S&W 3rd gen factory mags - were they made in black?
Seems like most of the 59 series "factory" mags are nickel.
I have a few *black* 69 series mags that work great, but they are not marked with any letters whatsoever. I didn't buy them new.
There's no "S" on the side, no "S&W" on the bottom of the baseplate.
The followers look like the standard S&W followers - black and orange. So that makes me think they are factory.
They look just like the mags in the attached photo.
