Hi Guys n Gals
I am in need of a magazine for a Voere 22 calibre rifle.
I was working on it this winter for a good friend and fellow officer and have managed to lose it somewhere.
It is a German made rifle EXCELLENT construction! Came with an aluminium bedding block and a crisp clean trigger right out of the box. Mind you this gun is 30-50 years old. If anyone knows where I can obtain a replacement magazine or one that is compatible please let me know.

I didn't look now, but I think there is a difference between a semi-auto and a bolt-action.
I might have a magazine somewhere, but then there is transport...
by the way: is your Voere German made? When I'm not mistaken mine are made in Austria... you know that land where you can find Vienna and Tiroler-trousers
edit: and I have to correct myself (getting old I guess). My semi-auto carries the name 'VOERE KUFSTEIN AUSTRIA' and the bolt-action 'VOERE VOEHREBACH GERMANY'. You cannot exchange magazines, unless you use a file till the magazine-catch of the semi-auto can also reach the cut-out.
By the way: I think I can use the same magazines of the bolt-action Voere also in the Mauser bolt-action. They carry the letters "REP" on the bottom.

Sorry to hear that. Have you tried Gun Parts Corporation? They have a website and may be able to assist you. Hope this helps. All the best...

There are a few listed on eBay, but as Aloys said, there is a difference between the bolt action and auto mags. From what I have been able to read, those for the auto have AUT stamped on the bottom. |
but a few strokes with a file will turn a "REP" into an "AUT", you only have to watch out not to harm the folower to much.
but ITD still didn't specify semi-auto or bolt... nor how big (there are at least 2 different sizes, 5 ir 10 rounds and maybe I also might have a 15 rounds somewhere, but that's a PITA to use or maybe mine is just a bad production)
