AK 47 ?

Do the mags have any stamps?

Other than that, they are Eurocommie surplus mags.

They should last you for a long time.

My guess is chugo.

Definitely a great magazine whatever it is.

Tag to see what tge experts say.

I have about 20 of that. Bought them awhile ago as Euro surplus mags. Haven't touch them yet (beside packed them in 50cal ammo can).

Should be quality mag.

Chinese with Yugo BHO followers, aka "chugos."

Thanks guys but these do NOT have BHO followers. The BCG cycles completely when I charge it with mags inserted.

The followers stop short from coming up high enough to hold the bolt open, like they do on my Yugo BHO mags.

Chinese flatback.

I agree. Chinese flatback. It also only has two ribs down at the bottom as the Chinese mags do.

Among the best mags around.

It apparently does have a BHO follower. Why these do not catch the bolt in your gun is unknown.

The Chinese mag followers look similar to a BHO follower but they don't sit high enough to actually catch the bolt.

I have two AKs and they are definitely not BHO followers. I have Yugo mags with BHO followers that do catch the bolts in both my AKs so I'm quite sure it's not the AKs.

I have a Chinese flat back that looks just like that.

Yep, they look similar but the are not made to hold the bolt open. The mag has two little tabs that keeps the follower from going up too high. Pretty much all AK mags, except the Yugo mags have tab to keep the follower from interfering with the bolt.
