Can anyone point me to a list of carbine magazine makers? I acquired a heap for use in a multi-target competition, and have now found quite a variety of initials.

Hello Patrick,
Here is a link, but I would expect some errors.

Some of those mags are probably really hard to find, but haven't been collecting long enough to know. Think there are others who collect mags. Wonder what the hardest one to find might be? IP's are an obvious choice but surely there are others. Wonder if the mag author's site provides a clue based on a red 0? Doesn't look like it has been updated in a while though.
Oh wow!
I had no idea that there are so many variations. Thanks guys for your quick and helpful responses!

With the way the war was going it is no wonder who ever could make mags or gun parts was brought into the mix to aid the cause decentralizing the industries as a whole, hence lots of makers just take a look at the WWI-II with the 303 oiler makers......!
Hundreds of magazine makers - have fun!
6.2 million carbines with a projection of 100 magazines per carbine gives you an idea of just how many could have been made. I don't think the government ever knew just how many were made but at the required amount it's over 600,000,000 magazines.
