Have a look at this magazine please
Hi everyone
Here I am again with my crappy cellphone pics - sorry. My 4 year old got a hold of my digital camera, you know how that goes... Anyway, here's the story. This fxo magazine came with my recently acquired BYF42 from this thread http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=23286. I was advised by the seller that the magazine was original but the floorplate was a reproduction. Please have a look at the magazine bottom - is it a repro or what? Looks real to me comparing it with the other fxo mags I've seen in my lengthy (2 weeks) studying of the P-08 pistol! Thanks! |

Can not tell. I had a magazine bottom done by GT and I can not tell the difference.

Sorry, bad photos make it impossible, and, and like Jerry said, if it was a repro by GT; you couldn't tell the difference. If a repro from others, it would be obvious, with, uh, better pictures.

Paddy, Are you showing only 1 mag in three photo's or three mags in three photo's?

Paddy, That being the case I would strongly suspect it to be original as it is damaged. It would likely be whole if it were a repro?
