Is it just me, or am I the only one to notice that there is no old patination in that wood magazine overstamp? That stamp looks recent. I’ve seen a lot of bogus stamps on Mauser wooden stocks, and the red herrings always seem to lack that nice 50 year old patination in them. I also seem to recall that one armourer’s replacement wood mag I saw had the old number crossed out, and the new over it, with the correct patina. To be fair, I can’t imagine a true fulltime faker trying to pass that lame attempt at making it all matching. Especially with the typical Luger buyer running around with a microscope for inspection. Mag looks like a Bubba special to me.
