1906 American Eagle 7.65 DWM mag fit
 

I have acquired a 1906 DWM American Eagle with two mags that have wooden bottoms. With the mag inserted till it "locks" in place, it sticks out of the butt about 1/4". Could these be 9mm mags used in a 7.65 gun?? This my first Luger and would appreciate any help.. Thanks. :confused: :confused:

7.65 and 9mm use the same magazines... When you say sticks out, you mean the body of the mag is seen 1/4 inch? Looking around on this board they look wonkey?

For work, I'll be coming through Nampa and hopefully seeing another forum member beginning of September! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Thanks Ed--With the slide removed, I inserted the mag until it "clicks" in. Tha top of the mag is then flush with the frame, but the mag sticks out of the butt about 1/4".

I'm a volunteer at the Warhawk Air Museum in Nampa and would be happy to give you a tour. Just give me a buzz. 208 467-1290 Al Pilch
