Looking for 1905 45 ACP Luger blueprints

Judging from the firing results of the .45 Luger test piece and more modern firing of the Aberman and Norton guns lead me to believe that both grip angles were successfully engineered to feed and function reliably.

I am going to tool up for a a 45 GAP conversion.

That way i retain a 55 degree angle everyone holds so dear,
and keep the price tag at 3000 and get a 45 caliber out of it.

Will see how well that starts moving.

And then after i learn my lessons , i will move in to 1907 model.

I really do not want to venture in a 200K project without some support from the world.

But i will keep thinking about it and moving in that direction.
