Well, it's that time of year again!
 
Hi to all, as the title states, it's that time of year, which to me, is any time of the year when I run out of original followers for Luger magazine repairs???? :eek::eek:... So, here I am begging for some help! I am not shy about it either, as when I repair members magazines, I often swap followers to solve a binding or feeding issue, and I don't charge for this part or part of the service! I'm just happy to have parts that work? Anyway, if you have a little stash of followers, especially Mauser wartime, I would certainly like to purchase them and will post a thread in the WTB section stating such.... As I realize the cupboard may be bare, perhaps a few will trickle thru for a new home in a sad and sick Luger mag. (Almost makes you want to go out and buy a puppy!) :eek:.... Thank and best to all, til......lat'r........ GT :cheers:

No soap from the auction, I'm sorry to say. Someone with deeper pockets won the parts. :(

yesterday was a huge auction of 1911 parts / M1 / M1 carbine etc. I was interested, but forgot.
I bet there are parts locked away by the thousands - somewhere

An auction lot with the internal parts for a couple of dozen Erma toggle pistols came and went on Gunbroker. I'd been outbid, I think, and planned to snipe the auction at the end. Still kicking myself for being distracted/forgetting. But the weird thing is that the parts never made an obvious appearance on GB elsewhere later. "Loveoldguns" was the username of the winner, also a ghost on their forums...

Give or take some fitting, mostly yes. Sometimes no.
