Magazine, Repro./Authentic
 

My Luger is a 1914 Commercial Army, with serial number 70427(just off from memory). When I bought the Luger, it came with two mags, one with numbers resembling the serial number on the gun and one looking like it was fake. I know my Luger is an East German capture, refinished. Tell me though, is this magazine the one that orginally came with this gun in 1914? Or what?

The mag appears to be an FXO mag, notice the center pin in the base. This mag was not produced until much later than 1914. While the # appears to be authentic, it is not the correct mag for that era.

With the mag not right in front of me, there are numbers on the side of it with like 2/11/00 or something close to that.

Your magazine "2/1001" is a post war East German magazine and was made from the same equipment as the late "fxo" war magazines. They are excellent magazines, but definately do not belong to your 1914.

Thanks Frank and Herb for the info. As for them being good mags, the one pictured is but the other one I have does not perform to well.
