Magazine springs for new Mauser P.08's

Hi G.T.:

As per our earlier discussions, I have found the Mauser Parabellum Spring (9mm) to be an outstanding all around spring for all of my Lugers, 1917, 1941 and 1970s production.

With the right load, this spring functions without fail!! This spring has been nicknamed by me the "Ball Buster" spring as it is certainly strong!! Note that the 7.65 Mauser Parabellum Springs are not the same as the 9mm, per my personal observation.

The Mec Gar springs will function well with a light to medium load, but the Parabellum springs will function well even with a hot load.

My vote goes to the 9mm Parabellum Magazine spring as the all around best you can use in any Luger (including the 7.65mm).

I may have a spare in Florida, but I will have to go down there and loacate it.
