I have just bought a 1918 Luger Artillery that came out of a trunk that hasn't been opened in 50 years. The pistol was brought back after WWII by an American officer. The magazine in the pistol does not have the same serial number as the pistol. The base of the magazine is wooden with a 1734 serial number with what looks like an X or a cross stamped into it. My question is, is this the type of magazine that would have come in the pistol, or is it older or younger than the 1918 pistol?

Thanks in advance for your help;
