Herb, I think that most of the byf Lugers beyond the U, V & W Suffix were shipped with either non-numbered aluminum or plastic bottom fxo magazines. While these are not matching (no numbers) they are certainly "proper" and legit magazines for late byf 41 and all byf 42 Lugers. I have seen a small number of numbered plastic bottom fxo magazines, but I've never seen one with a suffix. They could be Police Magazines or just a No Suffix Type
Ed, regarding prices; I know that there are some dealers that are charging big bucks for their Lugers, but to say these are going prices might be a stretch. Over the past few months, I have purchased a 98% byf 41 and a 95% 1937, strawed small parts, Mauser Hump for MUCH less than the dealer prices. I have also sold a pretty nice early 1936 for MUCH less than dealer prices. So if you keep your eyes open, the decent prices are still out there. If you in a hurry, then you'll have to pay the BIG BUCKS!!!!
