"No magazine"...

I am the winner. But I doubt that he has another one... I have not contact him yet, he's in Texas, store not open until 10am central. If he indeed has another one, $5025 is a steal, I will very happy to pay for it to make a pair.

Numerous C96 collections went through auction sales in the past 10 years. I have seen only one of this in RIAC 2011 session (it's the same 84658 in gunboards.com). In the same time frame, I have met a dozen or so 20-shots (if I remembered right, Mauser only sold 177 20-shots). Even if Erickson's estimation of "10" were too low, I guess there are fewer of these than famous CC Luger (50?)

Magazine is nothing. $200-$300 item, depends on condition. Not numbered. And there are plentiful of them. But I changed my mind, I will leave it as is without magazine, it came to me without magazine, then, no magazine.
