market for magazines

Agreed

There are some good buys out there and decent buys. Hope this isn't a bunch of info you already know.

With magazines, look at the base, see if it has been sanded or stamped over. It is usually easy to tell.

I have almost bought a couple of the ones offered by 'the gunman' that is Richie from the forum and a very honest guy. I have not bought them because I bought 28 magazines a month or so ago from a fellow collector.

First decide what kind you want, wood or aluminum, original shape or shooter shape.

Remember, the real ones, look real, and also remember that the 2/1001 are DDR ones, great for shooters, but post war.
