I have to disagree with Doug, I don't think this magazine has been renumbered. Early Mauser magazines were sanded at the factory prior to numbering to remove a casting line, the photo shows one of mine. The droop eagle/63 inspection mark is correct for 1936, but the e suffix, I believe, is late 1935.
