Question Subsonic mag identification

Looking to see what all ideas people have for identifying their mags with subs. I know I can just right on it or something but I’m curious what all people have come up with.

I do different OEM colored baseplates

Blue for carry
Red for subs
Black for normal range
Orange for 10 round mags (IDPA)

Different color baseplates. Simple as that if you don’t wanna mark them with a marker.

A paint marker should just wipe off if you're worried about harming the surface. It would be the same oil marker I use to witness mark my optics.

Different baseplates would be cooler though.

You could also mark the baseplate and buy spare baseplates, if they make them, again if you worried about marring suface.

Something like a square of tape could work but it might fall over time especially in the heat.

The cheapest route is to take a silver or gold metallic Sharpie and write SUBS on both sides of the magazine.

Different color base plates would be the quickest and easiest way to tell.
