There are 5 Types of the 20 Round Star Magazines.
Look closely.
All are rare and collectible.
This incredibly rare opportunity to see all 5 of the Star Mags is because of a very nice collector. These Star mags are from the Bradley Cheeks Dale Collection. If you know him, please thank him for his contribution.

It is difficult to notice with the eye, but they are equal, and magazine #3, the left verticle bars and LONGER, and the mags were made from different stamps.
3) 20 Round 2 Bar Slant magazine with elongated verticle left bars.
the 3rd magazine in the top row. You will have to zoom in to see the micro-differences between them.
I will get better pictures of them side by side later.

2 Bar slant Star Magazine below. Detail.
Two Bar Slant and Two Bar Parallel Magazine next to each-other.
This is an obvious difference when next to eachother.
They are just like the 20 round mags, of the same, with both canted and parallel bars.
Inserted, in a Type 86 Bullpup
Inserted in a AK-47S in the center.
Yes, that is a Polytech Legend in Full Bakelite on top,
and a Verified 1:1 Polytech import on the bottom, with both sidefolder stock and underfoldeing spike bayonet.
These next pictures are of my 20 Round Collection.
Over the years. Each mag photoed is different from the other mags.
