And a bit more investigation reveals those pictured mags were made by UI Industries. But fanbois gonna fanboi so glad you made money.
Of the early mags (Colt, Adventureline, Universal, Simmons, Okay) I always used the Simmons in my match rifles. They seemed to work the best for mag changes. I never had a failure to feed with them and never had to pull one out of a rifle.

Signalman First Class Douglas A. Munro
The only member of the US Coast Guard to be awarded the Medal of Honor. Munro was piloting a Higgins boat during the Battle of Guadalcanal. During the battle, Munro was given orders to pick up Marines off of the beachhead and drop them off at Lunga Point. While other ship pilots were starting to retreat from heavy enemy gunfire, Munro pushed forward, retrieved the Marines off of the beach, all while providing covering fire for them.
Once successfully pulling away from the beach, Munro spotted a beached Higgins boat. Still under enemy fire, Munro maneuvered his boat into place where the Marines on board were able to attach a line between the two ships. Once the ship was freed from the shallow water Munro was struck in the base of his skull by enemy gunfire.
One of Munro’s fellow Guardsmen was able to get the two ships to Lunga Point. After the Marines were unloaded, Munro gained consciousness just long enough to ask, “Did they get off?” Munro died shortly after he was given the word that the Marines got off safely.
Happy Coast Guard Day.
