Theory on Mismatched Magazines

I carried a .45 for many years. Our .45's were pretty old, in Unit Armorer school, they told us that the last frames were made in 1945 or 1946 and most parts were that old. We had Remington Rand slides, Ithaca's, Colts, oh I don't remember, but we had everything, I remember playing around with them on midnight duty as Charge of Quarters (we were also the night Arms Room Officer).


We also had the old Remington Pump 12 gauges and M10 Smiths. I wish they'd sell some of those old .45's, I'd like another one. The warehouses in Anniston Army Depot have tons of .45's, M1's, old Thompsons, 1917's, etc., (I read an article on that years ago).


But I don't beleive any Lugers, but I always wonder, if you have these huge warehouses and they are, I've been on the outside of them, I imagine they look like the Indiana Jones movie in the end, I wonder if there are old captured Lugers or the 10 (ten, heh, heh) .45 Lugers from the trials, just cosmolined up, waiting for proper destruction...
