Title: Q re Magazine - 20rd
Post by: Expat8 on September 12, 2012, 02:08:18 PM

Got me a dozen of army surplus as-new magazines ... there is a stamp on the bottom left, two crossed swords. Does anyone know what that means? See the picture (bad quality, cellphone pic)

The crossed swords logo is the symbol of the Czech Army.  They've used that symbol on their uniform buttons and all equipment since the Twenties, right through communism, and right into the modern day.
