Also, in police Lugers, it is not uncommon to find a #3 and sometimes a #4!

From Jan Stills Weimar, "In a 2-4-1930 dated police manual it is indicated that Landjagerei reserve P08 magazines are to be increased to two per pistol (Wotka, 1990).

Increased by two, when two were already issued. Besides, these magazine pouches hold two, when I worked the road, if I had a two pouch holder, I usually had two magazines in it.
