Welcome to the forum Kevin,

I doubt there is any remaining stock at Mauser, after over 40 years. Such things are sold off.

Keep looking, be patient. If they are out there, they tend to surface eventually.

The bottoms G.T. installs to improve mags will not blow out as the original bottoms will. The Strong springs--the desirable feature of the original 70s mags--are apparently too strong for the original plastic bottoms.

If you're interested in the extra mags for shooting, why not try MecGar mags, which are available new. These are currently the best on the market and will see you through many, many rounds. Their availability is sporadic because they tend to sell out quickly. Again, diligence and patience will pay off.
