I have read
These magazines fit the 144 series. I have read
interchangeable with a
model 140 142 152 250 350.  I have 2 US 144s and they work great.  I do not have any of the
other
Mossberg models to test.
22 L.R. only so a R498, no hole in
the
front of the follower.  I have a customer report of "
The magazine fit and cycled great on the model 152! Pounded rounds.."
I have no other application data.
I have photographed 3 random samples.
US Gi surplus.  Traces of cosmolene or gun oil from long term storage.  They have the stretch marks from the original forming of the sheet metal, clearly seen in the first photo. Blue finish.  Magazine ONLY, no gun included.
I see no markings on it.  Not a K line or tripple K.
OEM by Mossberg
Lincoln cent shown for size reference only.
I have used several of these & they worked great  Mine required no fitting. I'd expected a minimum fitting if needed if at all.
For the last 5 years, I shipped in One business day 100% of the time!!   Payments before 5 am, go out in that day's trip to the Post Office.  My post office isn’t open on Saturdays
