Aftermarket Luger magazines - which ones are OK

[Edward Tinker]

welcome to the forum!

DDR mags are very nice, but getting a bit expensive ($65-$90)
Triple K - I don't like - but some work fine
Mec-gar are good
Earlier Erma or Mauser made are excellent - as are Swiss mags, but they are $75 and up

Thanks! Glad I found the forum!

I would not mind getting authentic period mags, but since the pistol is a VoPo re-arsenal, and it has import marks form CAI, and it does have one original DDR mag, I am not sure there would be any value added in buying more period mags.

I suppose having at least one extra original DDR mag might be good, though, as most of the military holsters held 1 spare. I have not acquired a period DDR holster yet, but I plan to.
