magazine I.D.?

Does anyone know if this is a factory russian 10-round makarov magazine? I can't tell.

Dunno'...it's different than the bunch I got with my IZ70 ( imported by KBI). Double stackers are tapered into a single-file configuration at the top of the mag: The single row section is about 3/4" long at the top of the mag, the transition/taper area from double to single is about 1/2 inch long. Will it fit and feed if you put it in the gun??

The only non-factory 10 round Makarov mags I've seen have been Promags, and they don't look like this. Here's a pic of one:

Unfortunately, I don't have a 10 round factory mag in front of me, but here's a picture of what they're selling at makarov.com:



I'll see if I can dig some out when I get home...

Actually it looks like a russian 12 rounder. I have 2 of them and one russian 10 rounder. The 12 rounders haven't been that reliable but the 10 rounder works great. Mark
