Ron, I'm with you on that one. Any Dutch spring catch mag deserves restoration.

I found my example on a local table, as a bunch of parts without the bottom piece. Tom set me up with a correct bottom piece, which had seen as much action as the rest of the mag, so a good fit

My Luger's original magazine is missing the wood base and spring. It is possible it may still be in a drawer at my Dad' house. I remember seeing it about 50 years ago. All I can remember is it was wood and was broken.

Default Dutch mag bottom with spring retainer...

I hate to even mention this... but, I have made them before, and, I can make one of those for you??? ... It's not cheap, but considering the work involved, not really that expensive either... It is practically, if not completely, indistingushable from the original...Let me know if you're interested...I'm at gctomeks@msn.com .. Best to you, til...lat'r...GT

Default dutch bottom...

Hi Dave, Ron Wood had an excellent pictorial on this very subject.. perhaps he could re-present it? Or direct you to it in the archives(sp.?) anyway... they're a fairly complex little item, for what they had to do?? Best to you, til...lat'r...GT

Default Magazine

An update on the wooden bottom to my magazine. It never turned up in my parents house after they passed away. I can only assume that it was thrown out at some point because it was “broken”.
