«为了测试该弹匣的容量，笔者尝试了用塑料材质的训练弹模徒手压弹，压到20发时就能感受到较大的阻力，压到32发时就难以继续了。考虑到弹匣底盖较薄，托弹簧大幅度压缩时可能会撑坏底盖，笔者就将弹模退了出来。根据弹匣内剩余空间估测，该弹匣的容量接近40发。尽管过了九十余年，托弹簧的簧力仍然非常大，有利于供弹可靠性。该枪的枪机质量很轻，理论射速不低，一个强有力的托弹簧对于射击时的可靠性是很有帮助的，就是徒手压弹会非常费力。»

Article at zhuanlan.zhihu.com calls 军博馆藏的四川造“毛瑟”冲锋枪.
Тrаnslate:
"To check the magazine’s capacity, the author tried to equip it manually using plastic mock-ups of cartridges. Already on the 20th round, significant resistance was felt, and after the 32nd it became almost impossible to continue. Considering that the magazine cover is quite thin and with a strong compression of the spring it could simply be knocked out, the author decided to remove the layouts. According to estimates of the remaining free space, the full magazine capacity is about 40 rounds.
Despite the fact that more than ninety years have passed, the feeder spring still retains great elasticity, which has a positive effect on the reliability of the feed. The bolt of this weapon is quite light, and the theoretical rate of fire is high, so a powerful spring is necessary for the stable operation of automation, although equipping such a magazine with bare hands is an extremely laborious task."
Well,
It have to be at least 32. Better 35, because author of article try 80 yeas old gun - it was in better condition then produced.
