Don't be disappointed about those mag. repairs. My guess is that they are an original field repair. I've seen the same thing on M1 Garand forearms. It's just part of the personality of the gun.
You can find original magazines but unlikely you'll find the correct number. So no better than you've already got.
Also, consider contacting our "Lugerholsterrepair" guy about your holsters. He's forgotten more than I'll ever know...
