Magazine capacities
 

I am new to Lugers and was trying to find a few extra magazines for my 2 Mauser 29/70 Parabellums, one a 9mm and the other a 7.65mm.

Seems like the supply of new Mec-Gar mags has dried up completely and I decided to look on Ebay and Gunbroker for some Luger magazines. The conditions and prices seem to go from average to thru the roof:cheers:! The interesting thing though is that lots of these magazines only hold 7 rnds.

Both of the Mec-Gars that came with my 2 pistols hold 8 rnds., as did my 1918 Erfurt of 50+ years ago. So, I guess the question I am asking is; Is there a list somewhere of the capacities of the different Luger magazines both past and present? Thanks,............................Ray

Here ya go this is where I got mine from, very fast service and a real nice guy to deal with. He has them in both 9mm and 7.65x22 and in 2 different colors. I'm planning to order another one as he said he had "lots of them in stock."

Hey Terry,...........Thanks so much for the great info! I ordered a few 15 minutes ago.

Good luck with the rebuild on your fathers pistol.............................

No problem. I had a heck of a time finding these as well.
