P-08 extra mag, real or fake?

Dalugdog ---- You are correct the "+" indicates a spare mag. (secondary mag.) and the other one would not have a + stamp. Yes, the difference in the size of the two eagle stamps leads me to believe the larger eagle is an added stamp and not original. I have several aluminum mags. with original stamps on the bottoms and none of them appear as the large eagle stamp in your photos. But don't take my word for anything, as I mentioned above I'm no judge or authority on anything. I've been buying lugers since the mid '60's and I'm still learning a lot from the guys in this forum.
