unusual serial number
Hi,
I have an unusual serial numbered mag. It's number is 0105. Normally I think it would have been numbered 105. This is an FXO mag stamp P08 on tube There is a 2 indicating it' was a spare. Has anyone seen this numbering before? |

Good morning,
This is a Luger magazine reconditioned by the police workshops from Erfurt and Mauser parts, probably in 1943 with the particularity of having a Steyr barrel... Only a few hundred products... Registered numbers: 0105, 0115, 0265, 0270. The Luger 0105 is in the USA, with the 1 0105 magazine. |
