mini-14 mags

I have two mags that are not marked law enforcement only for the Mini-14 .223. I have been looking at some auctions and have noted that several of the mags have "ruger" stamped into the side. My mags have the ruger base plate with nothing else stamped into the side. Are these factory mags or some kind of aftermarket mag? To my knoledge, the base plates have not been switched.

Thanks for the replies

    I have read that the current minis are more accurate than the older pencil barrel ones.
    I would appreciate any comments regarding old vs new mini-14 in 223cal.
    I now own a mini in 223cal.(DOM 1980).
    I assume the 30rd mags I now have will fit a new mini.
    Is this correct?

    Are your mags. 20 or 30 rounders? I believe only the 30's will be stamped on the side. The 20's will only have the floor plates.

    IF YOUR MAGS ARE 20 ROUND MAGS, IT WON'T HAVE THE RUGER NAME STAMPED ON THE SIDE. ONLY THE 30 ROUND RUGER MAGS HAVE IT STAMPED WITH RUGER LOGO ON BOTTOM AND "RUGER" STAMPED ON THE SIDE. THE 20 RND MAGS ARE STAMPED ON BOTTOM WITH RUGER LOGO ONLY. GD
