Impressive Mag on EBay
I bought my first Luger almost 4 years ago. Since then, I have perused the auction and consignment sites for related offerings, looking for deals and spare parts, restorable items, etc.
I know there are people digging up artifacts from both World Wars all the time, and some offer these relics for sale. I saw this poor old FXO served up on eBay, and it is the worst mag I've ever seen offered for sale, to date! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Autentic-Lug...item33a2a58ec4 Mags rusted into relic frames do not count!

This has seen better days, too. I also have a box of sawdust and charcoal that was once a Duncan Phyfe chair...
