Weird 416 mag help
Hey can anyone help on ID this 416 mag? I first thought it was a Korean copy gone bad but with that Hk stamp at bottom it may be made by HK.

Standard mag is on the left, odd one on the right. Also note the indentations in the leading edge of body of the odd one in the first photo - the follower is shorter than standard and runs up in front of the indentations.
might be a diff caliber .. i kno they made a 6.5 mag to
Don't think if could be for a 6.8? I know a lot of the 5.56 mags can be made to fit the 6.8
Looks like a 6.8 follower to me. HK made a small batch of 6.8 mags for field trials and testing.
Whats the company that is making copys of HK mag's for korean's.
Ted Nugent on deer hunting.
He was being interviewed by a British journalist. The journalist asked,"What do you think the last thought is in the head of a deer before you shoot it? Is it, `Are you my friend? Or is it, Are you the one who killed my brother?'"
Nugent replied, "They aren't capable of that kind of thinking. All they care about is, 'What am I going to eat next, who am I going to screw next, and can I run fast enough to get away.' They are very much like the French in that way

From the photos you have posted you have a 5.56mm Blank Firing Safety Magazine produced by HK GmbH in Germany. The front image shows two openings were the latch would otherwise be located. Someone has removed them. This magazine was initially created for the British Army for use in their SA80A2's along with the Safety Blank Firing Adapter (SBFA) and has since been adapted for the HK416, M4, M16, etc. With the latches in place it is designed not to accept more than 3 live rounds. Why 3? Because the SBFA will "catch" up to 3 live rounds. Both were developed to eliminate deaths caused in training were live rounds get mixed in black firing magazines. The Germans use a similar SBFA on the G36 and MP7.

History of HK - the insiders story
Thanks Kiwi
Wrote many: G11 manuals, 1st USP manuals, MP5/10 and MP5 Family manuals, etc., etc. :)
Some of the old timers from HK are collecting notes for the real inside story of HK. Should be a good, interesting read! Look for it in the check out isle at your local grocery store.
