Holy cow!! I have one of those marked 122 E/37 also. I should sell it on ebay and take the money and buy a K98 with it!!!

I just realized that mine has an aluminum base, not bakelite. I'm not selling though, I just don't do that kind of stuff.

That's what ebay if for, making money.

Wow, that's about double what it's worth. The guy must have really wanted it.

Hi guys, plastic bottom Luger Magazines were made with fxo tubes, not 122 tubes. There are perhaps two explainations. First the magazine is a fake or it's a rarity!! If it's a rarity, then maybe the bucks are worth it to the new owner!!

BTW, I didn't bid on this one because, I didn't believe it was a rarity!!

I was going to bid on this one, until I seen that it was turning into a "feeding frenzy". That and I noticed also the bottom of the tube wasn't the usuall that you see on a 122 mag. I love Lugers and everything to do with them, but some people just have no control over themselves once they get into "Outbid mode" on flee bay.

If anyone has a 37 FXO mag they are willing to part with please email my private messages, I've been trying to get a extra one for awhile, but I just can't seem to find that right price range.

I can't really tell, but the follower looks to be black. Russian rebuild? My Russian rebuilds had the follower in black. I think that they were not this color from the FXO Schmeisser factory.
