Re: Type 57 mags for M1A

It has been a while since I sold my M1A to my brother, but he still has it with a pile of T57 mags. They worked as well as the GI mags and allowed me to keep the good ones pristine.

I got them from Midway and other sources before that. The only problem was some rust on a couple, but I duracoated them and they are still good.

My understanding is the Tiawanese made them on the machines we gave them, so they should ne good. They were functionally identical to my GI mags.
