What type of mags are these? What do they fit? The 7.62X39 round will fit in these mags.

What does this mag go to?

On the right is a 7.62X39, what is the round on the left? Was told no markings, will check back when i see it.

That is a Ruger Mini 30 magazine.  Have seen them a lot before.  No idea what the round is, as the Mini 30 takes 7.62X39.

Mini 30 mags definitely.

Round might be a 7.62x54 or a Mauser Round.

7.62x45 Czech round.

Quoted:
7.62x45 Czech round.


That was my first thought as well––it looks nothing like a 7.62x54 that I've ever seen.....

Now the second mag by itself looks different then the other 3. It uses the ammo in the 3rd pic instead of the 7.62X39.

I guess i could have put the story of this up sooner, but it's all good now.
I was called by a friend and asked if i wanted some ammo and mags. He didn't know what it was. Just told me it had some 7.62X39 ammo in an ammo can.
So i said sure, i'll take it. All he wanted was for me to make an offer. I didn't know how much he had so i just said $40.
He said that'll work. I get it and there are about 400 rnds of 7.62X39, maybe 50 rnds of the other ammo, the 4 mags, and a sks fixed mag.
So, i don't think i made a bad deal here.
Although i don't have a mini 30 or anything to shoot the other ammo. lol.
But, i may have to buy a mini 30 now.

Thanks for all the info though.

ETA: After having a moment to research this with some info that you guys helped me with, it seems the 7.62X45 and the mag in the 2nd pic go to a Czech VZ52 rifle. I tried looking them up to see how much they were and they seem to be impossible to find.

Thanks again for all the info. Helped me out a bunch. I made a great deal it looks like. Paid $40 for what i've researched to be about $350 or better worth of ammo and mags.
