My Erma example holds true for the Luger, as well. Try it and you'll see. If you disregard OAL that causes feeding problems if more than 4 rounds of .32 ACP are loaded. the rim of the cartridge cannot escape the feed lips of a Luger mag. Although it is true that the main body of the .32 ACP case, since it's just a hair smaller D than the rim, is a bit sketchy about being held in/down, the rounds don't literally squirt out of the mag unbidden. A vintage Luger mag made by Erma works perfectly, whereas older, original mags don't hold the nose down. New MecGar mags are in the middle. Otherwise, I think a .30 Luger barrel could be used if an insert were installed in the chamber, although maybe more trouble than it's worth.
