Magazines?
 
I've been looking for a second magazine for my 1917 DWM...what should I be looking for (or better--"looking out" for!) ?

I've seen Mecgar mags (Italy?) on-line, and many of the catalogs I have (Cheaper than Dirt, etc) have Luger mags...are these "generic" and/or reliable?

The mag I have now has an aluminum base--I've heard of wood bases--it has "fxo" near the base with a proof mark (with a 37) and "P-08" nearby...

What I want is a second mag which is reliable, and will be used to complete my "ensemble" of Luger and holster.

Any help or tips would be appreciated...thx!

JohnB,

If you are looking for an appropriate magazine for your DWM 1917, it must have a wood bottom and be numbered left-to-right across the wood bottom.

If you are just looking for a functional magazine for shooting, the Mec-Gar works well. I have several of these that I use with my Luger shooters and have never had a problem.

Luke
