ID'ing new Luger

The two magazines that came with it are certainly not the greatest. They're both Ermas and one of them looked like my dog had been chewing on one of the feed lips. A little time with a small block of wood and mallet and I thought I had them pretty straight. When i was shooting the pistol that magazine was no worse then the other, it wouldn't cycle with either. Of course that doesn't mean both mags aren't junk.

New Fiocchi .30 is on order, now I just have to find someone with some Mecgar magazines in stock.

Looks as though the front sight blade is a replacement patridge type. That was a not uncommon change. Good shooting and enjoy it.
