Default Who makes this Magazine?

Side bottom back corner says 45 ACP made in Taiwan and the follower has a star with lines going to a point behind it to make it look like a shooting star?

Guess it must be a knock off because McCormick is made in the USA and their website says beware of copies.

Well some have suggested that it is a knock off upgraded with McCormick parts but McCormick sells that follower for $7.66 if you buy the spring and the follower it is $15.47 either way I cannot see some one upgrading a magazine with McCormick Parts and sell it for ten bucks even if it was just the follower added. This is really odd.

Maybe the "made in Taiwan" in big letters on the Mag let's you know you've been ripped off
