Default Correct Takedown Tool?

I realize many people don't think paying today's price for an original Luger takedown tool is worth it. And from a strictly utilitarian view, that's probably right. You can buy a repro for way less that works fine.

However, from a collector point of view, I would appreciate some advise on what tool is "correct" for my 1940 Mauser.

My pistol is e/655 marked, but the SN places it at the point where magazines were changing. The proper magazine is a 122 code e/37.

Were takedown tools issued from the same source, or at the same time as the magazines? Or were they made with the pistol?

So if I have a choice between buying a e/655 marked tool or an e/37 marked takedown tool, which is more "correct" for my pistol?

Thanks very much.
