wwiifirearms Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 What would this fit? Looks like a .45 or similar size. http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss281/wwiifirearms/null_zps91c0e73c.jpg http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss281/wwiifirearms/null_zpsa4b10510.jpg http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss281/wwiifirearms/null_zps2641d1e1.jpg http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss281/wwiifirearms/null_zps3da0c563.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwiifirearms Posted January 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 I'll try to get the floor plate pic tomorrow. I think it is flat, no seam or button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwiifirearms Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I was wrong, it does have a button http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss281/wwiifirearms/null_zpsf5dc482c.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StooperZero Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 ummmm Possibly a ghetto attempt to convert a cheapo Tec-9 mag to fit a Mac clone missing the mag catch assembly OR one that had the ball detent removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirtyround Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Certainly a mystery thus far, my curiosity is about to get the best of me. It appears to be a single stack or semi-staggered magazine, I guessing 10 or so rounds. My best guess is some mag done up to fit a modified version of the Mauser Broom handle pistols that were imported and modified in the 70's and 80's to accept detachable mags. Would love to see someone ID this thing with documents and imagery to back it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwiifirearms Posted January 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I thought Mauser, but it appears much larger than a .30 or 9mm.A guy set up next to me at the OGCA had it, and it went home with him, so I no longer have access to it. I'll see him again at future OGCA meetings if someone does ID it.-Ray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StooperZero Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 since theres no side notches, or magwell 'stops'Im thinking a PISTOL that uses a mag release latch on the bottom. IMHO it looks like something FAC would have sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmagee1917 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I would say that your hand would depress the metal tail , then the mag would go into a well , then releasing the tail would allow the tang of it to lock into a cut in the rear bottom of the mag well. The scratches would support this. Don't recall any such pistol or carbine with this set-up.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james m Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Well he said in the 1st post he thought it was a 45. Mauser made some broomhandles in that caliber so I suppose it's possible that's what this mag is for.Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StooperZero Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 from what I've dug up. 13rd magwere 2 versions. one like this and one with a suomi style lever release. When I pick my C96 up next week , I'll have to see what single stack fits 7.63 good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSMGguy Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Judging from the floor plate, there's a noticable taper from front to rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Militaria CII Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Not 712 or M1930 as it has a flat follower and Mauser mags have stepped follower among other details that this mag does not have.
