Model 52 magazines?
Picked these up out of a random bin of magazines in a little town in Wyoming. I am guessing these are for a model 52 but not sure. I just saw the old S&W mark on the bottoms and figured they were priced well at the two for one price they gave me. Trying to decide if I want to hold on to them or selling them here on the forum. Any good ideas on value and if they are hard to come by?

I don't think those are 52 mags, look like 39 mags to me.

Yep, I think that is a good possiblity now that you mention that. Weren't model 52's after S&W stopped using this type of ampersand on their stuff?

Those are not 52 magazines. My factory S&W 52 magazines have slots with a pin on the follower riding in the slot.

Model 52's came out in 1961.
All of my M52 mags, even the new one from a 52-2, have the long, flat lazy & on them.

They are either 39s or 3913/14/53 mags. 52s are 5 round only and almost all have a figure of eight style follower when you look from the top. Dave_n
