Found Mag Nos. and NEW W Mark

I came across magazines: 5906 #1, 382 #2, 8989 i +, Mauser 1124 w. I believe the W is a new addition to the reference list, see picture. It doesn't LOOK like any of the W suffixes shown on the reference pages. Or is it another letter?

I moved this from the for sale section to the accessories section.

It seems to me that many letters were made in various ways - at one time I was collecting WW1, Weimar and Nazi era letters and was always surprised how many there were.

It is a "W"; NV was one of several combined strokes used for scrip lower case "W".
