Magazine and pistol different serial numbers

Triley · 01-14-2021, 11:03 AM

Hi, im new to here and to Lugers. I inherited a 1918 one a few years back and noticed the serial# on the pistol 5509 doesnt match the magazine(6509) is this common ? is there a place to look to trade mine mag for the one that matches ? Also i noticed an X next to the serial # on the pistol, looks to be crudely added. What does this mean , if anything?
Thanks
Tom
