This came in a box of gun stuff a buddy bought at an estate sale a few weeks ago. From what I can tell, its and M-14 magazine that was adapted to work in a HK91 / G-3. The adapter collar is professionally made (and well made). It is (was) attached by spot welds on the front and back of the collar. One other friend recalled hearing once that the Rhodesians made this conversion when they couldn't get anyone to sell them new equipment, they would adapt stuff they could buy on the surplus market. Whatever the case may be, it seems like a lot of work to turn a $30 magazine into a $15 magazine. Does anyone have any insight as to who / why would inflict this on a perfectly good M-14 magazine?
