Your 42 byf was made by Mauser and is a very desirable model; it looks to be in great condition too. Can't identify the holster but your broken magazine can be easily repaired by simply installing a replacement wood bottom or probably even by removing the pin holding the broken piece and glueing the two broken pieces together. Then just reinstall with the pin.

Your Erma .22 is also a very desirable model and should make a fun and reliable shooter. It was actually made in Germany and has the same great handling qualities as the full sized Luger.

I would say that you have lots of shooting/collecting fun in your future as well as the start of a fine collection.

edit: You will probably find that Winchester full metal ball will feed better in your byf 42 than the Norma soft points although you might be surprised to find that they will work fine also.
