Magazine marking question.

tynman · 05-17-2018, 05:15 PM

Im looking at a 1936 luger and it looks like its all matching, but the mag has 2 different suffix letters on the bottom of it. Could that be right or did someone force match it? If its right then what is the reason for the 2 different markings?

The + denotes mag number 2. Mag number 1 will not have this. If it was police it would actually be numbered with a "2".

So both magazines have serial numbers that match the gun? The suffix in the picture is an "i". What is the suffix on the gun? What is the suffix on the other magazine?

The other mag isnt offered with the pistol so who knows where it is. The suffix on the pistol looks like i like on the mag.
