K43 Sniper

I assume this was something done at random? Figured we’d see a lot more of this if this were done with every rifle.
 
Over the years I have always heard, through the "grapevine", that the earliest of the G43 sniper rifles had numbered magazines. When that stopped, nobody knows. I have seen several mags over the years with numbers as pictured here but is rare. I have also seen them with numbers on the side. No way to verify when they were done or by whom.

Maybe somebody can add something here??
 
I’ve seen mags with a rifle number painted on the bottom. As Brian said, we will never be able to verify these. On a side note, you can find cleaning kits with rifle serial numbers stamped into them.
