dsk,

Welcome to the Luger Forum and please come back as often as possible! Most of the giys on this Forum are primarlily Luger collectors and shooters, but many are also into other pistols. So, come back with as many questions as as you want.

As Thor stated, the Mec-Gar Magazines were in short supply about a year ago and the factory stated they were making new tooling for the Luger mags. If this/was the case, they should be really high qquality magazines now. In the past, they were the best repro on the market.

I don't know about the Dutch magazine, but if you find the East German produced magazines, they are really top quality! The E. German mags have the black plastic bottom and are usually stamped with numbers like 2/1001 on the body. These run in the price range of approx $50-60 and well worth the price over an original wiis going for approx. $100 and up. The Mec-Gar mags retail for approx.each and you can find them on the auctin sites for less.

Good luck with your new Luger and give us the details when it is received.

Marvin
