Hey guys I bought this walther model 4 police issue with pol chemnitz holster A week or 2 back and it shoots like a charm with the matching magazine but it had a 2nd magazine in the holster when I picked it up that's an oddity.
The magazine looks the same except for some witness holes on one side but how it fits is even more mysterious. First it has no markings of any kind except for a sedation in the back slightly above the heel which catches in the grip when you try ro remove it from the gun! Pain. Second the mag sits way too high up to actually feed properly and causes these weird upward stovepipe. The mags look identical at first but qhen loaded into the gun and looking at the feed ramps they are quite different.
I'm trying to find the origin of this 2nd magazine maybe it's for a model 3/4 transitional?

Might be a Browning or a Dreyse
