13 postings on this thread and 4 of them are yours, to discuss, but do not show anything.

MY latest shooter (below) - my 1914 Erfurt Artillery, I can't seem to find any pictures right now :confused:

Ed - Which one is the shooter - the carbine or the one with the white grips? (I just had to ask). But seriously, what is that slabside barrel gun with the white grips?

This one came my way from an estate liquidation; I got it at a very good price. It has 2 WW II-era mags (S/42 and a small k-marked). Both function fine in the long Swiss frame with a 9mm DWM receiver. I have a new Swiss receiver, 7.65 mm barrel and a Swiss magazine coming in from LugerDoc to get it back to a righteous Swiss shooter. Not collectible, but shoot-able. A little cosmetic surgery in the future with "Thor" is also planned.

Bob,
I like it.:thumbup:

I did solve the long shank barrel/short receiver when I installed the original '06 barrel though, by using a spacer or breeching washer. Yes, the 6" bbl is installed in a "reject" Kreighoff receiver, note the reject star marking.

I have a similar mismatch on my navy shooter, when I used/use it with a 4" bbl/short receiver. Shown in the lower picture below with my Erma .22lr kit installed on the 4" combination.

As you can see, grips and frame finish were "improved" along the way and I now have a second muzzle nut for the conversion, thanks to lugerdoc!

All-:thumbsup:
Keep the pictures coming guys!

Thanks, Don. What's nice about this forum is that everyone here loves to shoot their Lugers...maybe not the highly-collectibles, but the shooters. So everyone is into building great range guns of every description. It's almost as much fun as collecting the rare ones. I'm having a good time planning out the work on my Swiss rebuild. LugerDoc, Thor and G.T. have been VERY helpful, as have the forum members here answering my questions on finish, etc.

Here's an Interarms I used to have. We shot it a little; my daughter REALLY liked shooting it.

Well, technically it's not a shooter anymore, as I retired from sports shooting due to rheumatic problems, but here is the configuration I used to practice with. The Japanese stock helped to give me some additional support, with a bum shoulder to work with :)

The pistol was also used to test an experimental adjustable Mauser rear sight, that never went into production.

Nowadays its retired and sleeping with the rest, inside the refurbishers card board box. The pistol is an ex-VoPo refurb, done by Frankonia in the late 1990s.

Is that an MGC stock?

Hi Vlim,

do you have any more detailed / disassembled pics of the experimental adjustable rear sight assembly ?

was the sight and the shroud anchored by the center and rear axles or welded on ?
was elevation adjustment in the front sight only with the toggle rear sight windage only ?

looks better than the production sport pistol !!!

thanks for sharing
Bill

Roland, yes that is an MGC stock. Although made as a stock for non-firing replicas it actually functions quite well.

Bill: The rear sight was held in place by the rear toggle pin. The rear toggle had been cut to make room for the sight. Problem was that the sight would move upwards during recoil, as it was only fixed at the front and not at the rear.

"Roland, yes that is an MGC stock. Although made as a stock for non-firing replicas it actually functions quite well. "

Just a reminder/information for US luger owners:
This stock is not legal to be attached to any luger in the US; one exception- a 16" barreled carbine clone could have it attached and not fall afoul of the NFA.

Vilm is in Europe.

I think you'll have plenty to work at it before you take it to the range!
Good luck!
