They say you never forget your first, and although this is not my best one of few I have, it is the first. Dug this in a drained lake in the former Czechoslovakia years ago. Right off I was fascinated how well it was preserved, especially the handles. It got me into P08 collecting then and there, sold much of my militaria collection to finance my future purchases. It's just one of my favorites now. I would love to know what make this is, but no markings are decipherable. The next Spring I went back, dug out a P38 along with this magazine, which still has rounds in it. Not beautiful, but it was my first, and it's great to display under glass legally in this country.
