Good afternoon,
I have come across a magazine for a Luger with the serial number 5531 stamped up it. Could this be the magazine you are missing? If it is please let me know. I have attached pictures for you to verify if this the correct item. |

Nice eye Landrover! Unfortunately the magazines started out in different guns.
Yours is 5531x with #1 at the top. This would be a 1940/41 Police magazine. The other Luger is 5531k from 1938. |
