Just a guess here, nothing more. Is it possible that whoever took the Luger had to kill a German soldier to get it and didn't want to have to look at the widow's and orphan's faces ?? Please, I mean no disrespect. In war it's him or me. I mention the possibility only because my father told me that he once killed a German soldier and found on his body a picture of what appeared to be his wife and child. He said he felt terrible then and let me tell you, 20 to 30 years later, he still felt terrible.
I haven't a clue as to the magazine / ammo.
