They're also from Germany. That's the Rheinmetal symbol. Rheinmetal makes lots of BIG German military equipment (tanks and such). Those mags are just as good as anything from HK.
Diamond in a circle logo, what country?
I have a steel G3 mag marked "G3 (diamond in a circle) 3 /63". What country used a diamond in a circle?

Yes, those are Rheinmetal mags. I just purchased 3 for $4 each brand new in the origional packaging at a local fun show. They are made in Dusseldorf Germany. Mine are also dated 6/64. The construction of the mags is very fine, almost as nice as origional HK mags from the same period.
great link

I have several Rheinmetal Mags as well in varying states of newness. Nice stuff. The bolt carrier in my PTR is from them too and I think it is actually nicer than some HK carriers I have seen. It looks like they machine them from one billet rather than weld a pipe on a block, so to speak. Very informative link, btw, LP.
