I just spoke with my dad.
He said the magazines to bolth Lugers.
Are not the original magazines to them.

I was looking at your question that reads.
The fifth picture is very interesting indeed. The crown/N on the left receiver means that this gun has undergone commercial test proofing, indicating that it was re-proofed after some commercial reworking was done to it. This may relate to being rebarrelled, makeing it crucial to know all the markings on the barrel. There is a mark visible on the left breechblock above the frame rails, it would be useful to know if it is a crown/N or an eagle.

This mark you are asking about in the breechblock above the frame rails is a the crown/N mark.
