The mag has a small chip out of the wooden bottom and although the pictures do not show it, it's supposed to be numbered to the gun.

Although I'd have to check (or another LF member could do it for me as I don't have my books with me, e.g. Rutsch) I think only the very early mags were numbered, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find a matching mag. In any case 06/24 mags were not originally numbered so there is no reason to find a number on this one, especially a number "conveniently" matching the gun. Maybe you should check whether there hasn't been any forced matching.

Two years ago I was offered a matching non-pitted reblued 1900 Swiss luger for 1800.- CHF. I though didn't take it.
