Roger,

Thanks for the pictures.

Well, your Mauser made P.08, 1940 42, SN 1154n seems to be equipped with a Haenel magazine, called the type 4 which was made by Haenel in 1941. The keys are the fxo, the SE37 and the upside down P.08. This type was the last made by Haenel in Suhl. Clearly not correct to the gun even before you look at the suffix.

As I mentioned before, the correct magazine for this pistol is the Haenel Type 3, which has the 122 manufacturer code rather than the fxo. Also made by Haenel in Suhl.

Hope this helps.

John
