Mitchell-Stoeger P.08 mags

rhuff · 07-23-2016, 03:00 PM

Sometime back, I purchased some CDNN Luger mags advertised as OEM. They have no name or origin stamped on them. They have a plastic follower and a plastic base. They are blued. I purchased 3 of them for $17 each. Of the three, one was a bit oversize and did not slide easily into the mag well. I did a bit of "tuning" to the tube with some emery paper, and it fit fine after that. A second one had one small area that needed a couple of strokes also to correct it....the third was just fine. I touched the sanded areas up with cold blue. They function fine in MY alphabet Luger. I have no idea who made them.

Perhaps these are "seconds" that Mecgar just does not want to put their name on.

Good thought!!! Could very well be. The welds down the tube are readily noticeable, no so on my known Mec-Gar mags. Another Luger mystery!!

That's because Mecgar doesn't make them that way; the weld on a Mecgar is down the back.

John S. nailed it, could likely be KKK.

Whatever my 'mystery mags' are, they function o.k. now that they have been fitted!
