Up for sale is four new in wrap M14 mags. The mags are taiwanese manufacture and have a blued in finish. From what I understand the mags were made on US equipment supplied to taiwan. The mags function flawlessly and look good. The price is $20 a mag or $75 for all of them, I'll cover shipping.

Taiwanese M14 magazines:
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, a small number of high quality magazines were imported
from Taiwan. Production resumed around 2006. These can be identified by their bright blued finish. They were made on U.S.
government supplied tooling at the Taiwanese national arsenal, to U.S. military specifications,
except for final finish. (They are blued rather than phosphate coated.) Most fit and function
quite well. However, a few have deformed followers, which cause the bolt to no always lock
open after the last cartridge is fired. The only sure fix for this is to replace the follower.
These are not to be confused with the profusion of after-market blued-steel magazines you
see at gun shows.
