byf Portuguese Luger
 

What are the correct Magazines and proofed takedown tool for the 42 byf Portuguese Lugers? I have tried to put a rig together but can only fine limited and conflicting info on subject My luger came with a replaced blank aluminum bottom

fxo extruded mag. The base on the mag was badly pinned don't know if done by Portuguse or by FGS the importer. I luckly was able to get a really nice original holster with Pakerized cleaning tool but it also contained a East Germany takedown tool which I am sure was wrong. Some of you all must have some of the original rigs which came thru Canada.


Thanks

Bob, My Portugese 42/BYF came with M43 Port. holster, cleaning rod, unproofed high polished mag loading tool (have a couple of these @$40ea), and one BPB/FXO mag and one unnumbered aluminum bottomed/FXO mag.(see

third Reich Lugers p255). The Portugese sometimes electric pencil engraved the last 4 numeric digits of s/n on the spine of the mag. I have both types of mags available in exc condition @$150. Tom

Thanks Guys. Sort of looks like either the Black Plastic or Blank Aluminum Mags will work. I have a great correct type holster, and unproofed tools so guess I am there with rig.
