A few years ago I picked up a 42 Mauser with two matching mags and holster as well as byf Mauser with two matching mags and holster. I bought them from a supposedly astute dealer in Virginia. He represented them as good pieces but common and rather ordinary. I bought the two for $1600.

The dealer said he had bought them from an estate in Pa. He had them in his case with each pistol in the other's holster with the other's matching mag. He was oblivious to fact that each had two matching mags.

These fellows were within a breath of becoming permanently seperated.
