AK47 30rd Magazine - Surplus

Romanian Issue AK Magazine

This is a 30-round steel magazine for AK-pattern rifles in 7.62x39mm, originally issued to the Romanian Army. It suits shooters who want spare magazines built to a military standard, and collectors who want issued kit instead of a commercial copy. The ribbed steel body and curved profile are the same layout found on standard AK47 magazines.

Features

• 30-Round Capacity — Holds thirty cartridges, the standard load for an AK47 magazine.
• 7.62x39mm Chambering — Built for the 7.62x39mm cartridge, the intermediate rifle round the AK47 was designed around.
• Steel Body — The magazine body is stamped steel, which resists the knocks a polymer magazine can crack under.
• Pressed Reinforcing Ribs — Vertical ribs run the length of each side panel, with shorter ribs near the base, to stiffen the body against flexing and denting.
• Curved Profile — The pronounced curve follows the tapered 7.62x39mm case so rounds stack evenly and feed in line.
• Front Locking Lug — A lug at the top front hooks into the rifle's magazine well, the first half of the AK's rock-in insertion.
• Rear Catch Tab — A tab at the back engages the rifle's magazine release when you rock the magazine rearward to lock it in place.
• Black Finish — A dark finish covers the steel body.
• Romanian Army Issue — Supplied as originally issued government equipment, not a commercial aftermarket part.

Fit And Provenance

The magazine uses the standard AK rock-in pattern. Seat the front lug, then rock the magazine back until the rear tab clicks into the release, so it fits AK-pattern rifles with a standard 7.62x39mm magazine well. As Romanian military issue, it was made for service rifles rather than the commercial market, which is why shooters stock up on it and collectors of Eastern Bloc kit want it.
