A friend of mine picked this mag up thinking it would fit my SVT-40 but the minute I saw it I knew it would not. There are NO markings at all on it and it looks like it takes a 8mm round in it BUT could be wrong. The follower has a rear lip that you can see for the first round but goes down into the groove after the first round. You can see the groove in the side view, it is at the rear to teh right as you look at the mag. Any ideas are greatly appreciated, it will be for sale BUT I want to make sure of what to list it as in description. He gave $5 for it so like he said, at $5 no harm, no foul. Know it is not a Hakim mag so Hakim and SVT are ruled out. Here are 5 pictures; top, side, each end, and bottom views. Thanks in advance for ANY info.

    It looks a lot like the mags to my PSL in 7.62x54R. The only thing I see different in this one is that almost all the way back to the end of the feed lips there is a little notch for the rim to go in for top loading.
