Thought folks here in the USA would enjoy seeing the photos. This one must be a hoot to shoot...!

Interesting sights also..

btw. at least one person in Norway enjoy seeing the photos as well;)

regards

sorry about that..
I have tryed to explain it on an earlyer post, here it goes;

The word "HÃ?Â¥vamÃ?Â¥l" means "The speek of the tall" and contains old norwegian "liferules" or "words of wisdom" written around 10 up to 13 century (wiking erea). Direct translation from v. 38 is:

"Weapons to menn on hill not to walk a step from, unknown when on road outside it can be question aboud spear."

So.. if your out in the world, always keep your weapon close to you. I guess the world has not changed that mutch I'm afraid..

Hope that explains;)

SwissDaggers has one for sale as well. See his Luger section :

Pete, I bet that is a tack driver. I've owned three .30s over the years. All shot extremely well. I used to bet friends that I could take the cap off of a soda bottle at 30 paces with one shot,with the last one. I won nearly every time.

Is that the standard Mauser rear main toggle pin?? The flange on it seems pretty large...also it seems as if the receiver is quite a'ways back?? perhaps some geometry changes to accomadate the rear sight /toggle ass'y??? Pretty neat, I've always had a hanker'n for one, or both of these... best to all, til...lat'r.....GT <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" />

Here's three from my safe: The middle one is my "Armadillo Gun" in 30 Luger. The other two are 9mm.

Ed, I'm disappointed, no PEARL grips!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />

His PEARL grips are on loan to the PIMP museum Hugh! <img border="0" alt="[hiha]" title="" src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" />

Actually John, they are on the gun, but y'all make fun of me, so they are strategically hidden! :D

Hey Ron,

Maybe this one should be your next shooter...probably need some sort of rifle scabbard for a holster, though...

Imagine you can shoot this one lying down on your back, holding the end of the muzzle with your feet... :D

Don't understand how a barrel like that can move backwards fast enough to let it cycle rounds without fault.. So much mass in motion :rolleyes:

I agree Morgan... the recoil spring would have to be lightened in force, or the loads would have to be much heavier than normal in my opinion for this Luger to work reliably...

You would need a full strength or better recoil spring to return to battery with the heavy barrel. On the other hand it would not be too much of a problem to run heavy loads with the bull barrel. This is the same action design as used in the carbine. the design strength is there, the only question is proofing for heavy loads. (A question that does not carry much weight with 44 Special shooters.)

Hugh, are you keeping the Texas roads safe for tie rods with that piece you have?

I haven't been seeing as much road kill in my area lately! :D

Nice to see a couple of my former lugers again. TH

Pete, I would'nt mind having that one. If I knew it would function properly. I do a lot of long range shooting with handguns. We fill milk jugs with water. I can hit them pretty consistantly out to about 300yds with my .41 S&W.
I love this pistol. Anything I want to hit within 200 yds with it is pretty much toast.And about 75% at 300 yds. Getting a little more difficult. Now that my eyesight is getting fuzzy, but still do pretty good.

I've also got a Shilo Sharps #1 sporter, that I do 500 yd shooting with. It's really a kick to shoot off of cross sticks. http://forums.lugerforum.com/lfupload/100_0034.jpg
