my 1915 DWM with my friends TM 08

[img]biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] Sweet Dieter!

I love it!

tried to send three pics in one mail. didn't work.only one. how is it posible, to see all my uploaded pics at rennlist? if i try to upload for a second time and add a pic which i loaded up at rennlist, it doesn't work.

Guten Tag Dieter!

These are GREAT photographs.

I deleted your additional posts after figuring out how to do multiple photos in the same post and edited your first post to show all three.

All you have to do is put a <return> between your image URL's for each photo. Use the edit function (pencil and paper icon) on the first post to see how the post should look to show multiple images.

best to you

Bremar! Ausgezeichnet! Wunderbar! and all those other words that I don't know that mean outstanding.
RK

Thanks for your kind words. But you mean "Prima", not brema, it means great or good. D08

That's what I get for acting like I know something. Great looking rig.

I have one of these that is a BLAST to shoot with an artillery and shoulder stock!!
Lonnie

Dieter, how does that drum magazine affect the balance?

i don't know how the balance is affectesd. i never shot with it (but i'd like to do it) , i put it only in for a pic. but i'm looking forward to buy one, the average-offer is too expensive. i wait for an opportunity. first i have to buy an ari-luger.

Dieter, are you not allowed by law to use the drum magazine in anything but an arty?

Ed; I believe the drum (unlike a shoulder stock) is ok with any Luger.
Lonnie

Lonnie, I believe Dieter is in Germany, so I was told that shoulder stocks there are okay, but I don't know about drum magazines!

The use of high capacity magazines such as the TM-08 shown in these photos is perfectly legal in the U.S. to use with any Luger.

Both these magazines and shoulderstocks are legal in Germany where Dieter lives.

What is not legal here in the U.S. is the creation of a new high-capacity magazine (Except for official law enforcement use)... It must be one of the originals...

The use of shoulder stocks on the other hand, is ONLY LEGAL with the same type of Pistol that they were manufactured to be used with.

For example, An GENUINE Artillery Luger can be used with a GENUINE (or reproduction) Artillery Luger stock according to the ATF.

BUT an Artillery Luger CANNOT legally be used with any other stock including a Navy Luger stock without violating the law. The reverse is also true for Navy Lugers...They can't legally be attached to either an Artillery Model stock or a custom stock of any kind.

See the ATF website for the List of C&R handguns that are exempt from shoulder stock restrictions.

If you desire to stock one of your Lugers that is not specifically listed on the ATF Curio & Relic List as exempt from the National Firearms Act of 1934, then you must make application to the ATF for creation of a Short Barreled Rifle (or SBR) and pay a $200.00 federal tax up front BEFORE you acquire the pieces necessary to stock the Luger...

I advise all Luger owners to play it safe... and don't jeopardize the right to own firearms in the U.S. by a felony conviction for being ignorant of the law.

If you are not sure about whether a particular configuration would be considered in violation of the NFA, please don't hesitate to ask here on the forum... Many senior members here would be glad to advise you so you don't get into trouble with Uncle Sam.

The drums are free available on every gunshow (but very expensive). If i buy one i could take it to my shooting-club and shoot with it. Only the side-plate for full-automatic-fire is forbidden to use, but i can own it. Does anybody know, how such a side-plate was built? Are there any plans?

Dieter,

While I have heard of full-auto Lugers I have never seen more than a photograph of them from a distance. I too would be curious about stories of such Lugers and how many were made. If you ever actually examine one, please post some clear photographs for all of us to see...

thanks

I am green with envy ! Or is it that I am just hungry ?

I think it is an absolutly beautiful example of fine craftsmanship to see what you have.
Thank you for sharing with your fellow "Gun Nut's".

A 32 round pistol magazine costing up to $1100 that requires a $300-400 loading device so that a person can shoot a pistol no less than fifty years old is only outlawed in the People's Republik of Kalifornia. That's so adolescent fellons won't spray their neighbors with it.

Outside of Europe the cheapest source of Trommel mags is Australia where the ANZACs brought them home to shoot Roos after WWI. Now they are selling them off 'cause they can't own pistols...just like the Brits.

Hello, Mr. Sabato!

You asked about a picture of the full auto-sideplate. I have seen one picture in the book "Die Pistole 08", a German book about the Luger from Achim Goertz (is it true that he died???). I can't post a scan of it, because I have no scanner, but perhaps one of the other members of the forum can?
Some years ago these sideplates were sold in Germany and you can find them sometimes in ebay.
