There are "Papa Nambu" and "Baby Nambu". But it's the first time that I saw a "Papa-Baby Nambu". Here:

It's so uncommon. Since the ad will disappear one day, I will steal the pictures:

Default After more threats, luger carbine finally arrived

I finally received my finished luger carbine from "lugerman" on Wednesday. Wow, what a struggle after waiting almost a year. It is pretty well done. The donor gun was obviously a nice gun with no pitting. The commercial proofs are sharp, and all letters and numbers are sharp. The donor was a matching number 1920 commercial. Here are a couple of pictures of the gun. The gun does have the carbine type frame extension, but instead of a wedge like the 1902 and 1920 carbines, it has a screw from the bottom like a 1920 commercial Navy carbine (rare). Also, it does not have nor does it need an assist spring. Not up to the quality of a Martz, but very acceptable.

Default luger carbine

For some reason, the pictures are not true colors of the wood. The wood matches, and is darker than the picture of the gun, and lighter than the picture of the stock. Probably the different background colors.
