Hi guys, found these going through my stuff. Can't for the life of me remember how I got them, or what brand they are. I must have gone through thousands of images of Google trying to ID them, but can't find their likeness. I'm sure the experts can tell me in two seconds what they are. They seem of decent quality, are they any good? Thanks guys.

The rubber pad has a Metalform logo. But that pad looks like a custom mod. Adding pads to a mag base like that (drilling/tapping) was a 1990s fad but people still do it.
Remove the screws holding the pad on and see what logo or markings is on the actual mag baseplate. It very well could be a Metalform mag (probably is), but it could be a Colt mag or who knows. Take a look under the rubber and see.
Metalform makes good mags. Here is the bumper, you can still buy it.
Shop magazines (722) at Brownells, including rifle, handgun, and shotgun magazines, as well as magazine accessories for reliable feeding and performance.

Not sure of Brand/Trademark. But I've been using what appears to me as the same on a few .45acp magazines.
I have couple similarly marked magazines around here. For me these magazines have been in problem free
and reliable without fail hard during use for about 20 to 30 years at IPSC and USPSA Matches minus the black pad.
So the jury is still out as to their function and reliability record. Unfortunately they are the wrong non-tactical color.
Limited to only 7 rounds of obsolete .45acp cartridges, I'd immediately send them to the scrap drawer at my house.Last edited by hambam105; 05-01-2020, 11:59 AM.Comment
