Why so many non-matching mags?

I've taken another look at the well known photo posted by Fred (FNorm), above, and the Lugers quite clearly still have their magazines. There goes the "guns in one pile, mags in another theory". Regards, Norm

Norm, There is another well known photo of a long line of German Soldiers surrendering and that is exactly what they are doing..throwing a pistol in one pile and magazines in another. So that procedure is well documented.

I would guess by the time pistols ended up in storage bins magazines had been re inserted helter skelter.
