unusual Luger

It's shooter made up from parts, with a turned down rifle barrel added. This was a fairly common practice back in the 50's and 60's. Replace a worn out .30 Luger barrel or add a longer .30 cal. barrel made from a rife barrel. In this case it appears it may have been an 8mm Mauser barrel bored out to 9mm.

The problem is that he either thinks he has something special, or is trying to make someone else think so.
