    Help with weird markings on mags

    Hello all,

    First time post here. I need some help in finding any information regarding markings on two magazines that I bought from a collector’s collection auction.

    1. Serial# 25130 - no lip or base plate manufacturer markings except for an “F” in a circle on the bottom base plate.

    2. Serial# 71621 - no lip or base plate manufacturer markings except for (IT’S A WEIRD ONE) what looks to be two shaking hands on the base plate.

    Hopefully someone can help! Thank you in advance for your knowledge!

    Welcome to the forum. Both magazines produced by Ballester Molina in Argentina.

    F in oval the second series of magazines produced.

    The other magazine called a "handshake" magazine. The symbol taken from the Argentine crest.

    There's a Magazine Identification sticky at the top of this Magazine forum. Argentina magazine identification starts around post #98.
