RoscoeTurner Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 The top one with the crown is Swedish and I am pretty sure the bottom one is as well. Been I a long time since I dealt with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the other stamp is the actual location of mfg or plant code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekraps Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 I just pulled the 5 units I have, three are unmarked (Finnish) and two are Crown (Swedish) with one of the two having a "J" in a box in addition to the crown mark. thanks for bringing this topic up, I have two "K's" one Crown on Wilson and the other Port Said on Wilson, so the Crown coffin mags will match the Crown K.

StrangeRanger Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Shouldn't the Finnish mags be marked with an SA in a square meaning Finnish Army (Suomen Armeija if Google translate can be believed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJX Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Does the crown indicate that it was made in Sweden or just owned by the Swedish gov? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
