What is it about the metal part of the magazine that makes it "not period to the pistol?"

I'm asking because I'm trying to learn so I won't buy any modern magazines that have been made to look old - I would like to own a WWI Luger magazine at some point. Comparing mine to my mec-gar mag, the metal part looks very different. Comparing mine to the ones I'm seeing sold as authentic on eBay, here (one recently sold to a magazine expert on the forum),GB, etc, the metal part of mine seems to have all the same exact features. What am I missing?

Thanks!
