Mag capacity help

Sports shooting limit over here is 5 rounds (6 for military pistol competitions), which is a good number for P08 shooting

Thank you Vlin,

I have a 7.65 caliber 1920 Commercial Luger with two matching magazines. Matching in the fact that they both have been modified with wood (walnut) blocks and brass top ends restricting the magazine capacity to five (5) rounds.

You have solved a mystery that I have had for years. The Luger magazines were modified for sports shooting.

Right. The fewer rounds loaded in the magazine, the higher the chance of the toggle action working properly.
