New Member & my 1916 DWM Luger

Hi Mike,

Welcome to the forum.

Nice 1916 Luger you have, it seems to be in excellent condition. That matching mag really boosts the value (at least here in the USA), and they are breakable - good call on not shooting with it!

I don't like the Mecgar Luger mags, I find they jam as much as any. I only shoot with genuine aluminum bottom 3rd Reich Luger mags - they always work with my early Imperial WWI Lugers flawlessly. I know a lot of folks like the Mecgar mags, but this is my experience.

If you really want one, I have brand new stainless Mecgar mags that I don't want. I'll sell you one for my cost - I'm pretty sure we can get it to SudAfrika for a couple dollars.
