Thanks!

I stand corrected; the toggle on my pistol reads 42, not S/42. The gun is chamber dated 1940 and is serial numbered 537f.

I just purchased the pictured mag. It seems to be unused, just somewhat dirty. The mag body appears to be steel, in the white, but not plated. The pin that holds the aluminum base is blued and untouched, so I don't think that the body has been switched.

I have another mag for the gun as well. It's mismatched, has Weimar eagles, and the mag body is definitely nickle plated.
