    They are worth $10-20/25 apiece, depending on wear, finish. I found (2) at FWB show last weekend, $25 for both..
    AR-15 Mark makes them Sporter 6920 /40 series type (early) Great mags. Add a MagPul follower and they are fill and forget.. IF they had S/Steel followers and marked M-16......
    looking to sell any? I use them With match ammo in my Proof- Barreled Noveske..

    I have a bunch of the "retro" Colt/Pony mags with the aluminum follower. And some with the 223 and/or M16 marking.
    But would never let them go for the above prices mentioned. Not a year ago . . . and ESPECIALLY not now.
    The two for 25 price is just crazy. You got a great deal. --- SAWMAN

    Depending on what laws get passed, any functional AR magazine could be worth a lot.

    They are worth about $10 bucks, what would you pay for a worn out mag, that may or may not be reliable unless rebuilt
    Rebuild is just a new spring. Messed up feed lips it goes to the dump. One could also put in an improved follower.

    I git these 20 rounders on trade and they look new. I'll be keeping these because there still in the box and I like the 20's a little bit more.

    Those Adventureline magazines don't say "Colt" and don't have the "Pony" on the baseplate. I don't think they are worth anymore than any other twenty round magazine would be worth. Even the Colt branded ones were made by the millions.

    I have a bunch of these mags also. These go with my retro guns ONLY. (MagPuls in the rest)
    Mine are pretty weathered also which is what the retro builders/collectors want. The ones with aluminum followers are earlier than the black plastic. The green plastic is not origional.
    If anyone wants to sell some or trade some,please PM me. I am looking for several different markings. ---- SAWMAN
    ADDED: If the mags are the OK brand they are period correct also. To some people the more westhered the better. I want mine about medium as this is what I remember.
    Hello,
    I’d like to buy couple of them , I know this is an old thread. I have couple oldies 1972 AR 15 sp1. and AR15 A2 HBAR sporter
