Mine has been on order for a few weeks too... glad to see manufacturing and shipment happen!

Does the DVD contain the book in PDF format, or in a form that could be easily transported on a memory stick or SD card?

I'd love to be able to bring the book in softcopy form to gun shows with me. It will facilitate verifying the correctness of pistols at shows using either a PC or a tablet.

Marc

Unfortunately, not a thing. There were so many other things that I wanted to see during my brief 5 hours (I could have spent a month) that it barely caught my attention. Since Dr. Sturgess does not deal in "bubba's basement" or gunsmith flights of fancy, I would guess that it may be one of the odd-ball 1920s carbines, or something offered by Pacific Arms or other dealers of that era that would make up Lugers in just about any barrel length you wanted. At any rate it almost certainly is legitimate, I just don't know its pedigree.
