    early magazines

    I have an early magazineAttachment 87731Attachment 87730Attachment 87729 with the number 2 stamped on the case rib, with a ConD 11* rifle that I was able to purchase back in the 1990's. All of the early magazines that I have found in the USAicon were the third variation with the flat spring riveted to the case rib with the number 3.

    My question, are these early number 2 magazines common in the UKicon ? as I have never seen one for sale in the USA unless it was in a rifle.

    Not common, but not unknown. I've got one on the very early commercial Mk.3 that I have.
