Mossberg 22LR magazine identification

44Vaquero · Apr 6, 2016

Not sure if this is the right section or not. I have 3 magazines that I am pretty sure are for a Mossberg rifle. I've tried to ID them but want to be sure. Yes, they will end up for sale somewhere.

I have been told 140/150 series by one person and a 300 series by another.

Here are some pictures....

At one time I owned a Mossberg 152.
The magazines pictured look like the one with my 152.
You might try Halvin's , he specializes in Mossberg parts ...

I also have one that does not have the hole in the follower. This is the answer Havelin gave me:

These fit the Mossberg 140, 142 (version with hole in the follower) and 144/152 (version without the hole)

The hole in the follower is for a short adapter piece - it was not used in the semi-auto 152 or the 22LR target rifle 144

The 140 and 142 were chambered for 22 short, long and long rifle. If you shoot shorts, you needed the spring adapter that inserted into that hole to nose back the shorter length of the 22 short.
The adapter is not present in the mag - not needed if you shoot LR only
