...And it stands for...???...
![]() Well, if you wanted, you could deepen the chamber of these to make them 30 Mauser... ![]() Edit: I would guess it would take a lot of grinding/milling/filing to get 30 Mauser cartridges (full length) to feed anywhere near reliably...Frame as well as magazine follower modification... Single shot maybe, pushing cartridges in by hand from the top...With a reduced load... I imagine firing surplus 'military' 30 Mauser in a re-chambered Luger would have similar effect to firing 30 cal Tokarev cartridges in a C96 Mauser...But more so... Maybe if you had 30 cal wadcutters, seated to an OAL of ~1.360" in the Mauser cases...
