Magazine marking question

MikeP · 10-10-2001, 07:02 PM

I just got a real nice 1937 second type with two mags-not matching but supposedly original-one of them has a dark aluminum bottom with kind of indistinct numbers and the number 2 under them. on the side is 2/1001-any ideas?

This from a reputable dealer-

The 2/1001 extruded magazine is post WW2 E.German construction.

Mike,

The East German magazines that you have were made on the original tooling if my memory serves me correct and the quality is excellent. The price for them is not as high as an original, but for a magazine to shoot with in your Luger, they can't be beat.
