Hi Tony,
Welcome to the forum! German soldiers in the two World Wars had little consideration for the needs of 21st century Luger collectors and they mixed magazines without a second thought. The matching magazine survival rate varies from a low of about 2% for Imperial Lugers to a high of about 10% for Kreighoffs, which saw little service at the front. More accurate statistics are not possible due to the large number of faked magazines.
Regards, Norm
