Need help identifying magazines

My father in-law (in his advancing years) is starting to downsize a bit and recently gave me an ammo can full of magazines. Most of which I've identified and matched to guns he owns but I am stuck on these three in the picture below.
It appears they're all 22 LR mags and the one on the far left says mod 40 on the bottom iirc.



Any help you can give me would be appreciated.
Thx, dan

Edit: I've identified the middle one as an old style Mossberg 340\350 22 LR rifle mag.
The far right one may be an Erma German EM-1 15 round 22LR or 22 mag but I can't confirm it.
Still need help on the outer two.

Wow! 170 views and nobody has any ideas?

I've found a few listings for the magazine on the left. It turns out it says mod 45 on the plate. They are:
Mauser KKW Training Rifle Magazine 22LR
or French military pre\post war MAS 22 lr mod 45

I've found two listings for a pre war MAS model 45 training rifle on gun broker that have the identical mags and about a dozen listings for the mags so I think this ones figured out.
Too bad my fil doesn't have the rifle as both listings are $450 and $699 respectively.

I'm still at a loss on the extended mag on the right and could use some help on that one.
