Replacement Mitchell Magazines on eBay

[milburn]

This may have already been addressed, but since new members arrive every day, I thought a mention might be in order.

I needed a magazine for my 1917/1920 Luger, and decided to try one of the "new" ones available on eBay. It was from "Active Merchandise" and was priced at @$29.77 post paid.

It arrived promptly, but one dimension was too large. I could force fit it, but it was in so tight, I needed to place a screwdriver on the bottom against a niche in the frame to loosen and pry it out.

At first, I was afraid I might have had a bent frame, but a mag from a different source slid in correctly this morning.

Since the firm I used first does not accept returns (at least in the ad), I thought a note here might save someone some trouble. Mag looked great, sent quickly, but simply was not machined down to fit ALL Lugers. They are surplus stock from the Mitchell Luger.
