Mystery Magazine found on mesa

[smlemon]

Was out hiking miles from anywhere and came across this magazine lying in the Sagebrush sea (NW WY).

Posting here because it looks Soviet to me.











A 30-40 Krag almost fits in but I have no 7.62x54 to try in it.

Wonder what it is and how it got there ? A leftover from RED DAWN ?

thanks, Larry

Considering the amount of sand and crud on/in it, I can only guess it was dropped from a CIA black helo using Soviet Block weapons OR maybe Holder lost it during Fast & Furious.

Any value to it ?

Look familiar?

Value would depend on condition. Anywhere from $20 to $40.
