I dunno about that. The tool looks just like the takedown tool that came with the H&K P7s. Neither those, nor Lugers, really required any assistance to load their 7-8 round mags. There were no "hi-capacity" mags in those days. But I'll confess to having never field-stripped a Luger, so I don't know if it requires tools.
