Does anyone mark magazines

I do mark my mags with narrow strips of various colored reflective tape. Yellow for my AR mags red for my USP mags white for my 4095 blue for my 459. 1 to tell at a glance which mags are for which gun. ( keep in mind I have 4 guns and 35 mags in my ammo locker) and 2, when training at work and we do combat reloading, and have 7 guys on the team shooting and training in day and night conditions. I know which mags are mine and the reflective make them a whole lot easier to spot at night.

 

Get some of those little colored stick on dots.Green good to go.Red needs adjustment.That way you can just peel them off afterwards.

 

Only ones I have marked other than with my initials in paint pen, are my 4595 & 4095 mags. Even with multiple guns, in a hurry, theres never confusion over which mags go to each gun, except the HPs because they are almost identical. So a big 40 or 45 was put on them.

 

I have marked some of my PMags for the odd ammo. I have mostly M855 and some M193, plus a few in tracer and reloads. All the frangible is gone, my son in his "wisdom" used that up. Now how can I shoot steel at close range safely?


Great idea to mark mags, for tweaking. Seems we all have our various reasons...

 

I mark all my mags. Use fingernail polish I pilfer from my girls!

 

I have several 9mm and M1 Carbine mags. I mark them so I will get an even use.

 

I mark mine can awalys tell which is mine at the range and which one is acting up and needs a rebuild.

 

Yep, I do the same thing. Usually write the date on them too.

 

Absolutely mark mags. Only way to keep it straight if one goes south.

 

I put painters tape on them if I have a issue with one. It gets fixed or tossed.

 

Yes I use those fluorescent colored decals on all of my mags such as my AR mags especially those filled with m855 or m193 . Do this so I can quickly change mags and know what is in them

 

I use Metallic Sharpies



I mark that stippled area on my PMags, and these also show up well on all the blued mags of various makes. Really stands out!

 

Is this like 'marking time'...?

I number my magazines so that I can switch out the operational ones, in order, prior to each trip to the range.

 

I was just wondering as I have a factory .45 mag that jammed in the carbine. I thought it might have been the ammo as 1 or 2 were set back. Turned out it was the mag.

What do you mark your plastic mags with (Glock+AR)

 

I identify my mags using those small circular self adhesive florescent orange decals

 

Metallic Sharpie, duh

 

Won't flake off?
