OK. Obviously they are doublestar.....

They come from a 100 percent military supply depot. I removed them from a bunch of stuff getting tossed in Kuwait myself. However I never saw any in use. Perhaps contractors? I assume that doublestar didn't make them and a good guess is c products.  No cage code or date marks I can see. Anyone have any input?? Thanks in advance.

They are Doublestar.


Can we get a better look at the follower? Like what it looks like internally. That will tell you a lot more.

ETA: This isn't too helpful, but maybe it sounds like what you have? https://www.ar15.com/forums/ar-15/Anybody_know_who_makes_this_mag_for_Doublestar_/17-600276/

^not sure if true, but from this thread:
NHMTG mags are good as well.
Bushmaster, AR Stoner and Doublestar mags are made by CProducts.
DSG, DPMS and Bravo Co. mags are made by D&H...all good to go

The "loop" for the spring attachment is pretty unique... interesting.

IIRC old C-Products followers look like that. Can check later when I get home.

ETA: Pretty sure I have a few around here somewhere. Can't find them at the moment.

Different spring attachment location.
The ongoing racial innuendos are not going unnoticed - tread lightly.

I bought some mags like that several years ago. Same orange follower and black finish. The floor plate had Blackhawk on it. Mine function fine. There isn't really much to tell.

First contract after retiring (Combat Tracker) issued us DoubleStar 16" semi carbines in Iraq.  The DS mags then had a grey follower.  This was 08' Course I replaced my 16" bbl with a 14.5" to mount my M7.  Following footprints downtown Baghdad.
