I don't recognize the barrel marks. The magazine looks Argentina with the wear patterns and the number but the font looks different. The magazine was originally full blue if Argentina.

Barrel looks to be a commercial replacement, and the mag is someone's poor attempt to make a full blued Argentine pinned base magazine something it's not......
