Anyone know what the fair value on some military mags for a 30 carbine.It looks like the shorter ones are 15rds and the longer ones are 30's so I have benn told. The 15 rds are in gerat shape, the 30 rd mags have got a few dings and the base plates don't seem to fit super tight.They are stamped M-2

    If the 30-rounders are "hardbacks" (no slot on the side at the apex of the curve), they are worth quite a bit more than the after-market and later 30-rounders, even if they have some small dents. Fifteen-round Carbine magazines are still inexpensive because there are millioins of them.

    the 30 rd ones marked m2 go for about $18.00 in good shape, the 15 rd new in wrap go for $9.00. these prices are from the last gun show i was at, about 3 weeks ago. u.s. g.i. 30 rd were $25.00.
