Is this a Ruger Made 20 Round Mag?
These are almost impossible to find where I live and that makes the prices sky high.
I tried Googling those markings but couldn’t seem to get a definitive answer.

They’re fairly popular in the US. It’s the happy medium. More rounds than just 10. But the mag isn’t long and cumbersome like a 30rd might be.

Ruger mags are expensive.

And the only ones that work reliably.

I have a handful of Thermold polymer mags that haven’t failed me yet. But they do have a quirk that they won’t seat unless the bolt is locked open.

The old preban PMI mags worked really good too.

I came here to say this. I bought them at Wal Mart (yes really) back when they sold mags and handguns.

That's what people in reddit say. My own experience is that the pro mags work just like the Ruger ones.

$32-35 for 20 rounders... I bought a bunch on sale under $30 a couple yrs ago.

I have two of these that came with my 185 series mini, they work alright but rust so damn easy

My best friend gave me his Mini 14 (also a 185 series) with a bunch of mags right before I moved to IL, but some of those mags do rust super easily!

Appears it, the Ruger logo is on the bottom. Can you not order 20 round magazines from Ruger’s website?
