Guys,

The magazine is most likely correct. The Mauser magazines were originally made by a Dutch supplier, MFT in Tilburg. Later, MFT only supplied the tubes, but weren't really interested in continuing the contract.

The last batches of Mauser pistols were therefore actually shipped with MecGar magazines.

ps: MFT also sold the magazines separately, first only marked with the Mauser logo, until Mauser protested, then with the Mauser and 'Made in Holland' logo and finally only with the 'Made in Holland' logo as they had no rights to use the Mauser logo for their own personal sales.
