Jeff,

The good news is that your magazine is a Haenel Schmeisser (German armament's code "fxo") manufactured magazine from 1941 - 1942. It's got a value of $125 or so, depending on condition. The other symbol is the German weapons inspection office acceptance stamp.

These extruded magazines are the best functioning variation ever manufactured for the Luger.

If you can afford to keep it to shoot with try and do so. Since the toggle train was replaced it might be wise to have a gunsmith look at it to verify that the headspace is correct. Even when you do buy a collectible Luger, you'll probably want one to shoot...
