Luger Magazine numbering

gunbugs · 06-20-2017, 05:07 PM

I think most of the magazine mixups we see today, came from US GI's picking up war trophies from a pile of pistols and the accompanying pile of magazines, and not caring, or even knowing that there were "numbers matching" magazines. I would think that most of the Krauts kept their mags with their pistol.
