps are visible on any of the exterior surfaces or the baseplate. The construction and profile are consistent with military-specification magazines produced for the M14 service rifle and its civilian counterparts. This unit is intended for standard use in M14-pattern semi-automatic and automatic rifles.
Condition report:
The magazine exhibits significant overall surface oxidation, rust, and finish wear across all metal surfaces. Extensive pitting is visible on the body of the magazine. The internal follower is present and appears to move under spring tension, though the unit has not been function-tested with ammunition. The baseplate is securely attached to the magazine body.
