Hugh, even tho it's mismatched it's in decent shape, I like those mags, mine has the spring rusted away. I had just recieved it the day I took the pictures and have spent many hours cleaning the rust out of and off of it, it looks a little better now with a good coat of penetrating oil on it. From what I've read no Vickers will ever win a beauty contest, even when they were new. I don't really care, it looks pretty to me and fills a big hole in my collection. These babies are really hard to come by. Until I got mine I had only seen one other one, Ralph had it at one of the Reno shows. You can go out and on several days of the month you can find those red cross Lugers and them Kreigerhoffers, but finding a Vickers is another matter. Thanks for the pictures, a decent example.
