This is an unbelievable find for the 1903 Springfield rifle collection that has an original Pederson Device. This is an original, unaltered in like NEW condition "40 round" stick magazine for the ultra rare 1903 Pederson Device as used on the 1903 Mark I Springfield rifle. We all have seen several of the ultra rare Pederson Device for sale over the years, even though they were supposed to have been destroyed, but how many spare original magazines have you seen?? Maybe one magazine for every 3-4 Pederson Devices at best? So now you know how rare these things are, as they were all separated from the Pederson Device and really, literally destroyed. Many collectors look for years to try and find these accessories and cannot. So now is your chance to obtain an original like new example for your collection. The side of the magazine has various viewing ports that are numbered "5 to 40" to identify how many rounds as in the magazine. It has the original gray/black parkerized finish, on the magazine body and follower with both appearing to have only been used/inserted into a device a couple of times.

Excellent condition with 98% plus of the original parkerized finish overall. Magazine spring is strong. A truly rare, almost impossible part to find on the open market today!
