Carbine Magazine Question

**Vernon Morris** · 03-13-2011 04:57 PM

Recently acquired a 15 round magazine am wondering about markings on it. on the back is KSG (marked up side down). On the bottom is marked a K. The base plate is what I refer to as a type 1 no drain hole an no indentations.Wondering if some one could shed some light on this particular magazine. Thanks Vernon Morris

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Keller Brass Co. for Saginaw Gear.
Maybe a type 2 baseplate?

It's Keeler.

Fat fingers on the key board, sorry.

It is type two, but I have never sen one with a marking on the base.

I'm a little late responding, but the K stamped bottom plate must be common. I just checked some I purchased recently, and I have (2) KSG and (1) K.I. with Type 2 bottom plates that have the K on them. - Bob
