Greetings,
Can anyone say definitively which Luger models (year) came with the magazine with the numbers stamped along the long axis as shown in the photo?

Mike, I can not open your photo but the answer is the DWM military pistols up 'til mid or late 1911. If you want to trade it or sell it I would be a potential victim for you.

All the 50000 DWM Lugers of the first order got the large numbers. That stopped with the (last of the 50000) DWM 1911 with e suffix about 31. march 1911.
Reason for it seeems to be the Stempelvorschrift from 1910 (which was written more for the Lugers of the riflefactory Erfurt than for the DWM).
