Had these for some time. First mag has a rough "green" parkerized finish:

I have some Argentine pam2 magazines for my M11/Nine that look like that.

Exactly right. All each of those two magazines require for use in the M-11/9 is a catch cut on the spine. The Madsen M50 magazine also has an over insertion stop added as part of the modification. These magazines may seem a sloppy fit in your mag well, but I found them to be very reliable and much easier to load than the Argentine PAM-2. I own several and like them.

The Argentine produced PAM 2 is a smaller 9mm version of the U.S. grease gun.

Above mag appears to be a AP9 tec9 ghetto blaster mag.

I convert suomi mags for my hood rat ghetto blaster but the AP9 tec9 mags bring 20 to 30 bux each.

If it wasn't for "big trouble in little China" I wouldn't even own the gun.
Like the MAC & UZI it's a classic movie gun.

It was said best in the remake of RED DAWN "We are going to need better guns!"

I would have thought so too, but this mag lacks the high-cut slot to accommodate the Tec9's high mag catch. It fits in my Intratec Tec9, but does not latch. This one has me puzzled. I took another look at it (after years of it sitting in the "what the hell does this go to" bin) because I just got a nice (at least looking) Tec9 and wanted to see if I had extra mags lying around. No dice on this one.

I have had to re-mill the catch on a 20 round tec9 mag in the past.

Their mags are what gives them their stellar reputation and is one reason I convert the suomi mags.

Boy, you guys all beat me to the punch. I agree, Madsen, PAM2, and probably Tec9.
