Help with 2 mags
Gentlemen
i have an opportunity to purchase 2 mags on another board and I was hoping someone can help confirm that they are original mags. I know the pics are crappy and dont give the detail required, but if someone sees something obvious, please let me know. The pricing seems to be pretty good, otherwise i would pass. NOTE:" The pubic hairs are NOT mine! This is what the seller has said (in red italics so as not to confuse my notes embedded within: they do work on my finnish luger . Apparently he had these 2 and purchased 2 more and all of them have the following problem: for some reason even the ones I got after this will work ok only with 5 rounds on them and if I load them more they have some problems feeding , but since this happens with all 4 of them I just have to blame my luger for that . 2. luger 9mm original magazine aluminum but plate $65 3. luger 9mm original magazine wood replica but plate $35 The fellow has a good trader rating and has stated that they can be returned, so i have no worries there, but would rather avoid the hassle. As usual, thanks in advance to everyone. |

I'm no expert, but the pin on the wood bottom looks suspect... wonder if the hole in the mag has been affected (widened)?

Hi, I don't see anything obviously wrong with either mag. that would
affect function, since they don't seem to be dented or bent. The one with the aluminum base looks to be the better deal since, if original, it would be a K or G date. Regards |

Nickle plated with aluminum bottom mags were issued with K date, G date, and 1936 S/42.
