I am looking to re finish/paint these, as when I got them, they were pretty beat up. Does anyone know the correct color?

The mags were not made to last forever and were intended to be disposed of and for short-term use. Are you sure you want to put the effort to refinish them? You are better off purchasing new mags with your money and time.

Thanks....I have the Pmags already. These were just laying around and I had the idea to touch them up a bit. But, as you mentioned, if they're designed to last a short time.....it seems to be a waste of time. I didn't know the OEM's can wear out.

There is a sticky on TOS about refinishing mags in the Magazine Section. Lots of pretty pictures for those of us who like that sort of thing.
