OK, with exception

I'm not sure who is the manufacturer of these magazines. I'm going to assume it is US Armament, the company producing the new 1903 Pocket Hammerless under license from Colt as they look mostly like the one that came with my new 1903. They fit fine, but when they arrived they were seriously rusted and discolored, but fortunately not pitted causing me to doubt they are "new." After a lot of cleaning with Flitz and generous wiping with Balisol, they look OK. Have not run them through the gun yet, so we will see after a trip to the range. Kind of disappointing to see a simple metal device like this arrive in such poor cosmetic shape, for that much money. Looks like someone is cleaning out the old inventory.
