Another good source is Steve Jackson Games' GURPS High-Tech (link).

According to my copy, the Luger 9x19mm Parabellum has an 8-round magazine (plus a ninth round in the chamber), and could also use a 32-round "snail-drum" magazine.

Do a search for GUN SMITHING. Then look for materials on Military weapondary. You have to be creative when you think about things such as the evolution of firearms. Also check out the History Channel Weapons of War series and History of The Gun Series. They should yeild some info for you. Best of luck.

Probably 8. That's the most universally accepted I could find, although I did find a couple places claiming more.

According to http://www.gebirgsjaeger.4mg.com/Gebirgs3.htm#Weapons it was 8 rounds

Another source claiming 8
http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg67-e.htm

another source claiming 8
http://www.thesouthafricanwargamer.co.za/weapons.htm

According to http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/revie...ger_review.htm :

12 rounds with a standard magazine
50 rounds with a drum magazine
