I have a G1 and I would be interested in buying some if you're willing. I personally don't know what they're worth but it would be cool to have actual German mags.
I guess I was trying to ask, is there a difference between G1 mags and FAL mags? I know a G1 is a type of FAL, but other than the country of manufacture is there a difference between the magazines?
Nothing significant, Metric is Metric. There will be minor variations from place to place but those were "User Preference modifications" but it was standardized that all must interchange with all others.
Austrian made mags for the StG58 (another metric FAL variant) had "witness holes" in the spine to help keep track of rounds left, for example but even then they fit any metric FAL.
(No2 & No3)
they probably didn't make FAL or the mags from the start, rather bought or it was given to them through military assistance program, then they bought the license to produce their own later on
