Current German Carbine Reproductions

Jan Balcar · 08-30-2003, 06:11 AM

My carbine is made by BÃ?Â¶ddecker & Wagner (Wagner & Sohn predecessor) some three years ago. I bought it in Germany from an another dealer. The carbine is very well crafted. Wooden parts are well fitting and made from first class wood. BUT: It is NOT the 1902 carbine reproduction!

It is P.08 (no grip safety, short frame!) with long barrel (302 mm from muzzle to end of chamber) and removable stock. Carbine lacks extra spring, the regular recoil spring (on my piece!) is too strong, to recoil.

Three years ago I heard something about version with fixed (non removable) stock.
