Vz58 Service Magazine
This is a 30-round 7.62x39mm magazine made for the Czechoslovak vz. 58 service rifle and issued to the Czech Army. If you own a vz. 58 or a rifle built to take its magazine, this is the correct magazine for it. It is not interchangeable with AK-47 magazines, even though both rifles fire the same cartridge. Shooters running a vz. 58 and collectors putting together a period-correct kit are the people who need it.
Features
- 30-Round Capacity — It holds a full 30 rounds, the standard service load for the vz. 58.
- 7.62x39mm Chambering — It feeds the intermediate rifle cartridge used across Warsaw Pact service rifles of the era.
- Double-Stack Design — Rounds sit in two staggered columns inside the body, so it carries 30 cartridges without becoming excessively long.
- Ribbed Aluminum Alloy Body — Pressed ribs run the length of a light alloy body to stiffen it against flexing.
- Lightweight Build — The empty magazine weighs about 0.42 lb (0.19 kg), noticeably less than a typical steel magazine.
- Curved Profile — The body follows the curve of the tapered 7.62x39mm case so rounds stack and feed in a straight line.
- Ribbed Floorplate — A flat, ribbed base plate closes off the bottom of the magazine.
- Vz58-Specific Fit — It is made for the vz. 58 magazine well and will not fit AK-pattern rifles.
Czech Army Issue
This magazine is original Czech military issue, made for the rifle Czechoslovakia designed for its own forces in place of the Soviet AK. It shares the AK's cartridge but uses its own lighter alloy magazine and a different locking arrangement. Genuine issue magazines are built to the army's own specification, which is why vz. 58 owners and collectors look for them.

Surplus magazines worth buyingJust got these magazines in 2 days which was amazing. They fit perfectly in my Vz58 rifle and feed smoothly without any issues. The aluminum construction feels durable and well-made for military surplus gear. Already taken them to the range multiple times and they work flawlessly every single time.
Lightweight aluminum design doesn't add much weight to your rifle load

Should have ordered twice as manyI bought four of these. Upon arrival I found them to be in either like new or maybe even new condition. I mean, they were flawless. I have used that carbine in two tactical carbine courses, and the performance of both the rifle and the mags was flawless. I hope they get more in soon.

Good but a little wornI ordered 6 of them. Shipping and handling to Atlanta, GA was 3 days. Shipping price was fair. Mags have functioned great, no issues. The only thing I would say is mags had more used then I expected. Most of the finish on the plate cover and mag insert was gone. But for $14.95 you can't find a better deal.

very reasonableI ordered 6 of this milsurp mags. Two of them were more or less brand new, 1 was like new, and 3 were well used with pretty worn finishes. None of the followers seem to be cracked and all appear to be in working order. I would buy again in a heartbeat.

Good Price, Excellent Customer ServiceI ordered three of these magazines. Two were in very good condition, one showed some scratches and a bit of wear on the front lugs. One of the very good magazines would only load 11 rounds before the follower jammed. On further examination the body of the magazine appeared to have been twisted slightly during manufacture. This defect was not really noticable until the magazine was disassembled. Patty authorized a return of the defective magazine and six days later I received a replacement magazine that appears to be brand new (no marks of any kind!). I am very pleased with the price and quality of theses magazines. Even more pleased with the outstanding customer service. Hope to be buying more of these magazines when they're back in stock.
