MFC's comments made lots of sense to me in that thread -- the GERMANY marked magazine was probably a replacement magazine or a backup one. I feel (feel, 6th sense) replacement was more likely. In that way, GERMANY on seperately sold magazine (not 'freely' coming with the gun's price) makes huge amount of sense.

Edit:

But a feeling should have a reason. Why it's more likely being a replacement?

Assume those guns came with two magazines 'free', if the GERMANY magazine was the 2nd magazine, we are supposed to see lots of them today. But those are very rare, ...., where did this rareness come from? ..... how many people would spend more $$ buying extra magazines, ....., probably not many, and importers did not import many spare magazines.
