Matching Magazines

Hello All,

Just curious if anyone in the forum has been able to find the matching magazine for their luger pistol out there in the gun world. Also would anyone have interest in a website devoted to bringing pistols together with their matching magazines.

Thanks for your time.

Don Hallock has compiled a list for over 20 years of orphaned magazines
in an effort to find the matching luger. There are thousands of magazines
on his list. You can reach him at:
drh@oz.net
There is a charge for the complete list.

yes, twice. Once was a mismatch era wise, but same number; the second time was a match from Don's listing and although not a perfect match (it had been renumbered many years before), it was acceptable to me...

Do you think there would be interest in a website?

sure, but not sure how you make it interactive and up to date. Don does his manually via the computer.

We have a listing here of magazines that folks have and i personally have found it hard to keep my "extra" mags part of the listing up to date...

And how to make it secure so folks could leave information and then be able to get in touch with each other. You figure it out, it'd be used i am sure.
