I was surfing ebay looking for my needle in the pervebial haystack ...the matching clip for my 1936 S/42 #2511h when I ran across this....

This is interesting...what sort of magazine is this and what years would this have been applicable to?

This is an official replacement magazine, it will go for over $200, easy. Having one of these makes for wantabe matching luger and mag, as this would be an armorers replacement mag for one damaged or lost.

I have sold both of mine I came across, and I should have kept them...

Ed,

Hi Kerry, hope your 1936 is treating you well!!

The stick eagle over 63 Waffenamt Mark was used during the later part of 1937 and the early part of 1938.

The proper magazine for your pistol would be a droop eagle over 63 and the tube should be nickle plated, not blue. It would be great to find one in the H-Block!! Good Luck!!

Thanks Frank!
I know you had told be B4 I just couldnt find the e-mail! Yes I am very satisfied and I think you gave me a sweet deal too. I watch other simular guns do well at auction and believe mine to be in better shape.
I still havent shot the weapon. Im scared I will break something. I will probably buy a extractor at a minimum.
I have a question that I will PM you on concerning the operation of that weapon

The magazine might have the bottom ground down to appear as a replacement magazine..

Just an unsolicited opinion from someone who has absolutely no expertise in these matters, but it sure looks like someone took a loose belt sander to the bottom of that magazine and then stamped it.......
