Shooting a Mauser 1914 in range

[Lugerdoc]

Alvin, It appears that your identified the problem. The early "split-tail" original mags will be difficult to find and expensive in nice condition. I do have new repros available @$35 each + S&H, which would serve well for shooting, and save your original mag for it's collector value. TH PS: I also have most other M1914 & 34 parts available, including new repro FPs.
