Another unusual Luger magazine!

John Sabato · 02-14-2008, 03:55 PM

Last year I purchased an unusual magazine from ebay... as part of a group of magazines for various guns.

Photos will be posted in the near future.

The blued body is straight with no grooves on the side. the bottom edge is flat like an FXO. The feed lips appear to be very solid steel. It used an FXO type mag bottom that was either plastic or bakelite with one knob broken off.

On the side it is very lightly stamped "SEYMOUR PRODUCTS CO." and the second line of the stamp says "SEYMOUR, CT." The magazine is very well made, and I think that this one just got abused.

Unfortunately, the magazine was damaged. There is a split in the bottom rear edge along the back seam of about 1/2 inch that prevents it from completely entering a Luger frame.

It is repairable if I can reshape and weld the seam. And I can fit an aluminum FXO base that I have on hand.

I have never seen a magazine like this before, but it looks a lot like the smooth-sided magazines that were produced for the second generation of Stainless Lugers made by AIMCO for Stoeger and under other names.

Has anyone else got a SEYMOUR magazine like this in their collection or ever seen one like this?
