[QUOTE="ratski, post: 2691368, member: 936"] A while back, I posted asking what people used to fill in the cutouts on their receivers and magazines. I got a lot of various ways to accomplish this. Model Paint, Grease Markers, China Markers, Crayons, Sharpies, etc. Some folks asked "why bother?" and "What do you gain by doing it?" Well, when I am at the range with similar magazines using different calibers, it is nice to have a visual cue as to what caliber magazine I am holding. Same goes for when I toss the mags in the bag at the end of the session. Nice to see the difference for reloading. I think I have settled on the China Marker (Red) that I got at Home Depot. Good contrast and easy to do. Here are a couple pics to show the difference between a marked and an unmarked magazine. I also like the idea of marking at least the last witness hole number. Not as easy to read, but still helpful. Hope this helps someone out there. Dave [/QUOTE]
