I'm currently using D&H/Colt(OKAY) USGI magazines, some have KAC White followers I got from friends, dudes online, and I think some might have come with my SR-15s, but I'm not 100% sure on that. Wasn't something I really paid attention to until today. Others have Magpul yellow followers (which were given to my by my Mom, sweet isn't she?).
I have a few ways of marking magazines and what they're filled with.
I'd like to get 30 mags willed with M855, and 30 filled with BH Mk. 262. I currently have: (and how they're marked)
D&H Mags (Yellow Magpul Follower)
These magazines are filled with M855 (Lake City 62 gr. FMJ), and are marked by follower, and I have a homosexual man my girlfriend works with engrave - which he does very well, and I don't own an engraving tool (in about THIS SIZE ''M855 - 30 RDS.'' this is then filled in with RED paint pen. Right now I have about 23 magazines (I just counted) set up this way. They are black, not painted in any way, and easily readable. The engraving work looks good.
Colt (OKAY) (White Knights Armament Follower)
These magazines are loaded with BH Mk. 262 (I hated it when that crap was restricted) , and are marked in about THIS SIZE ''MK 262 - 30 RDS.'' and are filled in with GREEN paint pen. I think it glows in that dark, but I'm not sure. Once again, they are black/greyish, and not painted/camouflaged in any way. Very readable, and apparently very permanent.
Currently I have 13 magazines set up this way. I don't have any real reason not to use the other Magpul followers I have, I'm just a Knights whore. And they've run 100% for me.
Magpul magazines get loaded with whatever else I have, and don't really get marked. I use use them until they die. Those are the training/beater magazines, and I don't care about them. USGI magazine springs used in magazines mentioned above, BTW.
I color code, and have them engraved, followers also conform to code. If you want to engrave, or get good at doing it legibly I was told to practice on shovels, and engraving your initials on watches.
I bought the paint pens from a Wal-Mart.
You guys just reminded me I gotta number my magazines, I for some reason never thought of that. Herp-da-derp.
